#14 Bad Luck Fale

You know The Bullet Club is expected to have a dominant run in the G1 as an overall group when three different BC members simultaneously make into this list.

Much like his fellow BC stablemates Hangman Page and Tama Tonga, ‘The Underboss’ Bad Luck Fale is likely to have a strong, yet underappreciated run in this year’s G1 Climax. Fale has been one of the most loyal gaijin competitors in NJPW and he has been equally rewarded by the management for his loyalty, having challenged for the IWGP Heavyweight Title in the past and also getting to win the IWGP IC Title on one solitary occasion as well.

But, don’t expect Fale to get his hands on the G1 Trophy anytime soon.

#13 Michael Elgin

Michael Elgin is another up and coming foreign superstar in the NJPW roster and the former IWGP IC Champion is known to have a dominant run in every single G1 Tournament, however, Elgin’s momentum has somewhat been overshadowed in recent weeks and dropping the NEVER Openweight Championship after a reign of just 8 days, definitely won’t help Big Mike’s momentum heading into the G1 28.
