Bang Bang Gang is a professional wrestling stable formed by Jay White, Juice Robinson and the team of The Gunns; Austin and Colten. White, who was the leader of New Japan Pro Wrestling's Bullet Club stable, signed with All Elite Wrestling in 2023 and created the sub-group Bullet Club Gold with Robinson. With the addition of the Gunns, the name was changed to Bang Bang Gang. White and the Gunns held the AEW World Trios and ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship at the same time, being recognized as Unified World Trios Champions.
Jay White made his debut as a member of the AEW roster on the April 5 episode of AEW Dynamite where he came to aid Juice Robinson and attacking Ricky Starks.[1] His entrance video showed the Bullet Club logo in gold, hinting that White was still in Bullet Club. Later on social media, White posted a picture of him and Robinson throwing up the stable's iconic gun taunt with the phrase "Bullet Club Black 'n Gold". The next week in a pre-taped promo, the duo declared themselves the first two members of Bullet Club Gold, establishing an official branch of the faction in AEW.[2]Austin and Colten Gunn joined into the stable in July, subsequently nicknaming themselves the "Bang Bang Gang".[3]
On the January 17, 2024 episode of Dynamite, White and the Gunns defeated Mogul Embassy to become the new ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions[4] and later, at Dynasty Zero Hour, Bullet Club Gold defeated The Acclaimed to unify the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships with the AEW World Trios Championships as the Unified World Trios Championships.[5] During this time, Bullet Club Gold silently switched to the Bang Bang Gang as their primary name, though they continue to refer to themselves by both names. On the June 5 Rampage tapings, a returning Robinson wrestled his first match since his return, teaming with The Gunns to win a trios match. After the match, White announced that he was giving Robinson a share of the Unified Trios Championship held by White and the Gunns, thus invoking the Freebird Rule.[6] However, on the July 13 episode of Collision, interim AEW Executive Vice President Christopher Daniels overruled Bang Bang Gang's attempt to invoke the Freebird Rule and stripped them of the Unified World Trios Championship.[7] On the following week, The Gunns and Robinson failed to win the vacant AEW World Trios Championship, which was won by The Patriarchy (Christian Cage, Killswitch and Nick Wayne) after interference from Mother Wayne.[8]
