[1/10] Spectators watch a match at All Together Again Pro Wrestling event in Tokyo, Japan, June 9, 2023. AEW founder Tony Khan said 65,000 tickets have already been sold for the Wembley show, and "it would be a huge benefit to AEW if there is participation from New Japan Pro Wrestling and some of their top stars in the event." The scripted and often ridiculous spectacle of pro wrestling is a serious player in the entertainment sector. New Japan President Takami Ohbari said teaming with AEW would give the companies more of a fighting chance against a merged WWE and UFC operator Endeavor Group (EDR.N). "It's really mutually beneficial in terms of the global expansion for New Japan and also for AEW," Ohbari said.

When hedge fund Three Arrows Capital collapsed last year, it left the crypto world reeling. But the firm's founders, Kyle Davies and Su Zhu, have reportedly had it pretty good ever since. Just because your crypto firm collapsed, doesn't mean you are going to end up on house arrest at your parents' pad. As the liquidation process began for their crypto firm, both founders flew to Bali — Indonesia notably doesn't have an extradition treaty with the United States — the Times reported. According to the Times, Zhu started to hang out with surfers and UFC fighters.
