According to sources, part of the reason (though certainly not the only reason) that WWE signed KENTA is that they plan to expand the WWE Network into Japan next year and wanted a big Japanese star.

KENTA is scheduled to arrive in Orlando, Florida this week, with another press conference scheduled then.
