I could see the Young Bucks possibly signing at some point, if for no other reason than there's really not much left for them to do outside of the WWE, and they don't seem like the kind of guys who would be happy just coasting for the rest of their careers.  But Omega has expressed zero interest in leaving Japan.  

That's kinda what I was saying though. The only way I see him making the jump is if it's a "Godfather offer"

I guess I'm the only one that doesn't have a problem with HHH/Undertaker? I mean, do I want to see it at the top of the card? No. But, on the other hand, do I want to see another Reigns main event, or an underwhelming Nakamura/Styles match? That's also a no.

I wonder if they put Global Warning up on the Network before the return to Melbourne. I know there was a home video release as I remember seeing the DVD in a Suncoast how ever many years ago that was, 16?

It's true.  But then again I remember the same disagreements over Balor and Anderson that they would "never" come over and had no interest leaving NJPW.  Things change, money talks and...

He'll be 35, in a job that chews you up, working a style that has to be taking a serious toll on his body. If WWE offers him, say, double, he's gonna have to at least consider it. At some point, there is a level that it's hard to turn down.

I'm far from convinced Vince will be willing to pay him that much, but if Triple H convinces him they need Kenny, well... Vince just got 2.5 billion in TV contracts.

I don't remember any such talk about Anderson and Balor. I recall it being known that Anderson wanted to eventually go to WWE. He was even asking Bernard/Albert/Bloom for advice. I don't think it was a secret that Balor wanted to go either.

Karl Anderson and Finn Balor WEREN'T IN WWE in the past.

That has to be added to the mix for Kenny Omega going to WWE: He was there under a developmental deal in the past! Omega knows what being in the WWE was like, and by all accounts Omega HATED IT THERE! Even if most of it was being a victim of DeMott bullying, Omega despised his time in the WWE and absolutely loves everything about Japan. 

With the Young Bucks, there's a chance that you make a price tag so high they have to go into the void. With Omega, you have to find a price tag SO HIGH that he's willing to leave a promotion and life that he loves to go back to a life that he hated, and he does seem, as was said, like a "quality of life guy".

The three-way main event is in the Hidden Gems section, at least.

Today marks the fifth anniversary of the quite possibly the best segment in the history of Monday Night Raw, when Mark Henry "retired" and then put his boot up John Cena's ass.

WWE does want him but Kenny wants to stay in Japan and until WWE offers something that is worth it to leave Japan then he's not leaving.  

I can understand that for Kenny Omega.

I remember how so many of us were kind of annoyed at Sheamus when he first showed up and got pushed to the stars because he was Hunter's friend. (or protege or whatever) But he has turned out to be likable AF. I have just subbed to his workout channel. 

I love how he keeps having to calm down hyper little Becky here. 

Is she always like that? Or did she maybe take a pre-workout that was kicking in? LOL

I know the IIconics aren't big deals in the company yet, but are they not over is Australia at least?  I would think maybe you'd promote them more than you would otherwise or maybe put them on the poster.

Then again, Vince probably plans to job the IIconics out and humiliate them, so.... never mind?  Besides, Finn is white and smiles a lot.  i can imagine Vince re-gimmicking him as an Australian.
