10 Wrestlers Who MUST Be Signed For All Elite Wrestling

10. Kota Ibushi

Though still only a freelancer for New Japan Pro Wrestling, Kota Ibushi has worked himself into one of the most high profile spots in the company on talent and charisma alone.

The 'Golden Star' made it to the final of this year's G1 Climax on the back some absolutely phenomenal in-ring performances buoyed by the rebirth of his Golden Lovers partnership with Kenny Omega. It's the rebirth of this legendary tale that's earned Ibushi even more attention that his high flying exploits had in years gone by, and that same acclaim that banked him a spot in the six-man main event of ALL IN alongside showrunners The Young Bucks.

A natural fit amongst The Elite (and actual member of The Golden Elite) Ibushi is already a part of this universe, and can wrestle the type of matches that could stand to entirely define it. Though it surely has a place in NJPW's plans going forward, All Elite Wrestling could theoretically claim the next Ibushi/Omega singles match and all the remarkable plaudits that could flood in alongside it.
