The Great-O-Khan is proud that the United Empire is expanding its presence across the world.
The United Empire consists of O-Khan, Jeff Cobb, Aussie Open, and current IWGP U.S. Champion Will Ospreay, a faction that formed back in 2020 and has become one of the more dominant groups in NJPW. However, Aussie Open recently penned a deal with AEW, a move that O-Khan is happy about since it was all part of the plan.
Speaking to Tokyo Sports O-Khan had this to say about Aussie Open in AEW, adding that he also received big offers from Tony Khan but he decided to stay in Japan.
Aussie Open (Mark Davis & Kyle Fletcher) went to AEW [as] an order to expand the Empire’s area of control… As planned. There are big offers from Tony Khan, and MJF has asked me to fight for him, but I turned them down in favor of my invasion of New Japan.
As noted, Aussie Open signed with AEW back in May. Group member Mark Davis has been out of action with an injury but Kyle Fletcher has continued to compete as a singles wrestler in that time.
