The heart of the matter
Longtime fans of The Bullet Club know that NJPW wrestler Tama Tonga was a part of the faction back when it ran roughshod in the Japanese promotion. Tonga had recently posted a tweet stating that there is only one true Club that matters, and that is the Bullet Club. A fan tweeted about The Club's brand new name being cringeworthy, to which Styles responded by telling him to calm down. Another fan chimed in and quoted Tama Tonga about there being only one true club that matters.
Styles responded with a slight jibe at Tonga, saying that he's drunk.
What's next?
The newly reformed Club has a ton of potential going forward, and has given rise to a string of possibilities, like Finn Balor eventually joining the faction, or The Club taking on The Undisputed Era somewhere down the line.
