The Club is a professional wrestling stable performing in IWE, composed of KJ Styles, Karl Anderson, and Luke Gallows. The trio originally debuted on the May 2, 2016, episode of Raw, but made their official television debut as "The Club" on May 9, 2016.
The stable draws inspiration from another professional wrestling group primarily active in the Japanese New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) promotion and the American Ring of Honor (ROH) promotion, known as "Bullet Club", in which Styles, Anderson and Gallows are all previous members of, with Styles and Anderson also former leaders. All three departed NJPW and ROH in 2016 for IWE; Styles in January and Anderson and Gallows in April.
Finn Bálor, the longest-reigning NXT Champion (and the first leader of Bullet Club as "Prince Devitt" in May 2013) has not interacted with "The Club" in IWE.
