I know DDT isn't the biggest promotion over there but feel it translates the best to the US

Throws some speculation about a AEW/DDT partnership that’s sort of been hinted at for a while. Aside from DDT's relationship with Kenny, DDT was Michael Nakasawa's home promotion before he signed with AEW (as both talent and office role). Yuka Sakazaki and Shoko Nakajima who worked in AEW are DDT wrestlers (actually Tokyo Joshi Pro, but that's affiliated with DDT). Riho worked the latest TJPW show and will team with Kenny on the DDT show in a few months. There's already a lot of cross-pollination between AEW and DDT. Even if they don't have a formal, contractual agreement, it's clear they are on good terms with each other. |

I know DDT isn't the biggest promotion over there but feel it translates the best to the US I mean, with the state Puro is in right now DDT's arguably somewhere around the third or second biggest promotion active right now behind NJPW. It helps that NOAH and AJPW are still trying to rebuild to what they once were and Dragon Gate peaked a while ago and somewhat went into a slump after the OWE exodus. |

I was going to ask, isn't DDT now considered a major promotion and no longer indy? I knew before Kenny left they were pretty red hot and Kenny said at the time he felt he helped them become a major promotion but I didn't know if that was still the case. I don't really follow DDT much outside of knowing that Speedball Mike Bailey works there frequently |
