El Phantasmo And Hikuleo Discuss The Different Iterations Of Bullet Club
ELP & Hikuleo talk about the different iterations of Bullet Club through the years.
With a long history like Bullet Club, many professional wrestlers have been involved with the alliance throughout the previous decade. El Phantasmo & Hikuleo are included among the ranks of the former Bullet Club members.
Through the years the group has had many members including AJ Styles, Finn Balor, The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Jeff Jarrett, and more. With all those members, there have been many subgroups and different iterations of Bullet Club through the years.
Speaking to Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, ELP & Hikuleo opened up about their thoughts on the evolution of the group and the current landscape of Bullet Club today.
EL PHANTASMO: “There is. I love it. There’s so many little subgroups. But I think people pay way too much attention and care about it too much. They care about that the House of Torture is in Bullet Club, but it’s basically just branding. They’re not in Bullet Club; they’re doing their own thing. I like all the different iterations Bullet Club has taken. I thought we could have done something really cool with me, KENTA and Ishimori going into a babyface Bullet Club direction. That was really close to happening, and rght at the last minute it didn’t and everything got swept under the rug and plans changed. But O.G. G.O.D., we’re the new G.O.D. It’s Bullet Club for life, baby.”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “I admired last year, I think I talked to Switchblade, I was like, ‘The O.C. are kinda in.’ He was like, ‘No, they’re in.’ He’s like, ‘Mia Yim’s a part of Bullet Club.’ He’s like, ‘It’s a thing. They can’t legally say it, but she is. They’ve got as much right to say it as anybody else.’ Do you guys consider Scott D’Amore still a member of Bullet Club?”
EL PHANTASMO: “Just as much as Jeff Jarrett was. Frankie Kazarian.”
HIKULEO: “Yep. I second what he says.”
