There will be some more AEW/Impact collaboration in the coming weeks: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} Frankie Kazarian worked the recent Impact tapings. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Seeing the ELITE HUNTER back in his old stomping grounds will be a lot of fun. {Spoiler}I'd like to see Kazarian and Sabin in a segment together talking about that time they tried to prove who really was "The Future".

First time in over 20 years a New Japan title has changed hands on US Soil. On National TV no less.

Last time Kenny and Jay feuded, Kenny tried to recruit Jay to Bullet Club and Jay turned on him and took his US title. This kicked the Omega/Cody feud off and also led to the Golden Lovers reunion. Long story short, there is a lot of story potential in picking this feud back up. To be fair, Kenny played the babyface when Jay beat him: he called off any attack on White and gave him the US belt, sort of a “yep, you got me, you earned it” moment, something that spurred on the eventual Cody betrayal against Kenny. Of course, such a good natured soul like King Switch would gladly return such kindness! …ok, but seriously… Still, I do recall Kenny asking KENTA after Dynamite if “Brother Switchblade” sent him over, but there’s also little doubt that the OG crew still would have kayfabe bitterness towards the Elite. The interesting question, and why it makes sense to have this on Impact, is where the Good Brothers stand on that. They’re clearly with the Elite right now, but alongside Devitt, Fale, and then Tama there’s no getting around that Anderson is one of THE OGs, with Gallows added very early in the run, too, so could they try to peel them away from Kenny and the Bucks? As for Tanahashi, I think there’s no question that he’s expressed a desire to work more in the US. A few years back he said one of his goals was to win the ROH title at some point, and he clearly liked using the Jericho feud to hint at things with AEW, including coining the whole “forbidden door” phrase, so I do think it’s inevitable that he comes over for a run on NJPW Strong and then likely works some other places, too. We may finally get the Bullet Club/Elite feud that should have happened several years ago. I could definitely see the Good Brothers turning on Kenny. I am certainly interested to see how this all plays out. Also Tanahashi in AEW would be fun.

Mickie James appearing on Impact to invite their Women's Champion.....to an NWA PPV! Lance Archer winning the IWGP United States Championship....on AEW Dynamite! Omega set to defend the AAA Mega Championship against Andrade....with both of them on the AEW roster!
Looking forward to more!!

I wonder if we get Mickie on Dynamite.... even if it's just her coming out to "scout" and the NWA gets a mention?

KENTA is doing a meet and greet on New Japan’s YouTube page and is really pushing for a match with CM Punk, in reference to current rumors.

If Tanahashi would like to come to Pittsburgh in two weeks, that would be great.

Tanahashi coined the term “Forbidden Door.”

So Archer will travel to Japan to face Tanahashi.
I feel like there's a legitimate chance that Tana could win the US title.
Do we get Tanahashi vs. Moxley at All Out, or dare I hold out hope that I get to see the Ace class the joint up in Newark or Queens?

Looking like Archer loses the belt to Tana and we get TANA VS MOXLEY at All Out
I appreciate how legitimately they have built up the IWGP US Title. I think AEW's done it better than New Japan has in years...

The Tanahashi vs. Archer match is happening in Los Angeles.
We really could get Tanahashi on Dynamite!
