The '''Bang Bang Gang''' is a professional wrestling stable in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH). The stable consists of leader Jay White, Juice Robinson, The Gunns (Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn), and Ace Austin.
Bang Bang Gang originated as a sub-group of the Bullet Club in New Japan Pro-Wrestling in 2023 under the name '''Bullet Club Gold''', before adopting its current name in 2024. The group became a stand-alone unit in 2026 after the mother stable was merged into Unbound Co. faction.
== History == Jay White made his debut as a member of the All Elite Wrestling (AEW) roster on the April 5 episode of AEW Dynamite where he came to aid Juice Robinson and attacking Ricky Starks.<ref>{{cite web|last=Fisher|first=Kieran|date=April 5, 2023|title='Switchblade' Jay White Appears on AEW Dynamite, Attacks Ricky Starks|url=https://www.wrestlinginc.com/1250004/switchblade-jay-white-appears-on-aew-dynamite-attacks-ricky-starks/|website=Wrestling Inc.|access-date=April 21, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230416181620/https://www.wrestlinginc.com/1250004/switchblade-jay-white-appears-on-aew-dynamite-attacks-ricky-starks/|archive-date=April 16, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> 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.<ref>{{cite web|last=Tessier|first=Colin|date=April 12, 2023|title=Jay White Introduces Bullet Club Gold, Orange Cassidy Retains, Chris Jericho Wins|url=https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/jay-white-introduces-bullet-club-gold-orange-cassidy-retains-chris-jericho-wins-aew-fight-size|website=Fightful|access-date=April 21, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230420093141/https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/jay-white-introduces-bullet-club-gold-orange-cassidy-retains-chris-jericho-wins-aew-fight-size|archive-date=April 20, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> On the June 7 episode of ''Dynamite'', Austin and Colten Gunn interfered to help White defeat Starks. On the June 21 episode of ''Dynamite'', White and Robinson returned the favor helping the Gunns defeat The Hardys. The Gunns were officially inducted into Bullet Club Gold during the June 24 episode of Collision, after teaming with White and Robinson to defeat Starks, CM Punk, and FTR, subsequently nicknaming themselves the "Bang Bang Gang".<ref>{{cite web|last=Rose|first=Bryan|date=July 1, 2023|title=The Gunns officially join Bullet Club Gold on AEW Collision|url=https://www.f4wonline.com/news/aew/the-gunns-officially-join-bullet-club-gold-on-aew-collision|website=F4WOnline.com|access-date=April 21, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230702113724/https://www.f4wonline.com/news/aew/the-gunns-officially-join-bullet-club-gold-on-aew-collision|archive-date=July 2, 2023|url-status=live|ref=GunnsJoinBCG}}</ref>
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. On the January 20 episode of ''Collision'', Bullet Club Gold joined forces with AEW World Trios Champions The Acclaimed to form the "Bang Bang Scissor Gang" to aid each other against stronger and larger factions like the Undisputed Kingdom who had attacked both the Acclaimed and White. At Big Business on March 13, Bullet Club Gold turned on The Acclaimed, disbanding the "Bang Bang Scissor Gang". 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. 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.<ref name="Juice">{{cite
