David Finlay
About David Finlay
Fourth-generation bruiser David Finlay spent eleven years in NJPW, ultimately rising to lead Bullet Club — recognized as the faction’s fifth and final leader — after years of grinding through the junior and tag divisions. In NJPW he captured the inaugural IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship, held it on two separate occasions, and also picked up the NEVER Openweight title and IWGP Tag Team gold alongside Juice Robinson as FinJuice.
On the March 4, 2026 episode of Dynamite, Finlay returned to AEW as a heel, reuniting with Clark Connors and Gabe Kidd under the banner of The Dogs. The trio captured the AEW World Trios Championship on the April 8 Collision tapings, Finlay’s first title in AEW. With Adam Copeland and Christian Cage having publicly challenged The Dogs to a World Tag Team Championship match at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, Finlay’s run at the top of AEW is only gaining momentum.
