Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson reportedly leaving WWE
It’s been reported by PWInsider that Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows, who are collectively known as the Club, are leaving the WWE soon.
It seems that there may be more WWE talent on their way out of the company, as it’s being reported by Mike Johnson from PWInsider that Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows are intending to leave the company soon when their current deal expires.
Johnson pointed out that the two wrestlers were originally offered new deals to stay which were reported to be multi-million dollar contract extensions. Apparently the Club decided to leave because of how WWE has been handling them in recent years. Their show on the WWE network Botch Club was dropped after only one episode aired.
“From sources we have spoken to, part of the reason the pair are looking to exit is how they have been handled in recent years,” Johnson reported for PWInsider.
Adding:
"While they were signed with great fanfare at the onset of 2016 and debuted in April of that year, the last several years have seen the team relegated to live events and inconsistent televised appearances and storylines. A planned WWE Network series starring the pair titled Botch Club was abruptly dropped after its debut episode as well."

If the reports are true, then it’s no surprise considering they’ve been completely irrelevant from WWE programming for a while. At one point before arriving to the company, WWE hyped these two talents, alongside AJ Styles, who wasn’t in WWE at the time, as special entities. As soon as both Gallows and Anderson made their debut, it’s wasn’t long before they just became “another” tag-team on the main-roster.
