(STINGER: WWE)

Kevin Owens is reportedly staying with WWE. Fightful reported Wednesday that Owens has re-signed with the company, ending the speculation surrounding his expiring contract and possible future plans.

Today’s NXT UK has A-Kid vs. Nathan Frazer in a Heritage Cup #1 Contender Match.

(STINGER: AEW)

Hangman Page and Bryan Danielson went the distance on last night’s Dynamite. Their AEW Championship match ended in a 60-minute draw. Hangman retains the gold, but one must assume a rematch is coming somewhere down the line.

MJF won the Dynamite Diamond Ring for the third year in a row. He forced Dante Martin to submit after a timely outside assist from Ricky Starks.

Sting and Darby Allin tried a sneak attack on MJF and FTR after the match. But the numbers were too much for them. That’s when CM Punk showed up. And now we have a 6-man tag set for next Wednesday’s Dynamite: Punk, Sting & Allin vs. MJF & FTR.

Also on last night’s show…Hikaru Shida beat Serena Deeb…and Wardlow made quick work of Matt Sydal.

(STINGER: Impact)

On tonight’s Impact Wrestling…

Doc Gallows & Joe Doering team up to face Rich Swann & Willie Mack.

X-Division Champion Trey Miguel faces John Skyler in a non-title match.

Plus, Chris Bey vs. Laredo Kid…Josh Alexander vs. Rohit Raju…and Tenille Dashwood vs. one-half of the Knockouts Tag Champs Jessie McKay.

Before The Impact has Ace Austin vs. Hernandez.

Tonight’s MLW Fusion Alpha has Tajiri defending the MLW Middleweight Title in Japan…against All Japan’s Atsuki Aoyagi.

Plus, LA Park vs. Homicide…and Willow Nightingale vs. Holidead.

(STINGER: New Japan)

New Japan’s Katsuyori Shibata confirmed on Wednesday that he will have a match on January 4th at Wrestle Kingdom 16. This will be Shibata’s first “proper” match since in-ring injury forced him into retirement years ago. Shibata’s opponent for January 4th has yet to be announced.

Shibata made his announcement at New Japan’s World Tag League and Best Of The Super Juniors finals.

As for the matches themselves. Hiromu Takahashi beat YOH to win the Best Of The Super Juniors. He’ll challenge IWGP Jr. Champ El Desperado at Wrestle Kingdom.

Hirooki Goto & YOSHI-HASHI beat EVIL & Yujiro Takahashi to win the World Tag League. That puts them in line to challenge IWGP Tag Champs Taichi & Zack Sabre Jr.
