10 Wrestling Worst Nightmares Right Now
9. The New AEW/NJPW Relationship Collapses
"The Forbidden Door" has at long last opened. Please, please don't let it get slammed shut like a Sky Sports transfer window.
KENTA appearing on AEW Dynamite (and subsequently working on the following week's show) was confirmation that All Elite Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling have at long last struck up some sort of arrangement that could allow the sort of inter-promotional action that hasn't really existed since The Elite left the indies in 2019.
But wrestling has a disparate history with communal company co-existence. The original National Wrestling Alliance made committee decisions for the good of its territories, but internal fragmenting in the 1980s and Vince McMahon's steamrolling through the North American landscape did away with much of the loose good will.
Typically, bookers want the best for their talents first and foremost. It's ironic that it's WWE bringing Peacock into wrestling headlines of late, because there'll likely be an awful lot of that going on should tempers fray between the various wrestlers and bosses it takes to make a co-promotion work.
When it does though, it's wrestling utopia - and the world's never needed that more.
