WWE star reveals long-standing Vince McMahon rule that no longer exists
A WWE Superstar has seemingly revealed that a Vince McMahon rule is no longer in place and that a common term is now free to be used once again.
Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson were a part of The O.C. faction with Mia Yim and AJ Styles. However, the group wasn't a hit on the main roster, and Gallows and Anderson have returned to NXT. AJ Styles defeated LA Knight on this past Friday's edition of SmackDown to earn a title match against Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes next month at Backlash.
Speaking on his Talk N' Shop podcast, Luke Gallows revealed that they are allowed to say "wrestlers" once again. The veteran stated that wrestlers will no longer get in trouble if they don't refer to themselves as "sports entertainers" on television.
"We don't have to say sports entertainment anymore. You're allowed to be a WWE wrestler. You're not going to get in trouble if you don't say 'I'm a sports entertainer," he said.
AJ Styles on his relationship with Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson following their move to WWE NXT
The Good Brothers have returned to NXT and AJ Styles is unsure of their friendship moving forward.
Speaking on the Johnjay & Rich: After Words podcast, The Phenomenal One noted that he had to slap Karl Anderson in the face the last time they spoke. Styles said they will have to see where their relationship heads, moving forward and added that they have spent a lot of time together on the road.
"The last time Anderson and Gallows, we were in the locker room together. I kind of slapped Karl across the face. We're just going to have to see where this relationship goes, we'll figure it out. We've spent a long time together on the road, maybe that doesn't break it, so we'll find out," he said.
Cody Rhodes finally was able to dethrone Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion. It will be fascinating to see if AJ Styles can defeat The American Nightmare next month at Backlash in France.
