It has been reported that WWE, under the new leadership of Triple H, is said to be keen on signing AEW star Konosuke Takeshita. At just 27 years of age, Takeshita has become one of the brightest stars on AEW television over the past few months. The Japanese star has gone toe-to-toe with the likes of Jon Moxley (a.k.a Dean Ambrose), Claudio Castagnoli, and Adam Page. Given his string of impressive performances, Dave Meltzer stated on the most recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE is interested in bringing the top Japanese talent into the company. "It’s not like he’ll be here for a year and then they can never use him again. So the fact that they don’t have him under a five-year deal or anything like that, shouldn’t be incumbent on (how they use him). I don’t know what his deal is with DDT. WWE, if he doesn’t have a full-time deal somewhere… WWE is looking for a big Japanese guy as we speak, and this guy’s got some size, and he’s young, and he’s got a good body, and he’s a fantastic wrestler. So somebody there may stumble upon him and be interested, because he’s exactly what they’re looking for."

WWE veteran on Triple H trying to bring back more stars Since The Game became the company's new head of creative, he has brought back several performers such as Dakota Kai, Scarlett Bordeaux and Karrion Kross to the company. However, two Superstars that fans are hoping to see make their return are Sasha Banks and Naomi, and Triple H has worked with them very closely in the past. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's SmackTalk, former WWE Manager Dutch Mantell shared his belief that bringing back both women would be huge for The King of Kings. "Well, that would be a big feather in Triple H's cap if he could get them back. Because I think they are missed. You could tell in that girl's match, which wasn't bad, by the way," he said. (H/T Sportskeeda_ Following last week's success, fans will be tuning into Monday Night RAW tonight with a keen eye to see how Hunter's creative direction for WWE continues.
