New Japan will be a subsidiary of TV Asahi once the sale goes through which may be enough of a buffer between them and the CyberFight gang.
On the other hand, TV Asahi and CyberAgent are very close. TV Asahi helped put together ABEMA and they still have a stake in it.
A lot of online speculation is tying the WWE eventual jump to Netflix from ABEMA to the sale but I don't know how much of a factor it really is. I don't think the details of the ABEMA/WWE contract were ever revealed. People think New Japan will fill that scheduling gap. But there is now another option: AEW does not have much of a televised presence in Japan outside of New Japan World.
