On the very same episode of AEW Dynamite where former WWE Superstar Keith Lee made his shocking debut, one of New Japan Pro Wrestling's most prominent international stars walked through the proverbial "Forbidden Door."
That star ended up being the New Zealand-born Jay White, who blew everyone's minds when he appeared onscreen to get in on a backstage beatdown alongside his former Bullet Club brethren. My mind was particularly blown since Jay is quite busy at the moment as he competes for Impact Wrestling and wrestles on New Japan Strong - to see him now start working for AEW is pretty wild, is it not?
Jay's one of those homegrown NJPW Dojo trainees that eventually grew into a supremely talented wrestler who's won championships and spread his influence to one of the biggest stables in wrestling (Bullet Club). His heelwork is topnotch, his in-ring is smooth, and his persona makes him so easy to root against. And now that's he set to do damage in Tony Khan's marquee wrestling fed, here's a list of guys I'd love to see the "Switchblade" take on during his tenure.
