Two mđembers of The Kliq havđ°e weighed in on the âToo Sweetâ hand gesture controversy involving The Young Bucks and WWE.
Last month, WWE hit The Young Bucks with a cease and desist over the Bucks and other members of the BđŒullet Club using the âà”ČToo Sweetâ hand gesture made popular in the 90âs by The Kliq.
Kevin Nash was a guest on Sean Waltmanâs and two Kliq members discussed thđe Bucks uđ sing the hand gesture and WWEâs response.
Nash: If they want to call it âtoo sweet,â thatâs fine. To me, itâs like, really? Iâm sure somebody threw the âpeaceâ sign up for the first time. What are you gonna get intellectual rights on that?
Waltman: I honestly donât think they would have heard anything about it if they didnât do their liâ±ttle invasion thing. I thought that was great.
Nash: It keeps us alive.
Waltman: Thatâs what I said last week. People need to try and look at it from the other point of view. Now thereâs a whole, new generation, of young people that know about us. At least, (the Bucks fanbase) that might not have known aboutâ± us. They made it fresh again. I kind of dig that.
Nash: If youâre a member of The Rolling Stones and Pearl Jam wants to cover Satisfaction, I donât think I got a problem with it. Itâd be one thing if the guys were jabrones. But these are the young, talented guys that are basically emulating the thing that you did.
There you have it. Nash and Waê©Čltman have no issue with the Bucks and company using the hand gđŠ©esture. They even praised the duo for their work and essentially thanked them for keeping their name alive.
However, the cease and desist forced the Bucks to come up with a new gesture, which they debuted this past weekend at Global Wars. The gesture is now âOne Sweetâ as it involves dropping the pinky from the original âTwo Sweet.â
The Bucks may have mađde enemies within WWE, buđŻt they have the approval of two founding members of The Kliq.
