WWE

Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows have opened up about being asked to return to WWE after having been released from the company in 2020.

The Good Brothers appeared on After the Bell with Corey Graves and spoke about receiving a text from Paul "Triple H" Levesque during their final television taping with Impact Wrestling.

"We had done the two years in Impact, thankful to them it was a great two years there but we wanted to recharge our batteries, wanted to hit Japan pretty hard," Gallows said. "So, we were like, let's take this time, let's go to Japan through the new year and then let's make a decision on what we want to do."

"So, we're in Dallas and we're doing our last match with the Motor City Machine Guns and we get a text that says, 'Hey guys, can we talk?'"

Gallows would continue to say that the text was from Levesque.

"We still didn't know if this was something that we could do or wanted to do or what was going to come out of it after what happened the last time. Then we got on the phone and we could feel the new vibe and how positive everything was and one thing led to another from there."

Anderson would then speak about their history with Triple H.

"We always had a really good relationship with Triple H," he said. "He was our guy when our contract was coming up in 2019, it was Hunter who we talked with and ended up signing a new deal with in 2019. So, we had a good relationship and I think that's why when we got released, I held some angst."

Anderson continued to say they didn't speak to Triple H, aside from one brief text exchange, for two and a half years following their release. In late August, they would speak with him again after Anderson and Gallows returned from Impact's television taping in Dallas.

"We get home and we do a facetime with Hunter, we talked, asked how the families were. We got asked if we wanted to come back, kind of talked out our issues, and said, 'Hey, that was then, this is now, let's push forward and go.'"

"I'm getting chills now thinking about it because I didn't think we'd ever have that talk again. Not just the business talk, to get the personal talk out. It was nice to get all that on the table, it's over, let's go, now we're going forward."

"We still had to go back to Japan, we had to go on a 10-day tour, I had a singles match with Tanahashi. Then we had to go to England for New Japan, that was October 1 and 2 and nobody knew that we had already planned to do October 10 in New York City."

Very happy to see them back. Should have never been released to begin with.
