Kota Ibushi Announces He Has Signed A Two-Year Extension To Remain With All Elite Wrestling

Kota Ibushi will remain All Elite.

Kota Ibushi signed with AEW in 2023 and has had some golden moments with his best friend, Kenny Omega, and now, he will be able to create more moments in bigger matches as he has announced that the two sides were able to work on a deal and keep Ibushi in All Elite Wrestling for two more years until the former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion is 45-years-old.

This was amazing!! ️The crossroads of life. I was never born to ride a private jet! And I signed a 2 year extension. I still want to live but I have to live. I can’t imagine being in pro wrestling until I’m 45. What more do you want? I don’t know. – Kota Ibushi said on Instagram.

Ibushi’s first match back will be a big one when he teams with Omega, Darby Allin, Will Ospreay, and Hiroshi Tanahashi to battle the Death Riders, the Young Bucks, and Gabe Kidd in a Lights Out Steel Cage match at Forbidden Door.
