Ace Austin currently represents the Bullet Club in Impact Wrestling, and the 3-time Impact X-Division Champion didn’t need to be asked twice when the offer to join the group was made.
Austin and Chris Bey are both members of the Bullet Club, as well as the reigning Impact World Tag Team Champions, and Austin recently addressed joining the iconic faction during an interview with Steve Fall. He said,
“When I had the opportunity to go to Japan for the first time, the Best of the Super Juniors, I wasn’t going to Japan thinking to myself, ‘Oh, I want to get into Bullet Club. I just wanted to break in there and make a name for myself in the best way I could. I wanted to represent Impact Wrestling as X-Division Champion in the best way I could.”
“But when the opportunity for Bullet Club showed itself, while I was there in Japan, it was kind of a no-brainer. That’s the top of the industry right there. So if I want to be on top, of course, that was just a no-brainer decision.”
Austin and Bey will defend the Impact World Tag Team Championships against The Motor City Machine Guns at the Impact Rebellion pay-per-view event.
