Former NJPW star Kota Ibushi is now on the free agent market after his contract with New Japan Pro Wrestling expired.
Ibushi previously stated that he expects to talk with AEW once he opens a wrestling school in Japan.
AEW/ROH President Tony Khan was asked about Ibushi during an appearance on Busted Open Radio. He said,
“There’s a lot of great free agents in the world of pro wrestling, but certainly Kota Ibushi is a great talent. When you have a name like that, that is certainly somebody everybody in the world of pro wrestling would be very fortunate to have in their promotion. We really wanted to work with him in the past, so I think that is certainly something we’d have to consider.”
