The Club – Or The O.C. – is finally back, with United States Champion AJ Styles, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson.
However, the founder of the original Bullet Club has yet to truly reunite with his New Japan brothers. Finn Balor – who was Prince Devitt in New Japan Pro Wrestling – started the BC with Bad Luck Fale, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson back in 2013.
Balor would eventually leave the group to go down to NXT in 2014, with Styles coming in the same year the former Prince Devitt made his debut in the developmental brand.
The company has acknowledged Balor’s ties with Gallows, Anderson, and Styles on several occasions; however, the former Intercontinental Champion hasn’t spent any lengthy time with the duo in WWE's reincarnation.
During an interview, the current United States Champion spoke with
The Wrap and discussed the possibility of Balor joining the group, and Styles gives a character answer, as he isn’t against the idea, but questions whether the Smackdown star will have trouble being liked:
“I mean, we’ll have to see where he stands. We’re not exactly liked right now.
“Does he want to be not liked? I don’t know. I don’t know where it’s going to stand. He will always have an invitation, but who knows if it’s going to happen.”
Balor will face a returning Bray Wyatt at Summerslam, with the former Intercontinental Champion expected to take a break from the company following the big summer show.
