Known for his aggressive driving style and demeanor, he has earned several nicknames over the years, including "Rowdy" and "Wild Thing". He is also called "the Candy Man" due to his longtime sponsorship with Mars Inc., "Shrub" as a playful nod to being the younger brother of Kurt Busch (with a small bush being called a shrub), "Kyle Kush" because of his partnership with cannabis company 3Chi, and the self-proclaimed "KFB."
