While reports may have noted that Konosuke Takeshita is exactly what WWE are looking for, the international star revealed exclusively to Cultaholic following PROGRESS Wrestling's show in Newcastle upon Tyne that he has no interest in joining the McMahon-led organisation.

Instead, Takeshita is looking to return to All Elite Wrestling and he is hoping to be back in the United States in October.

"To be honest, now I'm not interested in WWE. My next goal is more fights in AEW I hope. So I have to go to back to Japan in August and September. Maybe, not decided yet, I hope I go back to America in October. Then if I stay in the US I can come to the UK more times. From Japan to the UK is so far but US to UK is maybe seven hours. It's possible," Takeshita said.

Man, if somehow TK can do the impossible and pry Takeshita out of Sanshiro Takagi’s cold dead hand, AEW might really have “their” Japanese guy.
