It's more the fact that they're pro Seikigun now.

Okay... but why are Goto and Shibata so anti-Bullet Club all of a sudden? It seems that this would make a lot more sense for CHAOS to team up with Tanahashi & Makabe to get rid of the Bullet Club.
Bullet Club still have Tag title.
And Shibata vs. Nakamura(CHAOS) for IC title is on the line.

Wanting to win the tag titles is different than wanting to get rid of the whole group. Similarly, I'd like to think that of all people, Shibata understands that going for the titles (either the tag titles or the IC title) is just business.

Maybe Omega? Although I hope not. He has such an individually unique personality.
Bullet club honestly doesn't need anyone else.

Saw this report from the 411Mania Twitter Account about reDRagon:

http://411mania.com/wrestling/roh-tag-t ... -spoilers/
Spoiler: show
According to wrestling insider/Reddit user MetsFan4Ever, current ROH tag team champions reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly) are in for a big push with New Japan Pro Wrestling. MetsFan4Ever reports that the team will not only win the current Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Tournament, but they will then go on to defeat The Time Splitters (Alex Shelley and KUSHIDA) to win the IWGP Jr. Tag Titles.

This is reportedly being done to strengthen relations between ROH, NJPW and possibly GFW. reDRagon would then defend the titles at the January 4th WrestleKingdom event, which is expected to air on traditional PPV in the US.

I don't hope that because it sounds we miss reDRagon in ROH.

Even though I've seen only a handful of them work, based on reputation alone I'm getting hard hearing about the Tokyo Dome lineup.

It seems like they're doing Nakamura/Ibushi for the Tokyo Dome Show, which I would be STOKED for!! LOVED their match from the 2013 G1.
