It appears that
WWE is interested in another talent from Japan. With rumors that the company has
signed KENTA and Prince Devitt (not Japanese, but worked extensively in Japan
for NJPW) there is another name on the radar; Kota Ibushi. Ibushi is the current
IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, and works under dual contracts with New Japan and
DDT.
In the past,
Ibushi has turned down deals from All Japan, New Japan and WWE. Word is that he
is exhausted trying to maintain the dual schedule, which is why he is not
working this year’s best of the Super Juniors Tournament.
