I mean technically wasn't he a free agent to begin with? Thats their fault for putting a belt on him without having an actual contract

I was still expecting him to leave myself but I thought it would be a short reign and he'd drop them quick bc WWE wasn't ready yet so didn't care. But now I'm picturing them seeing that Bucks challenge video last Friday and going "whoa whoa whoa what happened to Owens and Fale" :lol

>reported to be leaving
>wins tag titles, "I'm not leaving"
>oops, he is leaving, titles vacated

Just NJPW 2025 things

Welcome to New Japan people. Even when Jeff Cobb won the Tag Titles with Newman and Cobb joking about the rumors I knew he would leave sooner or later. In my head cannon WWE didn't make a good enough deal for Cobb and hours after winning the Titles they said let's up it and he said back bet :lol

Did ask SRS at the time and he said Cobb was still leaving. Utterly baffling decision by NJPW to give him the tag belts

It seems like it was really a last minute push to get him to stay, they even teased a title shot that Callum Newman is now getting instead
