# Young Bucks React To Free Agent Choosing AEW Over WWE

Kazuchika Okada chose the become All Elite instead of joining WWE, and AEW EVPs the Young Bucks have reacted.

Okada appeared on the March 6 episode of AEW Dynamite and was revealed as the [latest member of The Elite](https://wrestletalk.com/news/major-free-agent-chooses-aew-over-wwe-kazuchika-okada/) – siding with the Bucks as a heel trio to attack Eddie Kingston.

Footage from Okada’s first appearance as an AEW star can be seen below this news story.

The Young Bucks took to social media after the show to share their message about the signing of Okada, [tweeting](https://twitter.com/youngbucks/status/1765571887814373885):

*“Change the world. #theELITE”*

The AEW EVPs would also refer to the importance of Okada’s signing in another tweet, [stating](https://twitter.com/youngbucks/status/1765619520754835850):

*“The biggest signing in @AEW history!*

*“Welcome to the team @rainmakerXokada! #theELITE”*

The photo for that tweet, which can be seen below, not only featured a double handshake but also a very Triple H-esque finger point.
