#5: KUSHIDA heading to WWE?
As the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion, it's safe to say that New Japan Pro Wrestling certainly have a lot of faith in KUSHIDA.
After all, the 35-year-old is in his 6th reign with the title, and doesn't seem intent on dropping it anytime soon.
But according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the WWE are hoping to sign the Japanese star, hopefully at some point in 2019.
The report also states that if he were to sign, KUSHIDA would be joining NXT, instead of going to the main roster like fellow New Japan-alum, AJ Styles.
With the WWE hoping to expand their NXT brand even more in 2019, there is the possibility of an NXT Japan division in the near future.
