According to online reports, WWE has reached a deal that will see Hideo Itami shared with his former company, NOAH.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE and NOAH reached a talent-sharing agreement when it comes to the former Kenta star, who is set to compete for NOAH in August. There were rumors that Itami was going to leave the WWE, but that appears to no longer be the case, with this deal perhaps being used to keep the Japanese star around.
Itami (as KENTA) worked for Pro Wrestling Noah for nearly 13 years, winning the Junior Heavyweight Championship three times and the GHC Heavyweight Championship once.
