Heard 2 names….one that most people called….another which isnt really shocking but he will probably be booked to take a L in a big match

This is getting massive hype. Khan will be public enemy number 1 if it isn't Jeff Hardy, Wyatt or...idk who else will top those two

Regal or Shane could be huge considering the implications but I don't see it happening for Shane and Regal wouldn't debut as an active wrestler facing Cassidy to earn a spot in a ladder match.
Some NJPW dudes like Jay White or Ospreay could work.
Of course the biggest mainstream name is still Jeff Hardy but at this point I'm not sure he's still that big of a deal, he was in TNA and ROH and didn't move the needle, he's way past his prime and basically a nostalgia act, not a game changer.

It could be not one but a bunch of guys starting a hot angle maybe by forming a faction or something like that.

He better deliver.


it has to be okada. Hes got nothing to do in njpw and they just cut salaries. He can come to America, earn big money, and then go back. Also I'm thinking how can this make sense and aew still look like fools. Okada is perfect. The smarks will think Khan wasnt lying and everyone else will just be like who gives a shyt about some foreigner :mjlol:

Sounds right. If it’s gonna be a legit surprise that people weren’t expecting Okada or Osprey are my top two guesses.

I don't watch NJPW but is Tama Tonga a big deal? Looks like he's a free agent as of 2/1

I think i read multiple times since the speculations took place that he was booked in Japan currently so there's no way he could be physically present at an AEW show.

I like him a lot. He'll get neutered in petite wrestling though. I'd like to see him and Jacob Fatu if aew were competent.

Could also be fatu. He said somebody that was contracted. So he coulda bought his contract from MLW.
