10 Things WWE Don't Want You To Know About Bullet Club

7. (Kiss The) Ring Of Honor

When Cody Rhodes revealed his 'Ring Of Honor' in celebration of his ROH World Title victory, he ushered in a new era for the company, subverting the Code Of Honor by asking combatants and fans to 'kiss the ring' as if they were enacting a service slightly less demeaning than Vince McMahon's literal interpretation of the request a decade earlier.

It got over. Because of course it did. Cody is over. Bullet Club are over. Everything they're doing turns to gold that goes around waists, over shoulders and now apparently on fingers. It's merely the latest success story for the crew in ROH.

And crucially, it's yet another trendsetting situation that WWE finds itself locked out from. For several years, Bullet Club members have taken full advantage of NJPW's working relationship with the outfit, affording the company a unique window into their world via appearances from Kenny Omega, AJ Styles and the inclusion of action from regulars The Young Bucks and Adam Cole.
