Rolling Stone Magazine recently interviewed Ring of Honor, Global Force Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling tag team The Young Bucks, during which The Bucks talk their recent contract bidding war, NXT and much more.

Below are some interview highlights:

Regarding the recently reported “bidding war” for The Bucks:

Matt: “It’s 100-percent true. Everyone has been hitting us up. We’re in a very good position. We’re blessed. In the old days, you could say, “Well Vince, WCW has been offering us this, what do you offer us?” We don’t need another company. We can say, ‘We do better than that on the indies, and can you beat us?’ It’s not like we have Ted Turner’s money, but we know what we can do on our own, and if you can’t beat that, then sorry, we can’t play ball. It makes negotiations really nice for us. We’re in the driver’s seat.”

Would They Ever Settle Down and Sign with WWE?

Matt: I mean, who’s to say? Right now, no. For one thing, I have a young family. I just couldn’t uproot my family for less money than I make right now. If we had an offer to go straight to TV or something, well that’s just a whole different thing. Of course, we’d love to entertain that idea. That’s the place to be. It would be fun to do it. Right now though? I don’t know. Of course, in five years, every person we know is going to be running the place. So they may just say, “Hey Bucks, you interested in coming on TV on Monday?” Who knows? Never say never.

Nick: I just couldn’t move my family to Florida at this point. If something changes, then maybe you’ll see us there. I own a home in California. Right now, mentally, I need to stay where I’m at. My wife told me three years ago that we’re never moving to Florida. I was like, “OK, well that rules out WWE then.” But in five years? Who knows, maybe we’ll need it.

How Has NXT Changed the Indy Scene?

Nick: “I don’t think it’s changed much of the indie scene. That’s a hard question to answer. NXT is essentially WWE’s independent company. I think they’re smart, because the indies are red-hot right now. We’ve been wrestling 11 or 12 years now, and now every show we go to there’s almost 1,000 people there. That wasn’t happening five years ago. WWE obviously sees where the money is.”

Matt: “I think it’s more that indie wrestling is changing NXT. They’re seeing what works out here, and what’s hot out here and they’re wanting some of that. They’re really gearing their product towards these types of fans. I think they saw that people were making money on the indies, and who doesn’t want more money? Of course Vince does. He’s going to want to get a piece of that.”
