10 Modern Wrestlers Who Embody The Spirit Of Classic Superstars
6. The Club
More so than those ridiculous b*stards in The Ascension, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson would have fit in nicely alongside teams like The Road Warriors and Demolition. And unlike The Ascension, they didn't need to lift their wardrobe from a Mortal Kombat-inspired reimagining of The Road Warriors to make us believe that.
With their size differential and frequent use of combo manoeuvres, The Club is sort of a cross between The British Bulldogs and Powers of Pain. Back when AJ Styles was in the group, you could include The Rockers in that list, too.
Formed in New Japan, The Bullet Club became the stable for foreign heels. The group is still active with Kenny Omega as their leader, though Gallows and Anderson's condensed version of the stable (which temporarily included Styles until he was drafted to SmackDown) has made quite the name for themselves stateside.
And with good reason. They're an intense duo that fully embraces playing the villainous role, tough in this modern age of tiptoeing the line between heel and fan favourite.
