Kinda surprised this wasn't posted yet.

From the WON:

As far as Omega goes, on 1/9, he signed his new contract so it is official he’s with New Japan through January 31, 2019, so he won’t be in the Royal Rumble this year (or next year), or WrestleMania, which no doubt won’t keep people from speculating on his role in those shows daily.

He's probably going to be the one to dethrone Okada :yeshrug:

I don't think anyone really expected him to come over this year like they were speculating last year....

Although with the head bosses wanting to work out some sorta talent exchange with the E, it could be interesting in the future if Vince is smart enough to capitalise on it...

I know that was a headline of a story, but what Kidani actually said was that New Japan is looking to land people like Jericho. Basically, former WWE wrestlers that have name value, not having an actual talent exchange.

Njpw should have put the title on Kenny in the Tokyo dome bout.
Yet since his whole run has been admin based to keep from losing him so early to a domestic property like aj and others.
Njpw did plan this out well enough. That all the rub went to Okada in simple general fan perception of the product. So now njpw gets Kenny for a bit longer before pulling the switch. Plus, njpw may not ever have to as well.

Right now admin wise njpw like usual is always in the driver seat.

Young Bucks are up at the end of the year, so they can drive a larger deal as a unit
