that involved them being openly against gay marriage years ago as well, but calling them nazis or alt right in 2023 when they've been quiet about their political beliefs is a big stretch.
When was this? The only "Young Bucks are secret alt-right" stuff I remember getting pulled up are like two retweets from Matt Jackson in 2009 where he retweets Bischoff calling Obama a SOCIALIST FRAUD and Jericho tweeting about wanting to punch a guy in an Obama mask on Halloween. These tweets were dug up by Brian Last/Jim Cornette, who in turn implied they had even more lovely political beliefs they weren't going to get into. But considering that they're happy to call most of the people in AEW gay pedophile domestic violence committers with zero evidence, it seems like they'd have eventually gotten around to their receipts for shittier things from the Bucks if they had them.

vocal about prop 8 voting against gay marriage in california years ago and shared similar bad takes about gay men with scorpio sky at the time on the early years of twitter, which have been long deleted unlike how those old RTs got broken on the website to look like them saying that stuff. Them being homophobic was known enough that Kevin Steen and Excalibur would make jokes about them being homophobic and point out how weird they'd be doing spots where they were accidentally put into compromising positions with each other or tag partners.

Ah, that would explain it, I was not paying attention to the Bucks/PWG that early. Undeniably lovely but also (like a lot of early PWG stuff) things that from all public indications the involved folks have progressed past as opposed to going further into the alt-right pipeline. Thank you for clarifying.

Their wrestling best friend is bisexual and they participated in an angle that heavily featured his queer coded relationship, plus AEW has consistently featured and employed queer wrestlers since the days you could count the roster on your hands and feet and EVP meant something.

They can't be very homophobic even if they're devout American evangelical Christians.

There’s a whole thing in their book about Chris Kanyon being a close friend and them not being bothered about him being gay when he came out to them, and they repeated pretty much all of it on his DSOTR episode.

Homophobia is probably not a thing for the bucks in 2023 even if it was at some point in history.

People forget that the bucks have been working since they were super young and grew up going to church in a trashy part of Southern California. (I know because I lived in that same exact area for years) I’m sure they were your bog standard Christian republicans for a while especially in the beginning but years of working with diverse people and traveling the world has probably opened them up to a lot of stuff they wouldn’t have been open to before.

I don't necessarily disagree with the overall point but Orange Cassidy just finished up a god run as International Champion. Tony was playing with that toy!

I completely disagree with it. Wrestling is fluid and ebbs and flows. If Tony were to immediately put cassidy into a world title program or whatever the same people would be saying it’s too quick. Cassidy got over as a workhorse let him do a nice little mid card thing where he can help get some younger guys over and then you can put him into a bigger program.

I just came to post this. I like Trevor but he has some hot takes sometimes. Hell the thing I like about AEW is that different people get pushed at different times so it isn't just the John Cena show or the Roman Reigns show.

Momentum is when your favourite wins all the time, and being buried is when they lose at all or aren’t on TV for a week

I loving love Orange Cassidy and he's been cemented as a guy you can now slot into any program at any place on the card. World Champion OC could happen, but he doesn't immediately need to go after MJF. This is the most WWE-brained take, and it's why that company had to make a special "at least u tried" world title for Seth Rollins.

Hey they have nWo listed so they st least saw no at wrestlemania helping Sting that one time

Also best faction is Four Hosemen so even that non-WWE WCW/NWA choice is wrong.
