Contrary to what the rumor mill is churning out, NJPW booker Gedo is not stepping down.

The rumor -- alleging Gedo had stepped down from his head booker position before Dominion -- began to catch fire this morning on social media.

According to Uproxx, however, the information isn't true. We've also spoken with independent sources who back up the report from Uproxx.

Gedo has worked behind the scenes in NJPW for years and became head booker in 2015. He's helped lead the company to financial success and international expansion. 

There's been no official comment on the matter from NJPW at this time.
