There's no way you can question Shinsuke's loyalty and respect for New Japan. I would hazard a guess that they're doing it this way in order to give Nakamura the best sendoff possible rather than going out on his back. It's the Japanese way - respect and bows to the crowd etc.
Nakamura stayed loyal to New Japan when so many left or jumped ship (I'm looking at you Shibata), and even though they booked him inconsistently until about 2008, he stayed. Much like Tanahashi (who also had the chance to leave), Nakamura deserves all the respect in the world for staying and helping New Japan recover and become the company it is now, healthy and stable.
Honestly, you cannot question what Shinsuke's doing. What's more, how do we even know that this is Shinsuke's decision?

Regarding CMLL guys in New Japan, the plan originally was for La Sombra to go and be in New Japan for a year likely with Los Ingobernables De Japon. But then he signed on with WWE and its unknown who if any CMLL wrestlers will be staying in Japan for an excursion.

Well, if Rush is still with CMLL, I wouldn't mind him for a few months

But then he signed on with WWE and its unknown who if any CMLL wrestlers will be staying in Japan for an excursion. Considering how Mascara Dorada turned invisible for a number of months before coming out of hibernation because CMLL was coming to Japan in a couple of weeks, it's for the best. While New Japan would had done more for La Sombra, they tend to get tired of the non-American gaijins quick. There are a couple guys like the Panther, Fuego, or Titan would could use the experience. But New Japan basically wanted the top heel in CMLL at the time which I doubt CMLL would had signed off on. Well, if Rush is still with CMLL, I wouldn't mind him for a few months Rush is the current top heel in CMLL so he's not coming over for a long stay. He didn't come for FantasticaMania because CMLL needs all of the starpower they have left with most of the top talents in Japan.

Do you guys think Daisuke Sekimoto is on NJPW's radar?

Do you guys think Daisuke Sekimoto is on NJPW's radar? Nope. Mainly because they see him as undersized even though he is the same height as Ishii. He is not worried since he is an in demand wrestler in Japan and regularly works.

I live in the US...but I sent them a message and they responded saying it was re-sent, but I still haven't gotten anything.
