Well one they worked a show over in Japan TODAY. Unless Nakamura can teleport....
2, there's absolutely no reason for either man to go to WWE when they're 2 of the biggest stars in NJPW and probably making tons of money. Well the article said they received a tryout in TOKYO. That would be the capital of Japan.

The fact they had tryouts suggests there's interest from both parties. You gotta believe the best place to have one of these guys debut would be on the show today. I dont know of either guy, looking forward to seeing more foreign guys in WWE cause they bring something different to the product.

Part non-rumor, part rumor - the non-rumor end is that there were a few Joshi talents at the tryouts. I was told by the guy who runs Stardom's English website (an American living in Japan at the current) that Hikaru Shida wrestled Nikki Storm, who was working with the ladies trying out at William Regal's behest. Nikki's over in Japan working for Stardom at the moment.
The rumor end is that one of the other joshi talents was Io Shirai.

Gotta admit, I became slightly erect when I read the thread title.

Don't think the E would utilize them in the right way.

If we get The King of Strong Style and The Rainmaker in WWE We will get The Great Nakano and "The Snowmaker" Ohara in NXT

Now I'm imagining Okada, Nakamura and Hideo forming a WWE version of Bullet Clb where instead of it being foreigners invading Japan it's Japanese invading America.

As much talent and fame these two have, I feel they would not be a good fit in the WWE. I hope all the best though. Same was said about Steen.

Sounds good but I'll believe it when we get more info. How on Earth does anyone here know how much money Japanese wrestlers make? And that was in 2013... Figure the Japanese stars are making more. $640,OOO is a crap-ton of money. Certainly not HHH or Undertaker money but I'd love to have it. You probably have to figure in the weaker Yen. It sucks that they have to pop the crowd in order to get a PPV bonus though. That seems a bit harsh.

I'm pretty sure thats more than 75-90% of the WWE roster.

I read it like he thought that the Japanese stars should be making more.

If we get The King of Strong Style and The Rainmaker in WWE The problem with that is The King wouldn't be allowed to use Strong Style anymore.
