The apparent signings of Shinsuke Nakamura, AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, and Karl Anderson were too much for me to resist the idea of writing out how I'd book their debuts. I focus on Styles being the leader of Bullet Club with Gallows and Anderson so a lot of Nakamura is ignored, but there are some hints of him including his first Wrestlemania match. This was reworked with some injury news, and some guesses at when some guys will be back from injury as well.
Royal
Rumble
Anderson, Gallows, and Styles are all in the rumble. They work together to eliminate some people but nothing super obvious. Styles, Owens, Reigns, and Brock are the last four in the match. They all team up against Brock but it doesn't work. Brock eliminates Owens and Reigns. Gallows and Anderson come down and distract Brock allowing Styles to eliminate him and win.
Raw
Styles cuts a promo about Bullet Club with his two dumb enforcers with him. Heyman comes out and says Brock's coming for him at Wrestlemania. He's going to be training hard on his ranch. Owens comes out and challenges him for Fast Lane. Roman feuds with the Authority.
Fast Lane
Anderson & Gallows vs. New Day, Bullet Club can't make progress in the match with Xavier interference so they get some chairs and leave the tag champs laying in the ring.
AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens have a back and forth match, Styles retains by interference from Samoa Joe who joins Bullet Club as the fourth member.
Raw
Bullet Club cut a promo and they start too sweeting and crotch chopping now, got to slowly introduce ripping off nWo and D-X. Owens cuts a promo about how he didn't want to have to do this, but he's got friends too and out comes Sami Zayn.

In
a Fast Lane rematch Anderson and Gallows beat New Day to become the
tag team champions. (I'm not happy about it
either)
Wrestlemania
Nakamura vs. D-Bry (This has nothing to do with Bullet Club, but I want it to happen)
Anderson & Gallows vs. Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn ends a double count out as it just becomes a brawl into the crowd.
Samoa Joe beats Dean Ambrose for the IC Title
Roman Reigns beats HHH (That's why he's not involved with BC yet)
AJ Styles vs. Brock Lesnar is a back and forth match and when BC comes down to interfere Zayn, Owens, and Ambrose stop them from interfering. Styles beats Lesnar with a foreign object while the ref is distracted by the ringside brawl.

Balor calls them out and tells them they're being assholes then lets Styles know he's coming for the belt. Styles tells him he's got to go through the rest of Bullet Club first.
Roman Reigns says he was distracted by the Authority but he's coming for the belt now and he doesn't care how many friends Styles has.
Payback

Now
all the members of Bullet Club are over as is Balor and Zayn with
their introductions and then Owens turns on Zayn in the rumble and
sets up their Wrestlemania match. I don't state it but Styles should never be pinned or submitted before Summerslam. Not even behind the refs back and definitely not in any six man tags or random tag matches. He never takes a loss until Balor beats him,
