That spot has been filled, with Don Callis (formerly known as The Jackyl in WWF and Cyrus in ECW) announcing on the latest episode of his "Killing the Town" podcast that he does with Lance Storm that he has accepted a position to be NJPW World's new lead English color commentary voice. Callis noted on the podcast that he had agreed to the deal within the last week and would be working on the broadcast team alongside Kelly, who he worked with previously in the WWF in the 1990s. Callis thanked Kenny Omega for helping facilitate the deal. NJPW announced last week that they would be ramping up their English commentary broadcast schedule as they attempt to further appeal to international fans.
