POTENTIAL SPOILER ON ANOTHER WWE RETURN

[Dale]

The Good Brothers, Luke/Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson are believed to be WWE-bound, multiple sources within the company have told PWInsider.com. The belief among several in the company that the former WWE, IWGP and Impact Wrestling Tag Team Champions will be returning to the Raw brand as soon as this month, which likely means a return to their old alliance with AJ Styles.

Gallows, Anderson and Styles were all spotted together yesterday in Washington, DC, likely to film something for WWE. Styles has been at odds with The Judgement Day in recent weeks, so the idea of Gallows and Anderson backing him up, especially given their history, certainly makes sense.

Gallows and Anderson finished up with Impact this past August, losing to The Motor City Machine Guns at a TV taping in Dallas, Texas. Their deals actually expired in July but they agreed to make some additional dates. Their plan upon leaving Impact was to focus on New Japan Pro Wrestling at least through Wrestle Kingdom as there had been at least early plans internally for Anderson to have a high profile singles bout on that annual January Tokyo Dome event.

As PWInsider.com reported over the summer for Elite subscribers, there had been previous overtures from WWE during the Vince McMahon regime towards the team as they came closer to the end of their Impact deals. WWE sources indicated at the time that talks fizzled when Gallows and Anderson made it clear they weren't interested in returning for anything less than a high financial premium.

The duo had already been burnt once by the company as in 2019, when they had an offer to go to AEW as that promotion launched, they instead signed new five-year WWE deals. While the duo made a commitment to WWE when they signed in 2019, they were among those unceremoniously released right after Wrestlemania 37, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the sides were far apart on money during their most recent conversations, talks dissipated at the time without a deal being reached.

Obviously, there's an entirely new world when it comes to WWE management, now, which recently opened the discussions back up.​

God dammit I was really hoping they'd just sign actual contracts with NJPW Good for AJ I guess

 

[Marty McFourth]

Good Brothers is not a team I'm all that crazy about but they can be pretty good workers when they are motivated. Makes sense to give them another shot under Triple H and to group up with Styles again. I'd be interested to see how this return run works out.

 

[John McHenry]

BC vs JD?

Karl "bright lights" Anderson will be useless against Judgment Day bc they just have to do some spooky dim lighting and he won't try

 

[Dale]

While not a fan of them myself, he's definitely beefing up the tag division / factions.

 

[Jimmy King]

Not a fan but it gives AJ some much needed back up instead of getting jumped by JD every week, so there’s that.

 

[Buffy]

Well, Triple H is trying to reshape the tag team division and The Good Brothers will help with that. This also must be making AJ Styles and Finn Balor happy.

 

[Cwalker]

Ugh…

another team to put the Profits over, I guess

 

[Sabretooth]

Not surprised at all with this one. I was expecting it tbh. Gallows and Anderson seem like the exact guys that Triple H likes. Super happy they're coming back

 

[Baldrick]

Oh no. The last run they had was awful on the whole and they haven't really done anything to impress me since leaving. Surely there are better options available :/

 

[Chris]

So it looks like Karl is booked on November 5 to defend his title at an NJPW show. I was assuming he'd drop it to someone at WK bc I didn't see them giving Hikuleo a title run so early but maybe they won't have a choice? Maybe Trips goes wild and returns them soon and still let's them work Wrestle Kingdom in January?

So that whole time of Karl Anderson motherfucking WWE and Triple H was....iono, Voodoo Kin Mafia levels.

These two stink and I been saying this forever.....all these stupid hires, it's like Triple H hates me.

More hating for no damn reason.

I have no issue with them likely wrapping up their careers with AJ and get one last mini run as The Club. Probably put Judgement Day over. I'm sure it will be fun
