NJPW superstar El Phantasmo has hinted that his deal with NJPW will expire on January 31st (Fightful Select Paywall)

‍

NJPW Strong Tag Team Champion El Phantasmo heavily hinted to us that his deal with the company is up at the end of January 31. We’ve not confirmed this with New Japan Pro Wrestling sources, but the Guerrillas of Destiny star was certainly pointing that direction. He noted to Sean Ross Sapp that he was headed into a contract period.

‍

Interest in El Phantasmo has been picking up since 2019 since AEW expressed interest in him, yet no deal was done as he returned to New Japan.

It’s also been reported that WWE has been interested in his tag team partner, Hikuleo, since last year.
