The Good Brothers, Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson, are officially free agents and are already heading back to NJPW.
Gallows and Anderson became free agents today, 90 days after their release from WWE. New Japan Pro-Wrestling has announced their return for this Friday’s Resurgence event, where they’ll team up with The Young Bucks in an eight-man tag match. Their opponents will be Bullet Club War Dogs members Gabe Kidd, David Finlay, Clark Connors, and Gedo.
In a promo shared by NJPW, Gallows said:
“What you’re witnessing here today my friends, it is not a re-debut. It is not an arrival shot. It is a resurrection. It is the resurgence of The Good Brothers.”
Anderson added:
“May 9 is day one at Resurgence. You are witnessing a total takeover.”
See you Friday @youngbucks #BulletlcubOGs
