Thurs. #1 is HERE. To help out subscribe to Mistah MegaManFan or support us on Patreon. Don't miss Thursday Night AMP w/ Dan Berg taping at 9 PM ET! With the cheap plugs out of the way here's Thursday's latest wrestling news.

Following KENTA's attack on Jon Moxley on AEW Dynamite last night, the word from Dave Meltzer is that the relationship between New Japan and AEW is now "open," and that it was both "sped up and slowed down" by the global pandemic. Both sides will be limited to doing feuds between wrestlers who are already in the same country for the time being due to a two week COVID-19 quarantine coming and going, but that's no problem for KENTA since he lives in Florida. (WO)

After the live Dynamite broadcast Kenny Omega shot a storyline with KENTA where he offered an overture of friendship, only to be rebuffed by KENTA saying "Shut the fuck up. I'm not your friend. I'm here to beat Jon Moxley." Kenny didn't seem to mind though because he booked KENTA x Omega vs. Moxley x Lance Archer for Lights Out, Falls Count Anywhere match -- if Tony Khan has "the guts" to do it.

New WWE related videos are available below.

In addition here are a few more videos from AEW Dynamite.

From New Japan.

New Japan Pro-Wrestling Co., Ltd. (NJPW) today announced a partnership with Roku, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROKU) to bring NJPW content to The Roku Channel in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. The eponymous New Japan Pro-Wrestling, a one-hour weekly series featuring the athletic action of the world's preeminent pro-wrestling organization, will air episodes featuring top matches and events that have yet to air on television outside of Japan.

Premiering February 11, episodes of New Japan Pro-Wrestling will air every Thursday beginning at 5 pm on The Roku Channel, and will be available on-demand thereafter. Additionally, The Roku Channel will host a block of library content, featuring key highlights from the 2020 NJPW catalogue, with potential for the introduction of more historical content in the future.

We finally know what happened last November when D-Von Dudley basically told everybody to STFU and mind their own business -- he suffered a stroke but in his own words he's "doing much better" now.

To make a long story short Edge believes Undertaker's comments about the current WWE roster being "soft" were taken out of context.
