According to Tokyo Sports, the leader of NJPW’s Los Ingobernables de Japon and former IWGP intercontinental champion Tetsuya Naito was offered a contract with the WWE after this past summer’s Dominion event, but immediately turned it down. Sources report that Naito didn’t even give it a second thought, claiming that New Japan is his primary focus.
I didn’t even give it thought. This New Japan ring is already the world’s number 1 stage. The fans know this. That’s why I think we should focus on our home crowd before looking international.
