7 Ups And 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (April 18)
1. Are They Or Arent They?
The moment that AJ Styles, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows all signed with WWE, fans wondered whether the three members of the Bullet Club would acknowledge their history and reunite. Instead of giving us a direct answer Monday, WWE gave fans plenty to speculate about and turned it into part of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship storyline.
Backstage, AJ ran into Anderson and Gallows, and the three hugged and joked around, talking about how great it was to be together in WWE. Later, after Styles confronted Roman Reigns, Gallows and Anderson blindsided the champ and laid him out, with AJ looking disappointed.
Then, just to add to things a little bit, Styles approached Reigns backstage and told him he didnt know that was going to happen and that he was sorry. Roman wasnt buying it and believed that its part of AJs plan.
So now, fans are left with the possibility that weve seen the Bullet Club re-form in WWE and is going to try to run roughshod over the company, or AJ could be pitted against his buddies. The worst-case scenario here is that WWE thinks that they can make AJ into the heel with his backup and thus believe that fans will cheer Roman by default. If thats the case, then the creative team is really lost.
