Devitt's professional record covers two decades of structural change across international wrestling. In 2013, he turned heel in NJPW and founded the Bullet Club alongside Karl Anderson, Bad Luck Fale, and Tama Tonga. That faction revolutionized merchandising, live-event counterculture, and modern faction booking worldwide.

Devitt reached his initial commercial summit at SummerSlam 2016 in Brooklyn. He pinned Seth Rollins to become the inaugural WWE Universal Champion on his first pay-per-view following his main roster call-up. A severe shoulder labrum tear sustained during that bout forced him to vacate the belt within 24 hours. The injury altered his career trajectory, requiring eight months of intensive rehabilitation before he rebuilt his spot as an indispensable main-event utility star.
