– Nick Jackson of the Young Bucks posted a DM on Instagram from a fan who asked if Kenny Omega would be at the Royal Rumble. He wrote: “He specifically told me if you randomly messaged me I should tell you. So here it is…Yes, he will be there to breach his contract and illegally wrestle for another company.

Omega’s NJPW contract isn’t expected to end until January 31 but he’s expected to sign with AEW over WWE.

Wrestling Inc reports that Capitol Wrestling has signed a new deal to stream content in China through Shuaijiao.

Capitol said in a statement: “Capitol Wrestling continues their digital and traditional expansion efforts, as the Jersey City based wrestling brand will officially be streaming their content into China!
