Jun Akiyama will travel to the US soon to have a meeting with WWE COO Triple H.
He will be visiting WWE's performance center as a guest coach and will also be watching NXT TV.
Tokyo Sports is speculating there may be a future partnership between WWE and AJPW, and teased the idea of Kento Miyahara and Shinsuke Nakamura appearing in each other's respective promotions.
This is the worst timeline. Hopefully coronachan kill them all

>nakamura will betray japan in his own country
Evan Peterson
This is how All Japan takes back the throne. By selling its soul.
Benjamin Nguyen
LMAO based
Jeremiah Gray
If Nakamura does this, even Okada will disown him. It would be the ultimate disrespect and dishonor.
Chase Perry
Dude looks mentally challenged
Lucas Flores
Sounds like nothing is in stone yet. If AJPW does this I presume it's just because they're panicking between NJPW being so successful, CyberAgent growing bigger by owning DDT and NOAH, and Dragon Gate doing pretty good.
Carson Cooper
FFS I'd rather this with NJPW when Vince goes so he doesn't get all greedy & one sided Not AJPWho
Sebastian Foster
WWE has no respect for Japanese people or Japanese wrestling so the only reason they keep pushing for this shit is that they want to pull a UK and kill Japan wrestling ahd that's impossible. After six months, it will be just another white elephant.
If Nakamura does this he's either long given up on caring about his wrestling legacy and just wants to grab every last dollar off Vince or staying in WWE so long fried his brain.
Angel Anderson
There’s no way in hell that Nakamura agrees to this
Samuel Brown
>Kazuchika Okada vs. Kento Miyahara will happen but it will be in a WWE ring
Ian Lewis
Money talks.
Brody Carter
I hope this isnt true, the traditional companies are the last ones I'd expect to take part in that nxt japan shit. How is all japan doing these days? I heard attendances were improving with Kento.
Jace Roberts
They were but are dipping again because he has no one else to face, they took the belt off him and every took a nosedive so he's got the belt again and everything is still in decline just at a much slower rate. The issue is he's got like 2 people who haven't had their matches with him worn out yet.
Nathaniel Jones
Why do people think this is a bad thing for a promotion like All Japan? They're not in good shape.
Dylan Watson
So they have a roster problem. Do they have partnerships with other promotions?
Adrian Murphy
Jamal's headcanon that the more obscure it is, the better for their star rating spreadsheet
Lincoln Evans
Because they have seen what happened in the UK.
Henry Gonzalez
What's unironically helps AJPW by partnering with WWE?
Lucas Myers
Shinsuke Nakamura the ace of NXT Japan
Easton Adams
Japanese fans are actually excited what happened to UK?
Jackson Morris
Based race traitor Nakamura
Aaron Jenkins
ICW has gone from record-setting crowds to irrelevant & PROGRESS is a laughable shell of a joke.
James Sanders
And this is WWE's fault because? What if a millionare unrelated to WWE decides to create a promotion and start signing all avaliable talent...
Luke Hill
Essentially killed the UK scene besides RevPro who are protected by NJPW and gave the abortion that is NXT UK.
Jackson Thompson
This shit is funny as fuck, Funaki hybrid blastered this nigga's head so hard years ago that now he wants to give it all up to the E because AJPW has no future anyways, Darkness Cuck will be the downfall of all of puro
Ian Hughes
based smackdown #1 announcer
Jace Brown
How you can kill a scene? Every other wrestling market loses top talent all the time and they survive,but WWE signs 5 british bald guys and their market is suddenly dead.
Logan Ward
Because they co-opted those promotions and made them shittier (AKA more like the WWE) you obtuse moron.
Ask WWE 2001-present duh
Michael Stewart
How do you feel about Japanese conglomerate owning all Japanese promotions?
