Bullet Club Gold - Who do you want in it?

[Smart Marx]

Jeff beating me to the punch

I think Adam Cole is a prime target for recruitment. Man will most definitely still have resentment with the Elite that he’s never gotten a proper payoff on.

I also think adding him as the third member immediately kills the narrative that Bullet Club is dead and Gold is the nWo 2000 equivalent because you’d be making an era with nothing but top guys.

Think most would agree. nWo is 4 Life, but remember Wolfpac is 4 Ever.

It was. Wolfpac were the second most over act in wrestling in 1998 by a large margin and I believe they’re why WCW still had reasonably good ratings in 1998 even though WWF was on top again.

I’d argue greater than nWo original was even before the split. Since at least early 1997. They made some strong mistakes with Hollywood. I’d have given them Macho Man and put Hall with Wolfpac to balance it better and I’d have added new members to Hollywood to strengthen it. It looked like Hogan and jobbers next to who was in the Wolfpac.

I’d probably have kept Konnan in black and white, too. They needed to retain some of its coolness.

I think Gold is gonna be the BC Wolfpac for sure.

If they add Adam Cole, especially. They’d be the real Elite.

NWO Hollywood was pretty much Hulk Hogan + dozens of jobbers.

Including Mr. 1998, Horace Hogan!

might be a bit since he just came back and is a face but it'll be interesting. and if Cole joins does KoR too on his return. Jay punked him pretty good twice and is the reason he was concussed so they have a natural feud as well so if he joins, might be down the line

That last line was supposed to be Hollywood. Konnan WAS in Wolfpac, but you needed someone cool with the black and white.

Also, Eric shouldn’t have fired Waltman in early 1998. He was a founding Wolfpac member when it was a trio. If Syxx was in Wolfpac with Hall and Nash, they can afford to let Konnan stay in Hollywood.

Not that Red paint and goatee look. It looked greasy.

KOR might be out for while so it’s hard to say how that unfolds, but generally I’d assume he’d join Cole in Gold or he’d feud with White and make Cole pick a side.

But, if they swerve us like Cole did in his return, KOR in the BC with Cole would be fire. Like legit.

Greasy was in at the time

This is I do agree with. His red logo was cool, but that Goatee wasn’t it.

Not going to say what I want since it will be a flam storm, but Cole in BCG is laughable. The only thing I will say there much better people and people would both benfit from BCG and help it out
