Today on the “VIP Lounge”, MVP‘s podcast on MLW Radio, there was a brief discussion on Shinsuke Nakamura and how he will be utilized in WWE if is signed to the company.

At one point, MVP mentioned that he has heard rumors of KENTA (Hideo Itami) wanting to go back to Japan. MVP made it clear that he wasn’t sure if there was anything to these rumors, but his co-host and former WWE creative team member Alex Greenfield said that he has heard the rumors as well.

There is nothing more to the rumor than what was heard today on the “VIP Lounge” at this point in time. Both Alex Greenfield & MVP have obvious inside connections in the business, but there is always the possibility that Hideo Itami is homesick & frustrated since he’s been out of action with injury.

We will keep you posted if there is anything more on this story than just pure speculation.
