Hmm, something seems a tad coincidental about all those Bullet Club t-shirts WWE are happy to show fans wearing on camera. Not only that, but that same 'Too Sweet' gesture the company sent a cease and desist order about to The Young Bucks was notable at the end of AJ Styles vs. Finn Bálor. There's no way that was an ad-lib.

Before the end of 2017, WWE may run a story that sees one of NJPW's finest creations make a proper introduction to the biggest promotion in the world. Hardcore fans should be ecstatic about this too, because there was a time when WWE seemed intent on running with their own version (The Club), albeit in a more watered down format.

The idea that Bálor and Styles may align, or even feud against one another to see who is the true leader of the faction, is thrilling. Draft Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson and perhaps even Adam Cole or The Bucks themselves into the equation and it'll be a hardcore fan's wet dream.
