History Wrestling / DrewHankinson

* ADayInTheLife: Doc Gallows is the subject of ''The Good Brother'', a RealityShow on ASY TV about days in the life of "The Big LG And Family"

* CanonDiscontinuity: Gallows' previous run in WWE has yet to be mentioned since his return, even though he's using the same name. Probably [[{{Unperson}} to avoid mentioning]] Wrestling/CMPunk.

Hankinson would next appear prominently in Wrestling/{{TNA}} two years later in November 2012, where he was revealed to be a member of the {{heel}} Wrestling/AcesAndEights stable under the ring name D.O.C. (short for Director of Chaos). However, eight months later he left TNA after contract negotiations fell through, the departure being explained on-screen as him having turned in his kutte after losing the bid of Vice President of the stable to [[Wrestling/KenAnderson Mr. Anderson]].

** TNA came up with the DOC name since his more well-known name of Luke Gallows is owned by WWE, yet portrayed DOC as a nickname and title the Wrestling/AcesAndEights gave him, covertly implying that Gallows was still the character's real name.

* IgnoreTheFanService: Was one of the few men in New Japan that resisted the charms of Wrestling/MariaKanellis.

* IncomingHam: '''''"NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDS!!!"'''''

Hankinson returned to ''[=SmackDown!=]'' on November, however, repackaged and now under the name Luke Gallows, sporting a new attire with a goatee and shaved head. Wrestling/CMPunk later revealed that Gallows was actually Festus' true identity and claimed that Gallows' family and friends enabled him to become drug-addled, which led to the mental state he was in as Festus, before stating that Gallows was cured due to Punk showing him the UsefulNotes/StraightEdge lifestyle. Thus, Gallows became the enforcer and "disciple" of Punk, forming the Straight Edge Society alongside Serena Deeb, and later, Joey Mercury. After the stable broke up in September 2010, Hankinson was released from his WWE contract on November.

Returning to his former WWE ring name, Luke Gallows, he made his return to WWE alongside Anderson on May 11, eight days after ''Wrestling/WrestleMania 32'', and very quickly they made their intentions known: to reform their alliance with AJ Styles. It took some convincing initially, but eventually it got done. Still, their WWE run was largely seen as disappointing; two tag team championship runs, two reunions with Styles, and one reunion with OGBC leader [[Wrestling/FergalDevitt Finn Bálor]], all of which were brief, were the sole highlights of a run marred by constant losses, including some in matches with comedy stipulations. WWE eventually released Gallows and Anderson in April 2020, less than a year into a five-year restructured contract, in a wave of budget cuts.

Hankinson returned to Deep South Wrestling, until in 2007 he re-appeared on the ''[=SmackDown!=]'' brand as Festus, alongside Ray Gordy (son of Terry Gordy of The Fabulous Freebirds fame) as "Jesse", with the gimmick of a pair of Southern boys. Despite Festus looking dimwitted and unresponsive, Jesse was in awe of his tag team partner; this was revealed to be because when the opening bell rang, Festus' personality changed into a very focused and angry competitor as compared to the mentally challenged character he had portrayed, when the bell rang to signify the end of the match, Festus returned to his docile self. On April 2009, Festus was drafted to the ''Raw'' brand as part of the 2009 Supplemental Draft and, as a result, was separated from his tag team partner Jesse, who remained on ''[=SmackDown!=]''.

On May 2006, Hankinson debuted on the main roster as an impostor Wrestling/{{Kane}}; wearing Kane's old mask and ring attire, attacking the real Kane during or after his matches. The pair finally faced off in a match at the ''Vengeance'' pay-per-view, with the impostor Kane. One night later, however, the storyline was abruptly ended when the original Kane attacked the impostor Kane, removed his mask, and threw him out of the building.

* WeaponOfChoice: Was the one who introduced the ball-peen hammer as the Aces & Eights' weapon.

* NWordPriveleges: His go-to insult is to call his opponents a "nerd".

** Eventually WWE got hit with this, as the trio of Gallows, Karl Anderson and AJ Styles that's clearly a spinoff of Bullet Club is simply called The Club, then his and Anderson's reunion with Finn Bálor in 2018 was dubbed the Bálor Club.

* PowerTrio: With AJ Styles and Karl Anderson in what WWE [[WritingAroundTrademarks simply calls The Club]].

* ActionDad: Gallows is a father besides being a wrestler.

* WrestlingFamily: He's married to wrestler Amber O'Neal.

Following their release, Gallows and Anderson teased joining numerous companies, with Gallows mainly hinting at a possible return to Impact Wrestling, the former TNA. In July, Gallows returned to Impact and brought his fellow Good Brother with him; the two also stated their intent to resign part-time with NJPW as soon as conditions allowed.

** In NJPW, Bullet Club.

* SirSwearsALot: Nearly every sentence out of his mouth in NJPW contained a swear. They would've make a lot of money off him and Anderson if they had a SwearJar.
