[9.0] "While not as great as Bullet Club, the Elite remain an all-time great faction. People who despise the Bucks will give try tanking their score, but they are simply elite. The Bucks are the best tag team of the 21st century and everyone else in the Elite has been incredible. Kenny, Cody, Jack Perry, and now Okada are all amazing wrestlers. Countless classic matches and stories with no real low points or bad stories."

KyleEnjoysWrestling wrote on 16.05.2025:

[8.0] "I have never been too high on the Young Bucks, but them paired with Kenny as an offshoot of the Bullet Club back during their NJPW run worked in a big way. They essentially rode that momentum all the way to the foundation of America's second largest wrestling company. During their time as a group, it's undeniable that they are not what they once were & are not as popular or cool as they were pre AEW. But I think they still have a place in AEW & they have evolved enough where I don't feel like they are as lame now as a group such as the Bullet Club is."

UltimoDragon wrote on 21.02.2025:

[0.0] "The drizzling shits is too kind of a description. While a lot of the individual members are passable on their own, the collective group has proved toxic for AEW. Booked as EVPs and going over any talent has led to a general hate of the group not as heels but as marks for themselves. Their best work was with Bullet Club before it became the watered down splinter groups it sadly now is. Nothing's Elite about the Elite anymore as they cling to relevancy and book themselves and their cronies into positions real stars could occupy. Cody ran fast and ran far for a reason."

[10.0] "An amazing faction that opened my eyes to a larger world of professional wrestling. Not to mention the amazing talent apart of this faction like Kenny Omega, The Bucks, Cody, Okada, and many others. Also BTE is amazing and I really miss it. Amazing team."

[5.0] "I'm very mixed on this "stable" of sorts. There are wrestlers here that I really like (Cody, Omega, Okada, Cole) but I find that the majority of the work I enjoy from them comes outside of the stable. When together, it's a lot more of a mixed bag. I'm in the minority here, and that's fine. But often when they're together, the team I'm not crazy about (the Bucks) takes over the influence of their match structures and it's hard to get invested, especially with the level of hype they have. And if I'm counting guys like Nakazawa and Cutler, that takes even more points away because to me, they are simply not very good."

Sol wrote on 15.06.2024:

[10.0] "A great stable that changed wrestling for me. There is lots of talent but I never understood why Cutler and Nakazawa are in it though."

danzitorock wrote on 04.05.2024:

[9.0] "Once a sub-group of the Bullet Club, guys like Omega, Cody and the Bucks became so popular that they had to have their own thing, and that is The Elite, a great faction with many great moments, that specially helped to create the first real competition WWE have in almost 20 years, so of course they are extremely important to wrestling and changed the industry in many ways. The Elite always generated great stories, but I'm particularly really intrigued with this new version with Okada, Perry and the Bucks, might be my favorite version ever of the group."

Zander wrote on 01.01.2024:

[9.0] "I cant tell if theyre disbanded or what but if they are that is really sad because they are one of the best factions in AEW. They most put on great matches and can tell good stories despite what others say."

Foxmagic37 wrote on 04.09.2023:

[3.0] "Can we really consider them a Wrestling group in s strict sense? Some of the guys are mostly backstage friends, it reminds me of the Kliq so much. The group is like an inside joke between them, only differing with the Kliq in that they put their stuff on the internet. Some of these guys are ok by their own, but goddamn they are annoying together."

crs285 wrote on 03.07.2023:

[8.0] "Iconic stable. Got so popular they could be a major part of the formation of the second largest American pro wrestling company. They had a tendency to have bad feuds and focus more on internal drama. Most of the members are great in ring talents."

[10.0] "The group that changed the business. It is so successful that Bullet Club was at it's best when the Elite were still part of it"

gargoylesmain wrote on 21.05.2023:

[10.0] "I would argue that half of these guys listed aren't a part of the Elite, but rather allies via the Bullet Club or other personal association, with their own specific branding (Supercliq, Super Elite, Undisputed Elite etc), rather than the core ELITE group. Regardless of that pedantry, this is a group that has been successful in every meaningful metric: making money, earning gold and accolades, in-ring innovation and storytelling."

