Details on Kazuchika Okada’s Signing with AEW – Last night’s episode of AEW Dynamite marked the highly anticipated debut of Kazuchika Okada, as he officially joined forces with The Young Bucks to become the newest member of The Elite. While fans eagerly awaited this moment, backstage details shed light on how the deal came together, courtesy of a new report from Fightful Select.
It’s revealed that Okada intends to relocate to the United States for his tenure with AEW and is committed to maintaining a regular schedule with the promotion. Tokyo Sports initially reported that his contract spans multiple years, a detail subsequently confirmed by Fightful. However, specific financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed at this time.
Before signing with AEW, speculation swirled about Okada potentially joining WWE. While Okada did reach out to some talents within the company, no official discussions took place between him and WWE regarding a potential contract. AEW emerged as the expected landing place for Okada, primarily due to his existing relationships with many of the promotion’s top stars.
Okada’s addition to The Elite lineup strongly hints at an impending feud with Kenny Omega. However, Omega’s return to action remains uncertain as he continues to recuperate from diverticulitis, a condition that has kept him sidelined in recent months.
As the wrestling world eagerly awaits Okada’s next moves in AEW, his debut signals a significant shift in the landscape of the promotion and sets the stage for compelling storylines and matchups in the future.
