Karl Anderson Set To Wrap Things Up In NJPW After WWE Return

The Good Brothers returned to WWE this week for a shocking moment on RAW. They are officially back, but they also have things going on elsewhere.

Karl Anderson is still the NEVER Openweight Champion. He will face Hikuleo at NJPW’s Battle Autumn in Osaka event on November 5th. That being said, Anderson will do something that very few WWE Superstars are permitted to do as he wrestles for another company.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that, “So he is going to come and drop the championship, so he is coming back.” It was also noted how this is not the way things were usually done in that regard.

NJPW updated the card on Tuesday morning, with Anderson vs. Hikuelo for the NEVER Openweight title still listed for the event. This confirmed after Anderson’s WWE return that he will wrap things up with NJPW.

“Also already announced for November 5, Karl Anderson will defend the NEVER Openweight Championship gold against Hikuleo,” NJPW’s website reads. “The Machine Gun will go wherever the bright lights will lead him, and that certainly rings true when it comes to November’s big Osaka event. Might it also be true of Wrestle Kingdom and a NEVER Championship defence on the grandest stage? Or will Hikuleo seize the moment and his first career championship?”

We’ll have to see what the future holds for the Good Brothers, but this week’s RAW return was a huge moment in their careers. Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows are now back in the WWE fold, even if that means they must tie up a few loose ends elsewhere first.
