Fightful Select are reporting that multiple companies are interested in former WWE star Jonah Rock.

Rock, who was known as Bronson Reed during his stint with WWE, is on the radar of promotions like New Japan Pro Wrestling and Impact. Fightful claims that NJPW, in particular, "made a big play" to sign Jonah up to a contract.

Rumours also persist that Rock will show up on Impact's Bound For Glory 2021 pay-per-view. That happens on Saturday night (23 October); major matches include Christian Cage vs. Josh Alexander for the Impact World Title and Deonna Purrazzo vs. Mickie James for the Knockouts Championship.

Could Jonah Rock debut and take Impact by storm? Don't rule it out.

New Japan were believed to be leading the chasing pack though, and there's no doubt the former NXT North American Champion could make a splash in Japan. He has a menacing look, but Rock can also move for a big man - his agility is incredible.

The one-time Bronson Reed's no-compete clause with WWE ended in late-September. Basically, he's free to sign with whomever he wishes imminently. New Japan and Impact look like his most likely destinations.
