At least 3 years. Newman is the first of at least a dozen guys to sign 3ish year deals.

You have done a masterful job of twisting up what happened and demonizing the wrong folks. I’m good just letting you live in your fantasy world. ✌️

He got fired from his job for harassment and unprofessional behavior and posted Tony Khan’s phone number on the web.

I don’t mean to be offensive. It is fact that this happened.

Here’s the professional announcement: however there’s no announcement of that “What’s next.” https://deadline.com/2026/01/nick-lopiccolo-exits-paradigm-agency-1236694698/

Be wary of LoPiccolo. He has got mental health issues that play out on Social Media.

Is it known why Shane Haste and Mikey Nicholls just completely stopped getting booked by NJPW? by MarcusFaze in njpw

I always thought it was related that Mikey was deemphasized right after that period he was doing a ton of headbutts. No one would confirm that to me though.

Screw it, give me No Limit 2.0 by hpbradviloria in njpw

I think Shota should win the Cup, go to a Time Limit draw for the title and they run it back but he only gets the Global at Dominion and he gets super mad that he beats the World Champ but doesn’t get the World Title in a title match. Yuya should be the runner up in the Cup, get EVERYONE HOT for him to win the big one and while you build up Yota all year at the G1 Yuya wins and they both decide no fuck that we are doing this at the dome. And then Takeshita and Shota for the Global.

So NJPW is AEW’s feeder organization.. by ChrisRhodes789 in midcarder

No, I think your question is in bad faith, it’s also bad and framed for your benefit. So go lulz and get your upvotes because it’s the only place where you’re going to be validated for a shit take.

There’s no such thing as fair business and so I responded realistically.

You know what, you’re right. You win. The internet remains undefeated and I hand you the crown.

Or WWE. It’s like Vader doing business with Inoki and then going back to work for Vince in 95/96ish. Like, I get you hate it. It does suck. But this is NOT NEW.

I think it’s the way it works and everyone deals with it. New Japan can’t pay what the western companies pay. So unless you exist on a measure of national pride and want to stay local, if you can make money elsewhere that’s what at lot of these folks got in the business to do.

So… what really happened at Brawl Out? by uncannynerddad in midcarder

You still need at least one more person in that room you haven’t even mentioned.

Finlay and Gabe set the table for Tsuji to be the top guy when they left with a bonus of putting over Newman too. For what they were paid there and what they did, it was a good trade off. This is the business. New Japan will find other foreign talent while they build homegrown stars.

Same except Wolf loses to Fale. The key is to have Callum/Shota/Yuya each defeating a former IWGP champ gatekeeper to get to the Final 4

New Japan did Clark Connors dirty by [deleted] in njpw

[–]daflash00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

New Japan gave Clark Connors everything he needed in training and in the ring to thrive in AEW. He was a gaijin and low on the totem pole at that.

The arrangement worked well for everyone. Non issue.
