I actually held of posting this information here because I wasn't entirely sure at first. However, with TV Tokyo's site being launched, I'm almost positive they are now involved in the shows production. As to the reason why? It's because of who is in charge of the music production.

The opening song, titles "Metal Fight Beyblade", the lyrics are written and music's composed by Martin Kucaj, while the song is being song by "YU+KI". Martin has been involved in several Nelvana dubs, working as the music composer for all the Beyblade shows and did the Medarot (Medabot) show's theme songs. He also did one song in the Card Captor movie dub.

The music, according to the site, is being composed by Neil Parfitt (Incorrectly spelled "Perfitt", even though Tv Tokyo got it right on their place holder website they had put up for it). I'm not quite familiar with what he has done, music wise, outside of the Bakugan Battle Brawlers' dub and Pandalin's theme song.

In any case, both music composers have worked with Nelvana on several dubs. This leaRAB me to believe that Nelvana is directly involved in the production. To what extent, I don't know.

Makes me wonder why. While I'm not complaining that they're working with the music production (this makes it less likely for them to change the music when it's released here), just I find it weird they would involve themselves directly in the production if true.
 
Two reasons I can see: 1- the Japanese didn't feel like making one on their lonesome and 2- they want a bigger piece of the pie.
 
I don't think we should jump to conclusions. Maybe you did see those names there, but that may not necessarily mean anything. I suggest we wait for the official word instead of making blind speculation about it...just saying.

For what it's worth though, it wouldn't really surprise me if Nelvana were indeed to license this show (which is a co-production beween Tatsunoko and Synergy SP).

FYI: This show is an all new story and continuity that has no connection to Takao Aoki's original story. It's a revival in the purest sense of the word.
 
While I can hope this is true, I must ask how do we know that you are the genuine Neil Parfitt? This would also basically confirm what I said as soon as the new series was announced- Nelvana will get the dub rights to the series, and since there shows are now airing on CN, it means Beyblade could be headed to CN.
