"NJPW stars Nakamura, AJ Styles, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson headed to WWE." Life's about perspective. It all sounds skeptically stupid until it actually happens. Because three of the biggest gaijin talents in NJPW alongside the biggest native talent is the same thing as this. Kenny Omega is the only one named that I believe WWE would actually want to sign. It's going to be a cold day in hell when someone convinces me that WWE actually wants Cody Hall. These guys - besides Cody - also have contracts with New Japan. It's hard to bring in talent that are un-signable. If WWE can sign away 4 of NJPWs biggest stars, then they can certainly sign away 4 of their mid carders. Also, Cody Hall is Scott Hall's son, and Triple H is the head of talent relations. That's not rocket science. WWE also, allegedly, already offered Cody a deal in the past. I don't know what their NJPW contract statuses are, but I don't think any of this is really that far fetched if they can be signed. I thought Omega said he was on a per appearance deal with them but that has changed more recently. So many people bitch about them, but on a business side it would be ridiculous not to try and get them. The Bucks turned down a developmental deal before they signed the ROH deal they're currently under. I think that deal only runs through the end of this year though. WWE is now approaching guys like the Bucks drastically different than how they were in October of last year though. Let's say this Bullet Club thing is planning to run through next year's Mania, then the Bucks could potentially join the fold heading into Mania 33.

They could, in theory, but it's apparently the most lucrative guaranteed deal ROH has ever given out. Both Bucks have young children, and wanted less dates this year. So they get to work for ROH, PWG and NJPW and work less dates than what WWE would be, and they didn't have to move to Orlando. They will probably make twice as much money in 2016 than WWE would even be willing to offer them. I do think they'll come to WWE, but I don't think it's going to be until this ROH deal expires.

Cody Hall is as green as goose crap, and I would love to see this legit report that "WWE offered him a contract in the past". Based on what? He hasn't shown anything worthy of the WWE yet, and just being Scott's son doesn't make this new report any more credible. Maybe if he was a bit more seasoned.

I don't actually hate the Young Bucks, I enjoy them and think their stuff is pretty funny, but they are the epitome of an indy spot monkey team. They do the same stuff every match (Meltzer Driver, More Bang For Your Buck, "come on bay bay", Too Sweet Me, Superkick Party, bicep flex, backflip dropkick combo, etc) and they would get old pretty fast in WWE on TV every week. They're ok now in moderation because I don't see them all that much (monthly in New Japan, and whenever they're in PWG or ROH), but if they were on TV on a regular basis, their matches would all feel the same because they rely on those spots to get a pop from the crowd. I'm not criticising them for that, since it clearly works as they're very popular and well known on the indies, but it would start to get tedious if they were on worldwide TV frequently.

Ric Flairs daughter was offered the same type of deal. You may know her as Charlotte. Reid had the same deal. It's not hard to believe that one of triple hs best friends would have a son that got offered a deal.

Literally all they need is the three they have and Finn Balor.
AJ - WWE Champion Finn - Intercontinental Champion Gallows - Tag Champion Anderson - Tag Champion
Eventually Finn turns face after a power struggle with AJ over leadership of the group and becomes the breakout star of the faction, feuding with AJ for the title.
The Four Horsemen formula is the best when it comes to factions. It worked for DX after WMXIV, it worked for Evolution, it works everywhere.
Tonga and Omega would be more than welcome additions, but I'd much rather see them as singles guys, or Omega replaces Balor when he turns and leaves the group.

Yah I would be happy wish just the addition of Kenny. He wrestled for the same local promotions that I worked for. Great guy, Kenny also left WwE because of this girlfriend at the time. There was personal family issues well he was was in development. I think that was reported way he left as well as the Bill Demontt unprofessional at the development centre.

The speculation needs to stop now, I know Tama personally, I do business the employor of his father(Haku). I can speak factually on Tama and Omega(which comes from Meltzer and Mike Johnson)
Both Tama Tonga & Kenny Omega are contracted to NJPW through February of 2018. Yujiro is going nowhere, because he's awful. Cody Hall will end up in WWE eventually.

If they sign these guys then WOHOOOOOOO. I'm excited.
Although I think Cody Hall could get a bit more training. He is still pretty green in the ring. Maybe if they do sign them, Hall can go to NXT and the others can go to the main roster. If Hall is signet, I expect him to get a major push, whether it be on NXT or the main roster, y' know because Triple H.
