Top IMPACT Wrestling Star and one-half of the Good Brothers Karl Anderson recently took to an episode of their Talk N Shop podcast, where he revealed that it was IMPACT Wrestling EVP Scott D’Amore's idea for Ace Austin to join the Bullet Club faction, but it's not like they didn't want him as part of the group because he thinks that it is a great shot for him.
Karl Anderson said:
“Well I was asked about it [Ace Austin joining BULLET CLUB].”
“No [there’s no meeting when BULLET CLUB members are decided on]. It’s whoever the booker wants to put in the sonb*tch. People would say, ‘Why’d they let this guy in? Why’d they let that guy in?’ And I go, guys, listen man, as much as I — you guys gotta understand, the person that makes the show gets to put the f*cking person in the damn Club, you know what I mean? Scott D’Amore wanted Ace Austin in there [Anderson said sarcastically] and that’s not saying I didn’t want him in there. I think that’s a great shot for him. You can hate on the BULLET CLUB no matter what, of course. Anything that’s done successful is gonna get hated on. But you can’t deny that it’s gonna help your career. Got him over here didn’t it?”
