Signature

The Bucks built a fast, choreographed style around the superkick party, the Meltzer Driver and the BTE Trigger. Alongside Kenny Omega and Cody Rhodes in The Elite, their independent-scene draw was a major reason All Elite Wrestling got off the ground in 2019.

They changed how wrestlers think about direct-to-fan business, using merchandise and video content to grow an audience without a national television deal.
