3. The Club Planning To Send A Big Message on Raw
During a recent interview with NOLA.com, The Club’s Luke Gallows talked about The Club having the blessings of WWE Hall of Famers Kevin Nash & Scott Hall, WWE removing “Bullet” from their name, the upcoming Raw in New Orleans & more. Below are the highlights:
On Having The Blessings of Kevin Nash & Scott Hall:
“We all grew up watching the NWO and the Kliq, and thinking that those guys were really, really cool. We were all big fans of the business as kids. So we kind of started throwing it up. Karl Anderson and Finn Balor started throwing up the Too Sweet in Japan even before I got there. When I came in, we did it even more. To the fans, to each other, we even do it in the car. It’s a real thing for us. We love it.
We have the blessing of Scott Hall and Kevin Nash. They dig it, too. They feel like it’s a passing of the torch. Hopefully, we’re capturing that cool that they captured all those years ago that captivated us as kids and made us fall in love with sports entertainment.”
Was it understood that the word Bullet would have to be removed from The Club name in WWE?
“Yeah, we kind of knew that. We were being edgy in Japan (with The Bullet Club), and there’s a bit of a language barrier. The WWE is all about family friendly entertainment. My son and I watch the WWE Network at home all the time. Going with The Club was the way we needed to go to come here and be in this environment, where your kids are watching.”
Will The Club be adding more members?
“That I can’t really talk about right now. That’s Club’s business. I can tell you this, though: The Club is all about sending messages, putting everybody in this New Era on high alert. We’re here, we’re here to stay, and we’re here to be the top dogs.”
What Will The Club Do On The Upcoming Episode of Raw?
“Monday night when we get into New Orleans, we plan on sending a message there as well. That’s going to be a great place to do it, it’s one of my favorite towns. So WWE Universe New Orleans get ready, The Club is coming, and we’re just two sweet.”