MainEventMaster wrote on 26.04.2023:

[10.0] "Their legacy will forever be remembered, they are among the most impactful group of wrestlers EVER, pure greatness and fun."

yourhero wrote on 29.01.2023:

[7.0] "These guys can be entertaining but have overstayed their welcome with me. They were a fun, funny, knock-off nWo that added some quirky uniqueness to it. Kenny is a top-level wrestler and the Bucks deserve some credit as well, but overall they've become overplayed and take themselves too seriously."

DammitChrist wrote on 01.09.2022:

[10.0] "You have one of the 1 best professional wrestlers on the planet in Kenny Omega, 1 of the greatest tag teams in the industry (along with FTR), a great overall talent in Cody Rhodes (formerly), another great underrated talent in Adam Cole, and a pretty darn good well-rounded wrestler in Adam Page ALL in 1 faction. Plus, there's technically Britt Baker too (who I strongly associate as an 'Elite' member by proxy since she seems to side/support these guys as another OG name in AEW) who's arguably the most charismatic/well-rounded woman in the company. Most of these names are primarily responsible for building up a new wrestling company in AEW from scratch, and they've significantly changed the landscape of professional wrestling within the past 5 years alone. The business is better off WITH the Elite's impact and accomplishments."

coppercowries wrote on 20.08.2022:

[10.0] "A group so influential and innovative that an entire promotion was started around them. What else needs to be said? Even if AEW folds one day, that won't lessen the impact that these men had on the wrestling industry as a whole. Some of the greatest story tellers and biggest hearts in the industry."

vel wrote on 28.06.2022:

[6.0] "A lot of people respect these guys for what they are doing a revolution in wrestling, and it's probably right. But for me, it's still more important how the group looks directly on the shows. And I never really enjoyed their chemistry. They look like a group of random people, each one on their own. As if they are recruiting anyone into their ranks, unite with other groups, but do not have a common chemistry. Only Young Bucks and Kenny Omega had it, everyone else seems superfluous. They almost destroyed the Bullet Club, and now they have a very strange relationship with former members of the Undisputed Era."

PhenomenalGun wrote on 13.06.2022:

[9.0] "Now that they've removed the dead weight that is Blandman Page and added the charismatic Adam Cole, the terrific in-ring worker O'Reilly, and the solid hand Bobby Fish they really feel like an all-star group! A faction of 6 amazing in-ring talents where you can switch them around on the card and they can get a great match out of practically anyone. Honestly though, they could do away with all their entourages like Cutler, no clue why he still a job other than being the Bucks' friend. Other than that, not much to say The Undisputed Elite's in-ring work speaks for itself, doesn't it."

[9.0] "One of the best stables at the moment, obviously there is a lot of favoritism, but I personally love the team, they are very good fighters who always show their potential in the ring."

[9.0] "One of the most popular factions in pro wrestling history. Instrumental in founding AEW. Comprised of highly talented individuals. Involved in some of the best wrestling matches in history."

LivingLegend wrote on 07.10.2021:

[1.0] "Oh man I hate this faction. I'm not familiar with their work outside of AEW so that's what this review is based on. The worst faction in pro wrestling today. Filled with egotistical clowns who actively shatter the small remains of kayfabe that exist in modern wrestling by using insider terms. They are trying to be cool but they just come off as obnoxious jokers. None of the active members besides Adam Cole can cut a promo. The Young Bucks almost never put over other talent, and I don't just mean them losing matches. Not a fan of the Good Bros but they don't really detract anything from the stable. Kenny Omega isn't horrible but he should really leave the talking to Callis. He is atrocious on the mic. Absolute travesty of a stable overall, and having two bonafide jobbers serve as some sort of lackies in an already bloated stable makes it even worse. Just god awful. The sooner they split the better AEW, and the whole pro wrestling business will be."

Lyno123123 wrote on 25.09.2021:

[10.0] "(10/10) The most powerful faction in wrestling history and its not even close. no wrestling company in history ever have a wrestling company named after them. not one. and to top it all off they have the best tag team ever and one of the best wrestler on the planet in the last 20 years named Kenny omega and one of the best WWE wrestler ever named Adam cole. Not one can touch their passion for modern pro wrestling."

