Karl Anderson says that The Young Bucks’ All Elite Wrestling contracts are due to expire next year.
The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) were the founding fathers of AEW along with Kenny Omega and Cody Rhodes. They’ve been with the company since day one and have won numerous championship belts in the company as well.
While nobody expects the Young Bucks to leave the company when their contracts expire and go work someplace else, one can wonder how long these two wrestlers have got before they hang up their wrestling boots.

Karl Anderson Says Young Bucks’ Contract Expires Next Year

During a recent edition of the Talk’n Shop podcast, Karl Anderson talked about Matt and Nick Jackson’s AEW contract. Anderson says that their contract with the promotion will expire next year, although he didn’t provide any specifics.
Anderson wondered how much gas is still left in the tank for these two.
“The Young Bucks’ contract is done next year. I talk to them every single day. How much longer will the Bucks go, dude? I don’t know. When these guys are done and they’re done, you’re going to go, ‘Oh, hold on a second.’”

There’s no doubt that the Young Bucks have been one of the most influential tag teams of modern wrestling. They’ve been incredible in the ring, and have helped so many other talents in the business as well.
As much as the fans would love to see them in the ring forever, every wrestler has to step away from the ring eventually. In Matt and Nick’s case, they’ve been doing this for over two decades.
The brothers haven’t publicly discussed their future plans yet, so we don’t know what they’re going to do when their contract reaches expiration next year.
Do you think the Young Bucks will re-sign with AEW and continue wrestling on television or lean into a more backstage role?
