Which former WWE superstar could we see in the Bullet Club?

#1 Rusev

Rusev could be the perfect addition to the Bullet Club

Regardless of what anyone thinks of Rusev and the gimmicks he had to undergo for all these years in WWE, there isn't a doubt in the fact that 'The Bulgarian Brute' is one of the absolute best when it comes to in-ring performances. And every time Rusev has stepped foot into the squared circle, he has delivered.

Now some of you might disagree with me on this one but I genuinely feel that if there's any gimmick that would work for Rusev in New Japan Pro Wrestling, it's definitely as a member of the Bullet Club.

There are no questions in regards to Rusev's capability as a heel and considering his in-ring style, the former WWE United States Champion would fit into the NEVER Openweight Division.

As for the Bullet Club, the faction hasn't had a proper representative in the NEVER Openweight Division since Yujiro Takahashi was in his prime and maybe it is finally time for the Bullet Club to focus on all the divisions that NJPW has to offer.
