Fightful.com has put together a list of ongoing expected free agency periods for major stars in WWE, NJPW, ROH, Impact Wrestling, and MLW. The list includes major NJPW stars, such as IWGP heavyweight champion Kenny Omega. According to the report, these are “confirmed” contract expiration periods that have been reported by other news outlets or stated by the in-ring talents themselves.

If you are curious as to why Chris Amann is listed here, that’s because his contract expiration period was reported by The Wrestling Observer earlier this year. Additionally, Lucha Underground deals reportedly have a six-month no complete clause after the date of the final episode of the season.

Meanwhile, Kenny Omega’s current NJPW deal is expected to expire in January 2019.
