Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows made a shocking debut on Raw last week when they appeared out of nowhere and attacked The Usos. The duo made another appearance on this week’s show in London and this time around they set their sights on the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Roman Reigns.
At one point during the show AJ Styles was doing a backstage interview when Anderson and Gallows appeared. Styles, Gallows and Anderson got to talking and the duo thanked Styles for putting in a good word for them with WWE. They got all friendly with AJ, and they made it clear that they have AJ’s back at Payback on May 1st.
Roman Reigns made his way to the ring later in the show and he was cutting a promo when AJ Styles came out. The two talked for a few minutes and then AJ got out of the ring and then Anderson and Gallows attacked Reigns. AJ Styles watched from the ramp as Raw went to break.

When Raw came back from the break AJ Styles told Roman Reigns that he had nothing to do with the attack. Reigns told him he knows that Styles brought Gallows and Anderson to WWE and he doesn’t believe that he had nothing to do with the attack. AJ told Roman he doesn’t need his friends to beat him for the title. Roman responded by telling him to bring all of his friends because it’s one versus all.
