With the League of Nations and the Social Outcasts providing World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) fans a glimpse of yesteryears, why not add another faction similar to the famed "Bullet Club" that is pretty popular over at the New Japan Pro World brand?

Of course, it would be under a different name in the WWE, copyright and trademark issue of which come to mind. And perhaps this is the reason why the WWE has recently filed to trademark "Balor Club" which should provide WWE fans of things to come.

Word about four big stars from the New Japan Pro World (NJPW) coming to the WWE has been out for quite some time now and the move seems to make sense. With the WWE seeing their roster plagued by injuries, new blood, and new stars has become apparent.

The new stable is likely to be led by Finn Balor, the WWE NXT champion. If that is the case, would it follow that Balor is making the big jump to the main roster? Well, it wouldn't be surprising.

If so, it could be something similar to how "The Shield" did it and everyone knows how the trio (Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose) rose to greater heights in the process.

But the question now is will all four NJPW wrestlers be actually part of the alleged faction? That part remains to be seen.

If the "Balor Club" does invade the WWE, what part would it take (face or heel)? Seeing most factions right now on the heels side, it is likely that they could be another. A face faction is, of course, not discounted but it could be a transition to making other factions united or somehow change color.

With that said and if speculations are correct, we may just see the new faction debut soon. It could be at one of the WWE pay-per-views (PPVs) coming up, like the WWE Royal Rumble or even at WWE Fastlane. How about Wrestlemania 32? Well, it could be, unless they will be made part of the annual extravaganza which has so far seen most of its stars bitten by the injury bug.
