MJeff posted:Nakamura and Zayn. Yeah this is most likely. Nak wants his final match to be with Tanahashi, and that’s clearly much easier to get done without uprooting the family again to move back to Japan by just signing with AEW and making a handshake deal with New Japan and do some of the big shows over there in a Jericho or Mox sort of schedule while doing a more full-time schedule on US TV. It also makes me think the NJPW/WWE on and off negotiations are probably about him more than they were about Bryan as they try to find ways to get him to re-sign. And Sami’s clearly been done with WWE for, god, a couple years at this point. There’s probably some room in his house where he just notches the days until his contract is up.

Yeah, I imagine keeping the more limited schedule in a post-pandemic world also entices him, plus he still wants to prove he can be a major star in a U.S. promotion after WWE completely fumbled him from his first Wrestlemania until… now, really. The former WWE could offer with “well you only have to work TVs and PPV”, but the latter is, well, four plus years now of booking that more resembles a Pollack painting than an actual sketched out idea of where he was going. Also hearing Excalibur yell “BOMA YE!” would be pretty awesome, Nakamura was long gone when Ex got to call those World Tag League shows in 2018 so he never got a chance.