Ontrol wrote on 11.09.2021:

[9.0] "I was one of the people who really were not a fan of The Elite back in the day when it was Omega/Page/Bucks/Rhodes/Scurll. More than anything I thought they were just boring (as a faction) and their prominence was weird to me. This new direction for them is great though. I love that Omega has taken a once prestigious group and turned into a sleezefest. Omega is Omega and I think he's great. I still have the same reservations for the Bucks as wrestlers that a lot of people do but as characters they are really entertaining. I get why people have criticisms for the Good Brothers but I think they fit the dynamic well and are good enough in matches. Callis is a really great mouthpiece. Cutler and Nakazawa are hilarious stooges. I'm very interested to see how Cole fits into the group."

No One wrote on 06.09.2021:

[10.0] "Highly popular group of guys who brought a whole new wave of worldwide popularity to NJPW. Alongside Tony Khan, started their own North American Mainstream Wrestling promotion (AEW). Incredible drawing power & merchandise selling machines. Produced tons of memorable matches (Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks take the cake on this). Is currently the best Heel faction in pro wrestling. The Good Brothers are the weak links, but Kenny, The Bucks, & even Don Callis with his promo ability can carry them along. Their gang beatdowns are fun & entertaining. Kenny & The Bucks continue to produce high quality matches. They all hold championship belts (They have all the gold, they have all the power) mentality. Brandon Cutler & Michael Nakazawa are funny & entertaining goofball stooges."

MrIslamy wrote on 27.08.2021:

[10.0] "Pretty much everyone in The Elite has a lot of charisma and can put on a 5-star match. They are great heels and are really fun to hate. Their YouTube show is pretty good too."

medouse wrote on 12.12.2020:

[9.0] "My review is based on only the original members: Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson and Kenny Omega. You don't need 10-20 people to have a great stable and ELITE is a perfect example of that. The best tah team in history - The Young Bucks got together with one of the best singles wrestler in history - Kenny Omega. This could not possibly fail and they turned out to be the best 3-man group in professional wrestling history."

Matt Macks wrote on 03.03.2020:

[10.0] "They have done exceptionally well since their split from the Bullet Club. Marty is the booker and highest-paid wrestler in ROH. Everyone else is executive vice president in AEW, while working their asses off each and every week to make the promotion a success. Cody has become the a re-imagined version of every 80s babyface ever and makes it work for a modern audience. The Bucks are still fun to watch in the ring and established a highly successful YT series (BTE). Kenny Omega is working hard to grow women's wrestling, while still being available to be the absolute megastar presence on any AEW show. And finally, Hangman Page over the last few months is riding the biggest push in his career, and most importantly, driven by the audience, who loves the Drunken Emo Cowboy gimmick. All of these men are a pleasure to watch in 2020 and their names have become household names: every wrestling fan knows who they are. Name recognition is one of the most important assets of any star and one that allows them to become truly... Elite."

[2.0] "The most annoying faction in wrestling today. A bunch of goofs whose matches come across like a mockery of wrestling who have somehow developed an extremely vocal and obnoxious fanbase that equates criticism of them and their promotion with criticism of wrestling altogether. I don't see the appeal in Kenny Omega talking about his Meltzer star ratings or the Young Bucks whining and acting like the "spoiled millennial" stereotype or Marty Scurll flapping his arms like a chicken while trying to break his opponent's fingers. I've never watched their Youtube show so I can't comment on that but if its anything like what they do on actual wrestling shows then watching it has to be a form of torture."

Makai Club wrote on 29.03.2019:

[4.0] "Can't say that I'm into the Elite as a good. I liked them when they were apart of Bullet Club and enjoy their antics somewhat but then whe formed their own thing, it all just got downhill from there for me. Being The Elite became a parody basically. Turned from a cool YT with a few jokes into a full blown skit and it just sums up Elite as a group. Really hate everything they've done for a while now. Good luck to their plans but interesting is at a low for me."
