Rumors of a WWE NXT Japan brand has intensified, according to a new report.
Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that officials have talked to a number of companies in Japan about a potential deal as they have been working on this project.
It was noted that although WWE has tried to buy a Japanese promotion, they have yet to make a deal with anyone. This would serve as a foundation for NXT Japan
In fact, one of the promotions that the company has talked with is Pro Wrestling NOAH, but a deal could not be reached.
The idea is to have WWE try to hire top Japanese talents to work as trainers and wrestlers for the new brand. There’s also been talk of WWE building another Performance Center.
