[WOR]: Lio Rush has officially signed with NJPW

Despite his aew appearance on the ppv , Lio rush was apart of the forbidden door deal between aew and njpw. He is signed to njpw but can make appearances for aew in the states. He can’t go to japan as of now given the situation

 

[Chris]

Good signing IMO. Not sure about when travel opens up but his presence on NUPW Strong has helped that show a lot. I can't stress enough how much the dude has been killing it in the stuff I've seen him in NJPW and MLW since leaving WWE

 

[Chris]

NJPW Strong for this Friday on the Road to Ignition. KOJIMA

Spoiler: am I supposed to spoiler this? idk

Does New Japan not have weight classes for the tag titles anymore? Cause ZSJ just won a tag belt and he's far from a heavyweight lol

From what I understand it's always been a suggested weight that they make kayfabe exceptions for, depending on overness.

Young Bucks won the IWGP hw tag titles and they defo aint heavyweights either. esp not in japan

edit: they did win the jr ones like 7 times too though

Spoiler: Spoiler

[Chris]

Fuck I'm not going to be able to finish that tag title match before NXT as I thought but it's gotta be almost over bc it's been going for a while Ima watch it during commercials or some shit bc fuck this has been great. I was so tired of these two teams fighting each other tbh and the feud was just dragging and dragging but fuck man, this is good tag team wrestling

 

[Chris]

AIght just finished, def recommend the main event. Whole show I thought was actually really quality for a tour show tbh. Also Miho Abe back
