Despite ongoing talks between several New Japan Pro Wrestling “Bullet Club” members and WWE, the four men are very unlikely to appear at the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view event. We can report that the talent have not signed WWE contracts as of Monday and it could take a while before they are signed due to medical tests and other pre-contract steps.
Shinsuke Nakamura is headed to the WWE Performance Center next month and will train for several weeks while taking the necessary medical tests. AJ Styles and Doc Gallows are in talks with WWE while Karl Anderson is expected to be once his NJPW deal expires on February 1st.
