as long as it leads to a NJPW crossover
On one hand, NJPW has a new President who might be open to NJPW working with other promotions outside of ROH. On the other hand, there could still be bad blood between Anthem and NJPW over Anthem buying AXS TV and saying the only way we keep NJPW on our network is if you work with Impact. Also they have a NJPW America promotion that had plans to run shows in 2020 prior to COVID. As much as people want to see cross promotion with NJPW, I wouldn't hold my breath.

I *hope* it's good. I'm less hyped about this than everybody and more on a "wait and see" perspective.

The extent WWE will ever go to working with any other company will be to use them as a developmental system or library content for the network(ala Evolve and Progress). There will never be a equal partnership because they would rather be looked at as a monopoly and not have other companies look like they are on the same level and probably see it benefitting other companies more than it benefits them. We ain't getting Jacob vs Roman till 2025

Isn't NJPW having Impact stars in their Super J Cup tournament and advertising them with the Impact logo?

There's also the fact that (at least on air), they don't acknowledge other promotions even exist. Other than Sami Zayn saying AEW in a promo (which was off the cuff), I think the last time anything said about another promotion on air was when AJ Styles debuted.

I’ve always liked the idea of them working with another promotion and one of those guys coming on WWE TV explaining there are other “Universes” out there and how that relates to them showing up in the ‘E, on some comic book Multiverse shyt.
At this moment, New Japan is the only company WWE could work with to make folks go
and that sure as hell ain’t happening. Scrull’s past fukking up a true Elite reunion aside, ROH mixing up with AEW wouldn’t be bad. I love the idea of all these non-WWE companies on some ol’ “It’s 2020, guys. Let’s embrace good business and even better fukkery
