On his podcast this week, Jim Ross noted during his interview with Chris Jericho that he renewed his deal with AXS TV for another year. So he would be able to voice-over his match with Kenny Omega when it airs on the channel.
Jericho noted during the interview that he is working with New Japan Pro Wrestling to have the Wrestle Kingdom event available through traditional PPV means, so people without access to New Japan World would be able to view it.
On whether Vince McMahon knew about his deal with NJPW before it was publicly announced, he said he would not go into any specifics but mentioned that being smart, he would not do anything that would jeopardize their relationship. He added that if Vince knew what an effect such a match can have on his own business, then he should not have a problem with it.
