• WWF Golden Era & Attitude Era Veteran Joins NJPW Stable To Attack Bullet Club – Delivers A Piledriver To Kenny Omega

After IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega defeated Cody Rhodes to retain his Title at NJPW G1 Special, WWF Golden Era & Attitude Era Veteran Haku and his sons, Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa, attacked Omega and The Young Bucks.

It should be noted that they were sporting ‘Firing Squad’ shirts. Other members of the Bullet Club (except Bad Luck Fale) came out but were left laid out.

Cody teased joining Haku and his sons, but he stayed with the Bullet Club and he got laid out as well. During the beatdown, Haku nailed a Piledriver on Omega on top of a Steel Chair!

After the beatdown, Cody helped Omega get back to his feet and raised his hand. So it looks like things are back to normal between Cody & Omega.
