Neville's return to NJPW could be historic
In 2012, Neville made his debut for top Japanese promotion New Japan Pro Wrestling, as he entered the 2012 Best of Super Juniors Tournament and immediately made an impression by picking up his first win over the legendary Jushin Thunder Liger. Neville eventually finished his block with 10 points on board and subsequently finished as the leader of the A Block as well.

However, following defeat to Ryusuke Taguchi in the semi-finals, Neville eventually marked his departure from NJPW within the next few days. But, that being said, a return to NJPW is quite possibly one of the likeliest options' for the former Cruiserweight Champion, as he looks forward to making an immediate mark upon his return to NJPW.

In addition, another valid reason for Neville signing with NJPW is definitely going to be The Bullet Club factor. Within these past few weeks, BC members Cody Rhodes, Matt Jackson, and more importantly Bullet Club OG Tama Tonga claimed on social media that they are indeed huge fans of Neville. Whereas, Tama's fellow BC Firing Squad stablemate Taiji Ishimori has also been teasing a new Bullet Club Jr. Heavyweight who is apparently going to be teaming up with The Bone Soldier at this year's Super Jr. Tag Tournament.

With Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa, and the rest of The Bullet Club OGs currently recruiting members for The Firing Squad, could we possibly witness Neville make his grand return to NJPW and eventually join forces with The Bullet Club Firing Squad? Only time will tell!
