The Young Bucks (Nick & Matt Jackson) recently spoke with Scott Fishman for Channel Guide Magazine about Ring Of Honor moving to Comet TV, PWG and more. Here is an excerpt from that interview where the tag team talks about doing big things in 2016 while in Ring of Honor.
Nick Jackson: “This year we want to make Ring of Honor our number one priority and make it as popular as possible. Not only having good matches, but we’d like to recruit a few big names and try to get them to do what we’ve just done. We want to make them the true alternative because right now we’re the alternative. I feel like WWE fans are looking for an alternative. We want to be bigger and for ROH to grow more and more. Right now people are searching and are not happy with what they are seeing on Mondays.”
Matt Jackson: “I’m not going to give anything away. We happen to be in a good spot where we are popular enough and have the leverage to make good relationships. We are trying to start things with other companies and hopefully that can help. It’s always good for the boys. Maybe we create something like what NXT has done with Evolve. We’re trying to do an outreach. It’s strength in numbers and talent. If we can do something like that, it’s great for everybody.”
“We want to do big things. We see ROH on the rise. We want to keep killing it, producing money and fans for the company. We want to help them like they helped us. We want to put on awesome matches. Hopefully, the brand becomes more popular. The houses are up. Fans are into it and buying the merch. It’s a good opportunity for Ring of Honor to jump in and pick up those fans. Right now wrestling is in a weird spot.”
