I hope they don't work together for a while it's too early
AEW needs to build their own roster up before bringing over NJPW guys to prop their company up, most of these guys were just in ROH watching that happen & look where that got ROH. Plus most of the top guys in AEW just came from NJPW a year ago so it ain't like there's a bunch of fresh matches to have right now, PAC & Lucha Bros vs NJPW guys is the biggest selling point to me right now & even then those guys working with other places (Dragon Gate & AAA) might stop those.
I agree. AEW is too young. They need more characters like Brodie Lee, Brian Cage, Willie Mack on their roster. These 50 lb wrestlers are not quite there yet. Pentagon Jr. needs to be a top competitor with Moxley as well.I hope they don't work together for a while it's too early

I mean I don't think the Elite/Khan are the ones that need talked into it though. Omega & the Bucks AEW deals are set up so they could also do NJPW like Moxley & Jericho
Seems like people read too much into them using the belt like they weren't trying to sell as many tickets to the Dome as possible for 2 days & just used it to add a little bit more to the match because why not when Jericho was going over anyway. Unless NJPW thinks they really really need AEW for whatever reason, they have no reason to do anything & unless it's about the US expansion they don't need them.
and they also saw that Mox can fit in and contribute (and draw in the short term). That's way more than anything else any other promotion can offer to them right now.
The problem with AEW is that they are competitors to NJPW for wrestlers . Would they not try and sign Ibushi when his deal is up ? Or Okada etc ?I mean I don't think the Elite/Khan are the ones that need talked into it though. Omega & the Bucks AEW deals are set up so they could also do NJPW like Moxley & Jericho

War of the Worlds would be great. ROH damn sure not worthy anymore.
You say that like Gedo books storylines that fast. Gedo drags storylines out so long they only rival AAA. Okada can go away for two years, come back and they would still be doing the same main events. At best they MIGHT have Ibushi win the belt by then.Co-sign.
Brehs act like Impact's last two TV deals didn't happen because their parent company owns or bought the channel it's on.
The whole point of having a TV show is to be able to sell broadcast rights. fukk they gonna do, sell them to themselves?
A partnership would benefit NJPW and AEW greatly. Hell, NJPW would benefit just by being able to send Okada somewhere for a while to let the main event scene freshen up to give him new opponents when he comes back.
Nah it would include a couple of lions and the odd joint show and some wrestler trading. Personally im as intrigued as i am afraid for a Darby Allin/Hiromu Takahashi "who will try the nastiest bump possible" matchSome of y’all acting like if there was a partnership, it would be like week to week major federation altering shyt
I don’t see how they can’t do both, focus on their own shyt and be a partner, it don’t have to be one or the other.
