Good Brothers

[5.0] "A mediocre duo of two mediocre white dudes who only grow more mediocre with age. It's pretty clear they only keep getting high profile bookings because they're good buddies with actually popular people in high places. They're the Brutus Beefcake of the modern age"

[6.0] "They are kind of a poor man's Outsiders. They remind me of Hall & Nash in their presentation, but without even a fraction of the charisma that made the original act iconic. Their NJPW Bullet Club run was their peak, and since then they haven't done much of note beyond tagging with AJ Styles, ironically, that was among Styles' weakest work in WWE. In the ring, they're solid enough but rarely exceed "decent." As a heel team put in position to put over better babyfaces, they can be useful. They're rarely memorable. A serviceable act that can fill a role."

[8.0] "Gallows and Anderson were a huge deal in NJPW tag scene during the peak of the Bullet Club. They did not do as much in WWE as they seemed just to be Styles sidekicks. After leaving WWE for the first time, they seemed like a big deal in TNA before going back to WWE for more of the same. In the ring these two have great chemistry together and always puts on good matches."

"So, Karl Anderson was fired twice from the company twice, while Luke Gallows was fired thrice. Not just talking about the "good brothers" angle, but his role in the straight edge society. Probably only hired because of their friendship with AJ Styles. Clearly a bootleg clique. Not because they did a bad job, but because they weren't booked properly. & twice, at that. Hopefully, whatever wrestling promotion they're in right now does a better job with them."

[6.0] "They were great in Japan and in TNA. Their bizarre undying loyalty to AJ Styles has gotten them hired and fired twice. I hope they made some decent money from it but it really hurt their careers. As funny as they can be, it's the same schtick for over a decade so something needs to change."

[2.0] "I'll give credit where it's due: These two have managed to keep themselves steadily employed with the biggest wrestling promotions around the world for the last decade. My question is: Why? And also, how? Y'all, Good Brothers suck. They are legitimate clowns who are too busy sniffing their own farts and furiously patting themselves on the back to realize that nobody actually cares about them. Ultimate carnie conmen, sucking up paychecks while turning out absolutely dreadful performances, but it's OK because they're funny (allegedly) and everyone backstage likes them (see also: Disco Inferno). But does anyone *watching* wrestling actually want to see Gallows and Anderson in 2025? Look at all their top rated matches on here. Trios/eight mans/ten mans/multi-team matches. i.e. they had to be propped up by other, actually good wrestlers. Sure, they've had a handful of watchable 2v2 matches, but we're talking about going back to the mid-'10s for most of them. But hey, they'll be rich beyond their dreams for life and will be in great physical health since they work such a boring, lazy style so good for them I suppose."

[6.0] "They are not very special, but together they make an ok team. I believe that the quality of the people who were beside them helps a lot, and ends up giving them credibility."

[10.0] "Come on let's go, I love them, all the way, Bullet Club, The Club, The OC, Good Brothers, I know they are kinda limited in ring, but for me they are still doing alright in the matches, and they've got the look and charisma to be yet entertaining these days"

[5.0] "These guys are as guilty as anyone of phoning it in. Gallows is limited but a decent big man and Anderson clearly has the ability as we've seen on the odd occasion but neither guy seems rarely willing to put a shift in and elevate a match."

[7.0] "Hmm. I feel like these guys are pretty underrated based on what they were able to do in some matches on WWE and AEW, but their indie runs have been way, way below average. At least they're picking up steam in their second run with The OC though."

[0.0] "Bad team. During the existence of the team, they showed a couple of good matches. The rest of their matches are terrible or barely average. The Good Brothers are the most overrated team of our time!"

