WWE.com has posted a new article commenting on the reports that AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, Karl Anderson and Luke “Doc” Gallows have signed, or are signing with the company.
WWE usually doesn’t comment on speculative reports like this, but an article like this has fueled speculation even more. The website’s article says Triple H’s office declined to comment, then added that there has been a lot of interaction between Bullet Club members and Finn Balor, who is the former stable leader and current NXT Champion.
WWE.com posted the following about the group’s history together:
Until recently, Styles, Gallows and Anderson were all part of New Japan’s Bullet Club faction, a stable formerly led by Bálor when he wrestled in Japan under the alias Prince Devitt. For months, Bálor has made it clear that he’s still tight with the Bullet Club members, even tweeting photos of them wearing his “Bálor Club” T-Shirts. On Monday, Bálor stirred the pot again, tweeting an image of Anderson sporting trunks that bore Finn’s “demon” design. Additionally, the official Twitter account for the Bullet Club tweeted the NXT Champion Monday, telling him to keep more Bálor Club shirts on hand in case they need them. That tweet has since been deleted.
Interestingly enough, WWE also made mention that Daniel Bryan had proposed an interpromotional match between himself and Nakamura last year, which has an even better chance of happening if Bryan is cleared, and Nakamura does in fact sign with WWE.
