WWE really is trying to take over the world and following the launch of NXT UK and a Performance Center in the United Kingdom, it's clear that Triple H, in particular, has big plans for WWE/NXT as a global force to be reckoned with. 

Now, a new report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter claims that WWE is considering an NXT Japan brand and some officials have already travelled to the country to start building relationships with the wrestling promotions there. New Japan Pro Wrestling has a lot a lot of talent to All Elite Wrestling, so a collaboration with WWE now seems highly likely. 

There's a large number of Japanese promotions WWE could work with outside of that company and with Triple H saying he wants to expand into the Middle East, Latin America, and India with Performance Centers, it's clear that the company could be about to give these new global brands as big a push as possible. 

Regardless, with a number of huge Japanese stars already part of WWE (Shinsuke Nakamura, Asuka, Kairi Sane, Akira Tozawa, Io Shirai, and Kushida), the stage could be set for the company to make a huge splash in the Far East. As always, we'll keep you guys updated.
