So, granted it's the WWE Universe and the Bullet Club isn't a thing here, but aren't we all forgetting that Gallows and Anderson, and the Bucks all turned on AJ and kicked him out of the Bullet Club? From what I see with this storyline, WWE wants us to know that Anderson and Gallows have a history with AJ as they were stablemates. Yet, WWE wants us to forget--and forget we haven because we are goldfish--that Omega, the Bucks, Gallows, and Anderson attacked AJ.
I think WWE is slowly becoming accepting or at least acknowledging non-WWE storylines from indies and Japan. They may not highlight all the storyline intricacies, but they aren't completely disavowing them. Look at Zayn and Owens, Samoa Joe, and AJ Styles.
This is going to be the Summer of NJPW it seems, and I think it's going to be a situation where WWE Club continues its storyline of keeping AJ from ascending to the top, only this time led by original leader Finn Balor.
So, basically, why is anyone thinking this is going to be a reuniting?

Um. Why did Evolution reunite? Why did DX reunite? Why does any team reunite?
Because. That's why,

A) The majority of WWE's audience doesn't follow NJPW, or even know anything about them aside from what's been said by WWE on their programming - let alone their storylines. I think it's a miracle we've gotten as many Bullet Club references as we've had already. Expecting them to care about what NJPW did is expecting far too much from this company.
B) I fully believe Anderson & Gallows are joining Reigns at Payback.

Needing to shill merchandise isn't really a reason why two enemies would join together again...

New Japan canon isn't WWE canon. They can just talk about them having history together without going too into detail about the Bullet Club and build off an angle from there.

Yeah,..but to be fair even the WWE does this to their own stories sometimes... They choose to forget something happened for the sake of something else

They forget things that happened in their own storylines. The fact they're acknowledging anything that happened in Japan is a minor miracle for the WWE.

Um. Why did Evolution reunite? Why did DX reunite? Why does any team reunite? Because. That's why, This. You over look details to, hopefully, get something awesome again. Didn't Triple H turn on his long time friend Shawn Michaels resulting in Shawn being given a black eye and neck brace, the non-sanctioned match, Three Stages of Hell (street fight, cage and ladder matches) Hell in a Cell and even elimination chamber matches, most often both men left bloody and broken. Yet 2 years later they're best friends again making dick jokes about hotdogs. Just like when the Shield reform no one is gonna say "hey this sucks, these guys hated eachother a few years ago"

I don't think WWE gives two s**ts about what another company does. Be grateful they're even acknowledging Styles relationship with Gallows/Anderson. We're lucky to be getting that.

This is what shocks me the most; everybody hopes/assumes Bullet Club will reform in WWE, involve or have an angle against AJ Styles, WWE acknowledge Japan while achieving little else in an angle that'll be backseated by the end of summer.. Etc..
But nobody is suggesting that WWE could just as easily (and much more sensibility for the American audience) form a story/faction from AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Eric Young, A-Double and Bobby Roode... Guys who made it to WWE and have been immediately recognised by American WWE audiences due to their time in TNA. Also, with much less of WWE having to indirectly "remind" us that they have history aside from the "internationally traveled superstar" title which saddles them all. Not just for the American audience, that's 5 guys guarunteed to get a huge pop in Britain, and any shows with British audiences ('Mania, RAW after Mania, etc), due to the overachieving popularity TNA has across our side of the pond due to their deal on free TV.
But of course, "Screw common sense... BULLAT CLURB!!!"
