If there is any way AEW could get some Japanese commentary and bring Shinpei Nogami to call this match for Nagata, I’d take it. I’d pay for his airfare and quarantine if need be.

I hope that all this cooperation between AEW, Impact, New Japan, and AAA lasts for a long time.

I hope that all this cooperation between AEW, Impact, New Japan, and AAA lasts for a long time. Not to mention DDT, which would also mean TJPW and NOAH since all 3 of those promotions are under the same umbrella.

I’m so hoping to see a NOAH star soon.
How about Go Shiozaki vs Kenny Omega? There’s a good way to introduce that partnership.

Yeah, seems like a much more logical approach especially considering some of the recent stuff. Nagata doing a match makes sense for the TNT connection, El Phantasmo makes sense because he's a light heavyweight and the X-Division is pretty stacked at the moment, KENTA was a happy set of circumstances that benefited NJPW Strong and AEW, stuff like that. I'm curious to see where things can go when travel is allowed again and touring can happen, especially with All Out and Full Gear near the end of the year and all that can potentially come back in some fashion.

It's interesting. On one hand, some of this is likely happening due to the pandemic, but only once things are safer can they really reach their full potential. So what happens next is going to be interesting to see.

The video package for the match next week was incredible.

If I were them, I'd want, too. I feel like Ishii could show up and attack me in my kitchen at 3 AM, and he'd get at least four stars out of me.

For those interested, Yuji Nagata is doing a livestream meet and greet on New Japan's YouTube page. Lots of talk about AEW, Moxley, and returning to TNT. He has an interpreter who translates to English.

Toru Yano commented on the livestream and said he's fully cheering for Nagata in the match.

Nagata mentioned that during his WCW days, he faced Chris Jericho twice. They're 1-1. Haven't faced each other since.
Interesting this is one of the first things he mentioned when talking about his WCW days...

Just guessing, but I don't see Sony Onoo won't be appearing on any Turner TV.
