AEW and New Japan merger leaves wrestlers confused about which belts they should wear

In a shocking announcement today, AEW and New Japan Pro Wrestling declared their fusion, leaving wrestlers utterly confused about which belts they should wear. Fans were also reported to be baffled and, at times, rather incensed.
AEW was founded in 2019 by Cody Rhodes -- the son of WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes -- and the famed indie wrestlers known as The Young Bucks - Nick and Matt. Since the company's inception, AEW has quickly grown to become one of wrestling's largest and most well-attended promotions. The company is known for bringing in top independent wrestlers from around the world and giving them the platform they deserve.
New Japan Pro Wrestling, on the other hand, is Japan's largest and most successful wrestling promotion, boasting legions of fans worldwide. The promotion is known for its athleticism, its storytelling, and its emphasis on in-ring competition. Many consider it to be the pinnacle of professional wrestling.
The confusion over the wearing of belts has been building for many weeks and has now reached epic proportions. Many wrestlers are unsure whether to wear their AEW belts, their NJPW belts, or perhaps a combination of both. Some are even considering wearing multiple belts, in order to hedge their bets.
As of the time of this reporting, both promotions have declined to comment on the matter. However, sources within the industry say that company officials are working on a solution that will be fair to all. Until that time, wrestlers are advised to wear as many belts as they feel comfortable with.
