On a recent media call to promote tonight’s ROH Final Battle 2023 pay-per-view event, Tony Khan discussed the potential for the IWGP Global Title to be defended on AEW or ROH TV.
The inaugural champion will be determined at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 18 next month in a match featuring Jon Moxley, Will Ospreay, and David Finlay.
Khan said, “I’d certainly be open to having any of New Japan’s great champions defending the title in AEW or ROH or any promotion. I think that’s great. New Japan Pro-Wrestling has a really, really exciting roster, and they have some of the best wrestlers, and we have a really exciting opportunity, going forward, to present, what I believe, is a unified champion across the Triple Crown. With any New Japan champion, we would certainly welcome them to compete as part of the same spirit of competition and partnership with New Japan. We’re excited about that news and it certainly creates another exciting opportunity in the world of pro wrestling with the great roster New Japan offers.“
