The Young Bucks' sabbatical from AEW will likely result in them returning as heels and possibly as part of a heel stable.
Following the Bucks' loss to Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho at Full Gear, Brandon Cutler announced on social media that the brothers "will be taking some time away from wrestling." They have not been featured on their own YouTube show in several weeks either. Cutler would later state that the Bucks had "officially finished up with Being The Elite" as well.
Our own Dave Meltzer addressed Matt and Nick Jackson's status in today's edition of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
"They look to be doing a heel group with Brandon Cutler," Meltzer wrote. He also noted that Colt Cabana has been talked about for the group but his involvement is not certain.
"The idea is for them to take some time off and come back as heels with major impact," Meltzer continued. "It’s in the beginning stages and there’s no known time frame on when they will pull the trigger on it and they will return."
The Bucks recently filed to trademark the terms KTB Wrestling (Killing the Business Wrestling) and Superdick Party, although Meltzer writes that "KTB is not part of the AEW stable idea and right now is for outside AEW projects."
