Nick Jackson is being honest.
Fans continue to wonder if and when All Elite Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling will form a partnership. AEW World Champion Chris Jericho will face Hiroshi Tanahashi at Wrestle Kingdom 14 in January and Jon Moxley recently worked the G1 Climax over the summer. On the Oct. 30 episode of AEW Dynamite, a video game intro aired prior to Kenny Omega's entrance with references to NJPW and Kota Ibushi.
Despite the signs of a potential partnership, AEW co-executive vice president Nick Jackson insists there will be no partnership between the two companies.
Not happening.

It’s really not happening. Been asked this thousands of times and telling the truth is always best. Don’t want fans holding onto something that has zero chance of happening.

Gave them about 4-6 months to plan without us.
