Resumen del Editor

"The Young Bucks are two guys who not only beat the odds to become one of the greatest, most popular tag teams ever, but also two industry changing visionaries. Matt and Nick are two of the smartest, hard-working, passionate individuals I’ve met during my 28 year career. With the creation of AEW, The Bucks will definitely leave the pro wrestling industry in a much better place then they discovered it in." (Matt Hardy, multiple-time world tag team champion)

The electric and daring independent wrestling tag team tells their inspiring story, revealing how two undersized, ambitious amateur athletes from Southern California became the idols of millions of popular sports fans and coveted among the ranks of AEW’s elite wrestling lineup.

Famous for their highflying moves, Superkicks and viral videos, Matt and Nick Jackson are two of the hottest and most talented competitors in professional wrestling today. Known as the Young Bucks, this pair of ambitious brothers are an inspiration to both fans and aspiring wrestlers worldwide due to their message of resilience and determination. That they are also faithful family men devoted to their loved ones gives them additional appeal.

A warm, heartfelt story of hope, perseverance, and undying ambition told with the brothers’ wit and charm, Young Bucks begins in Southern California, where two young boys grew up dreaming of success and fame. Matt and Nick look back on the sacrifices they made to achieve their ambitions, from taking odd jobs to pay for their own wrestling ring to hosting backyard events with friends. They share their joy at being recruited into the amateur California circuit and the work it took to finally make it professionally, and speak frankly about what it means to have the support of millions of fans cheering their talents in arenas nationwide. The Young Bucks talk endearingly about their sport, their faith, and their families, sharing personal reflections and behind-the-scenes anecdotes while paying tribute to the wrestling acts and inspirations that came before them. They also elaborate on this historical time in the evolution of wrestling, as the sport and its culture dramatically change day by day.

Alternating between each brother’s perspective from chapter to chapter, this entertaining memoir is a complete portrait of what it means to grow into - and give back to - wrestling, the sport and profession they embody and love.

incredible for any fan of wrestling at any level

This book is a fantastic insight to the wrestling business from all sides. Whether you are an indi wrestling fanatic, to a casual watcher of AEW or WWE, this book is extremely insightful into the entire wrestling world. Excellent narration and you will fell bad having to pause it.

Great Origin Story

As an avid wrestling fan and supporter of TYB The Elite, BC etc. The rehashing of certain stories may feel redundant. the stories written about Matt & Nick's childhood was both entertaining, and thoughtfully written, and gives a great story as to how Matt and Nick became who they are today.
Excellent listen, finished in about 3 days at work.

Not just for wrestling fans

Amazing to hear about The Young Bucks experience on the way to starting AEW. I was there for so many of those matches and segments. Listening to their ascension to wrestling royalty was an experience in its own.

I hope after listening to this book, people understand how important All Elite Wrestling is for the wrestling business, not just to serve the ego of “The Elite” but for the progress of wrestling in the mainstream and to create more safe spaces for wrestlers to exhibit their art.

Thank you Young Bucks for all you’ve done.

love the boys

Loved hearing the stories of my favourite tag team glad to hear that IRL they are Christian AF
