The Machine Gun 'Karl Anderson'

Before arriving in WWE in 2016, Karl Anderson made a name for himself in the Land of the Rising Sun. One of the founding members of the Bullet Club, the Machine Gun would become one of the top gaijin stars in New Japan. Although he primarily worked in the tag team division, Anderson also tasted success as a singles star during his time in NJPW. Anderson even made it to the finals of G1 Climax in 2012 before losing to Kazuchika Okada. He also took over the reins of the Bullet Club following the departure of Prince Devitt (Finn Balor) for a brief period and was considered to be the faction's de facto leader at that point.

Anderson debuted in WWE alongside Luke Gallows on the RAW after WrestleMania 32, taking out The Dudley Boyz. Although their run in WWE (in totality) has left a lot to be desired, Anderson and Gallows have been on a roll ever since reuniting with AJ Styles. The duo won the RAW Tag Team Championships this past week on RAW in a pretty solid Triple Threat Match, which means we are going to see more of the Good Brothers, and we aren't complaining.

Anderson is a pretty solid singles star in his own right. Although he has been put in a lot of singles matches in WWE, he has delivered pretty much every time he has been put in one-on-one encounters. Plus, he has one of the best Spinebuster in the business today. Although we don't expect the company to put the world title on Anderson, he can be pretty solid mid-card Champion.
