NJPW is keeping Drilla Moloney.
The 29-year-old English talent announced on Wednesday that he has inked a new deal with NJPW following a tag win alongside fellow Unbound Company faction teammate Shingo Takagi as part of this year’s New Beginning in Osaka card.
While Moloney started his speech by teasing a potential departure, he made it clear by the end that he’s not leaving NJPW.

Like many NJPW stars, Moloney’s latest deal was up at the start of this year, Fightful Select wrote back in December. His move to stick with the company breaks from the latest trend of many big names leaving, as both Hiromu Takahashi and EVIL have departed in recent weeks.
Moloney has been a frequent name in NJPW since 2023, joining the Bullet Club War Dogs alongside David Finlay and Clark Connors. He has remained with those two despite Bullet Club’s disbandment this year, following them to the new Unbound Company group.
The two-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion is expected to compete as part of this year’s New Japan Cup, the English commentary feed said on Wednesday. The single-elimination tournament is scheduled to begin on March 4.