[7.0] "Yeah I mean they are good. Don't expect them to main event a Sumo Hall, but they can go. Anderson is the faster guy who can sell and has a good offence. Anderson is probably the better of the two wrestlers. Gallows has a better personality than an 'in the ring wrestling great'. Speaking of that, they both seem to have amazing personalities. Listen to them in any podcast (especially the Stone Cold) and you'll see that these guys are the funniest guys you'll hang out with. This review isn't about that per say, it's about them as a whole. They can have good matches and I'm proud of their NJPW run and the money they've made elsewhere. They are good wrestlers with an interesting dynamic. Keyword : good"

[5.0] "The Good Brothers are okay in the ring, but as characters, they just come across as obnoxious to me, whether they're supposed to be babyfaces or heels. Their attempts at comedy often fall flat to the point of being painful."

[10.0] "When one of the best tag teams ever get a rating this low, you know many have misjudged the good brothers. They have that personality and the skills. Doc is a great big guy, not because of in ring skills but because of his wrestling psychology. Karl is a decent wrestler and a passable talker. But when together........... They are tooooo sweet."

[5.0] "These two are very boring on their own and coast off whichever BC leader they're teaming up with. Their humor is unfunny as can be. The one thing they're "good" at is being henchmen. The in-ring work is lackluster, as a tag team they've like 3-5 okay matches. The rest are forgettable."

[5.0] "Anderson is fine but Doc Gallows continues to steal a living which if anything only makes me respect him more. Fair play."

[6.0] "Always adequate in the ring and deliver solid matches. Not ones to bring forth the best match of the night, but they have personality, attitude and size as well. They're also perfectly obnoxious as heels."

[5.0] "Extremely boring tag team to be honest. I saw more potential on Anderson than Gallows. Definetely they sucessed in Japan for the bullet club and the gaijin atractive, but more than that, nah. Don't forget that Festus reinvented himseelf in the E as Gallows and didn't change a bit since the SxE Society nor Aces & Eights, just the same old big and bald guy with null personality. Again, Anderson as more skills and in ring talent than his partner. Adequate but boring."

[6.0] "I feel they are sort of just alright. They were unbelievably underused in WWE but they were overused in NJPW."

[5.0] ""Adequate" is how I describe the tag Doc/Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson. I've never been a big fan of either man and for me their tag team is a perfect sum of the parts: they have never embarrassed themselves but at the same time they never had any standout, let alone memorable, match or feud. While in NJPW this could be blamed on how thin the tag team scene was during their tenure (albeit regularly reinforced by huge ROH acts such as reDragon or The Briscoes), the same could not be said about the WWE. I think in Impact their collision with the Motor City Machine Guns is inevitable and it's some sort of last call to avoid sinking into mediocrity."

[7.0] "Good as Bullet Club's representatives in the tag division but honestly not that great of a tag team despite their numerous accolades."

[8.0] "I'm gonna refer to these guys as The Club even though AJ isn't around with them right now. Anyways, I was very excited when they debuted in WWE, and I had high hopes for them, until it ultimately fell flat. Sure they carried the RAW Tag Titles into WM 33, but it was such a short reign, and they weren't over like they are now, plus it didn't help losing them to The Hardys. They got lost in the shuffle after that, but after the Superstar Shake Up, there being utilized like there supposed to. They had some good matches with the Bludgeons, but haven't done anything super impactful yet. Karl is more of the high-flyer, faster guy of the team while Gallows is hard-hitting. I think its a nice balance, and this team deserves a well-earned push."

[6.0] "This tag team is pretty solid. Even in NJPW, they never have a really outstanding match. Their match were quite good to very good at best. Now in wwe, they are barely used and are not treated as big deals. Karl has potential as a single wrestler while gallows is pretty dull without karl. So a 6 is right now I think."

[7.0] "I had them at a 4 until around January, now they're a 7 because their matches have improved and their mic skills are more adapted to the WWE style. I also find their heel work to be engaging. They just need a bit better booking and they can be the top heel of a Tag Division."

[6.0] "They are hot right now because of the whole Bullet Club thing, but honestly I have never found their matches to be all that great. They aren't bad, but they don't really jump out at me very much. If not for their stable association, I think people would pay very little attention to them."
