Matt Jackson is tired of the disrespectand hes not sugarcoating it.
During an emotionally charged interview on Close-Up with Renee Paquette, the AEW EVP didnt hold back when addressing the lack of appreciation he and his brother Nick Jackson feel from fans and even some of their peers. The conversation took a sharp turn when Matt called out the perception that others are now the face of AEW, despite everything The Young Bucks have done to build the company from scratch.
Matt then delivered a gut-punch of a reality check about how he believes theyll never get the recognition they deserveat least not while theyre still here.
He painted a vivid picture of how people will only realize their value when its too late, accusing fans of praising AEWs current stars without acknowledging who helped pave the way.
Matt reminded viewers that he and Nick have been delivering at a high level for over two decadesand yet their contributions often go ignored in real time.
That role, according to Jackson, is to be the guys everyone loves to hateeven if theyre the ones doing all the heavy lifting behind the curtain.
This wasnt just another EVP promo or character work. It was a moment of brutal honesty from one of AEWs founders who feels erased from the narrative he helped write.
