5 Possible ways Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks could return to AEW

The Elite is set to make a return to AEW and The Young Bucks have been instrumental in the creation of AEW. The EVPs played a huge part in getting the company off the ground alongside Cody Rhodes and All Elite President . Over the past three years, The Cleaner has also gone on to win the AEW World Championship, while Matt and Nick Jackson have captured the AEW Tag Team Titles a couple of times. The Elite truly ruled the roost in the Jacksonville-based Promotion. The signing of CM Punk in 2021 was a game-changer for the company. The former WWE Champion was a star on another level for Tony Khan's promotion. He was the biggest free agent in pro wrestling up to this point, and with good reason. The Second City Saint has proven his worth, with AEW drawing their biggest box office gate when CM Punk was in the main event, winning the company's top prize. But cracks were starting to show between the promotion's biggest star and its founding members. Things came to a head at the AEW All Out media scrum when CM Punk unleashed a verbal tirade on the EVPs. This led to the now-infamous backstage brawl, which led to all parties being suspended and removed from television for several months. Last week on AEW Dynamite, a cryptic was played featuring The Elite's greatest moments with the company before they faded into dust ala Thanos. Is Tony Khan trying to erase the memory of The Elite or is this signaling the return of Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks? Below are five possible ways The Elite could return to AEW.

What a match Last night, The Elite (Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks) won against the Dark Order and became the new (and first) AEW Trios champions !What a match Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks became the at All Out. However, The Elite was stripped of those titles barely a week later following an alleged backstage brawl with CM Punk. The AEW Trios Title is currently in the hands of . Upon The Elite's return, they might go after the championships they never lost. Both factions are no strangers to each other. The Young Bucks and The Lucha Brothers have battled each other across the United States and Mexico, while Kenny Omega and Pac have been opponents in AEW multiple times. A matchup between the trios would absolutely be a Dave Meltzer 5-star contest. Kenny Omega might not be exactly 100% as he was recovering from a serious injury that kept him out of competition for nearly a year. Therefore, the trios division is the perfect role for him upon his return.

#4 The Young Bucks challenges The Acclaimed for the AEW Tag Team Championship

Full results: The Young Bucks vs. The Acclaimed Full results: The Young Bucks vs. The Acclaimed The Acclaimed is the current AEW tag team champion and the most popular tandem in the company thanks to their 'scissoring' gimmick. However, they are still a relatively young duo and will need to defeat a few more established teams to prove their worth. There's no better measuring stick than The Young Bucks. The former AEW tag team champions will be a great test for Max Caster and Anthony Bowens. Caster has expressed his desire for his team to face The Young Bucks once again. Back in December 17, 2020, Dynamite, The Acclaimed faced the Bucks for the World Tag Team Championships. However, the then-upstart team was unsuccessful after Matt and Nick Jackson hit the BTE Trigger on Caster to retain their titles. In an interview with PWInsider, that he wants to face the EVPs to show that they are a different team now than they were two years ago. "I will say it’s been a year and a half since we’ve wrestled the Young Bucks and I would really like to get my hands on those guys again, and prove that from the team they wrestled back in 2020 when we were 10 matches in, we’re a completely different team now," Caster said. Once the Young Bucks potentially return, they will be eager to get back on top of the tag team mountain. It would be an outstanding contest between the two teams.

#3 Turn heel on the company and form a splinter group similar to NWO

Has anyone realised the smarks who say Eric Bischoff ripped off the NWO from a NJPW angle in order to discredit his work are often AEW fanboys who worship The Elite and The Bullet Club (NWO ripoffs)?Has anyone realised the smarks who say Eric Bischoff ripped off the NWO from a NJPW angle in order to discredit his work are often AEW fanboys who worship The Elite and The Bullet Club (NWO ripoffs)? The comparisons between The Elite and the New World Order have been endless. With Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks on the outs with Tony Khan and AEW right now, they could be motivated to carve their own path away from the rest of the roster. There has been a precedent in the past when the NWO formed a splinter company from WCW. Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash were the biggest stars in the promotion and outshone the rest of the roster. With the heat that Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks have gotten from the wrestling industry, it makes sense for them to lean into it and become a renegade faction that tries to destroy everything Tony Khan has sought to build with AEW. It could be a long drawn-out war that fuels the next year's worth of storylines.
