As for the possibility of using other wrestlers who have backgrounds in WWE, Kidani said with rising revenues NJPW has more money to pay talents who have had relationships with WWE, and he will continue to do so until “[WWE] says ‘let’s get along.’”
In Toyko Sports Takaaki Kidani said that in two years time he wants to fill the seats in the outfield of the Tokyo Dome and mobilize even more fans. Therefore he says New Japan needs young japanese stars, specifically a heavyweight star in his 20s.
