An article in Tokyo Sports recently revealed how Nakamura was able to receive permission from WWE to do the match.
>"After a disagreement at first, he persisted in negotiating with a new regime after Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon retired in July," a translation of the article reads. "The final agreement was reached on the 26th of this month, and it seems that the tenacity has paid off."
Nakamura mentioned in the article that the match against Muta is something he worked hard to make happen.
>"It's nothing but a miracle," Nakamura said. "Of course, I wanted to do it. I opened a door that no one could break in. Hahaha...it's a real 'Forbidden Door'."
>"I think it's really fate, and I worked hard to make it happen. I've fought Keiji Muto twice in the past, but this was my first encounter with Great Muta, the first and last. I definitely think that I am in the midst of the miracle of the times,” he continued.
Keiji Muto's last match as The Great Muta will take place on January 22, 2023 at The Great Muta Final Bye-Bye show in Yokohama. He will team with Sting on the show. Muto's retirement tour then concludes with his final match on February 21, 2023, at the Tokyo Dome.
