Pro wrestling veteran and AEW star Rocky Romero discussed various topics with Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, including the possibility of a Bullet Club comeback.
Romero said, “It’s a valuable IP and something that’s not owned by WWE or AEW, but AEW is a partner of New Japan. The licensing there would be pretty easy to get done. You never say never. I think it’s good to take a little break right now. We did get a very solid run of Bullet Club, and however it comes back next time, whether it’s a nostalgia thing and it’s some of the former Bullet Club guys getting all together or if it’s something that’s completely brand new like War Dogs was. I think it’s an important part of professional wrestling] history, and I think, like you said, it’s valuable and people know it, and people know the logo and the name, and it’s got an amazing history.”
On how popular the group became:
“You look at some of those New Japan YouTube videos that explaining the Bullet Club history; they have millions and millions and millions and millions of views. It’s really cool that the world knows this obscure professional wrestling group that really gained the attention of the world, and look at all the people who came through Bullet Club and where they are now at the very, very top of professional wrestling. It’s pretty crazy.”
