Current WWE NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes got spotted with AEW stars Ricky Starks and Daniel Garcia. Bullet Club member Chris Bey joined the trio. All four men are in Dallas during WrestleMania 38 weekend.

Hayes is currently enjoying his first reign as the NXT North American Champion. Both Garcia and Starks are part of factions in AEW. Speaking of factions, Bey was recruited into the legendary Bullet Club by Jay White himself.

Taking to social media, Garcia shared a photo of himself with the other three men. While the AEW star didn't caption his tweet, the photo certainly spoke for itself:

Over in AEW, Starks is the current FTW Champion, a title he defended against Brian Cage, Jay Lethal, and Swerve Strickland in incredible singles matches. He's also a part of Team Taz alongside Powerhouse Hobbs and HOOK.

Meanwhile, Garcia recently joined the Jericho Appreciation Society alongside long-term allies, 2point0. The three men replaced Santana & Ortiz in the faction as they went on to ally with Eddie Kingston.

Over at IMPACT Wrestling, Chris Bey was recruited into the Bullet Club in 2021 when Jay White offered him a spot in the faction. Since then, Bey has become an established member of the US version alongside Karl Anderson & Doc Gallows, who was also brought back by Switchblade.
