    Jimmy Havoc signed! Another biggie. Loads of charisma, great character, and he'll do anything. I can see the concerned headlines and outrage from the wrestling world after the inevitable Joey Janela death match already.

    I want that death match badly lol

    d--- I need to update the OP with all the news signings! Maybe I'll wait until tmrw after the press conference...anyone have any guesses on who else they will announce tmrw? I assume we will get at least a few new names and a couple matches announced for Double or Nothing.

    Well, Omega is a free agent now. Although that almost seems too obvious. Any more news on the possibility of Goldberg?

    Already card of the year, depending on the time given. Shouldn't have that problem again after All In.

    So much for Jericho never being able to take the One Winged Angel again lol

    I had no idea Aja Kong was still active. She was a sole survivor at SS 95.

    So glad Kenny didn’t jump ship to WWE thank godddd

    I’ll be honest, I’ll miss him in NJPW. I’d rather he have stayed there than anywhere else because he was literally my fav ever in that company...but I know he and the elite have big things planned and how they can deliver how they want to

    He did an interview with Dave and Garrett today where he mentioned it's a four year deal where he can still work New Japan. He said they want to work with everyone who wants to work with them.

    At the moment, no. But if he said if Harold shows interest in bringing him in, he has it in his deal where he can still appear for NJPW

    It's more the ROH/New Japan partnership that's holding things back. He initially thought about being full time New Japan on loan for All Elite.

    What was most interesting about the interview is when Kenny said New Japan was the third choice. It really says a lot that when they started talking money/dates/CREATIVE that WWE was more accommodating and "excited" to have him. Kinda laughed and bit his tongue when Dave pressed him about the issues. Could tell he was annoyed with them during his post match promo against Fenix.

    I'm definitely gonna pick up the We Are All Elite shirt.

    GOLDBERG's bagel company

    IBUSHI said he's staying in New Japan and will win the cup next month. I feel like if he'd be with All Elite he wouldn't have came out like this. It's always a nightmare for him when he travels to the US so it shouldn't be so surprising :emoji_slight_frown:

    Pre sale tickets sold out in 30 again. At this point they should run a 20+K building.

    And they're talking to Batista.
