Jon Moxley is slated to make his return to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
The promotion recently announced the card for its NJPW Sakura Genesis on April 6th, which will be headlined by Tetsuya Naito defending the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship against the 2024 New Japan Cup tournament.
The co-main event will see EVIL defend the NEVER Openweight Title against Shingo Takagi. Finally, Moxley will team with Shota Umino to take on HOUSE OF TORTURE (Jack Perry & Ren Narita).
Perry has been absent from AEW since All In because of the CM Punk incident, which AEW President Tony Khan is still upset about. Here is the rest of the card for the show:
IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship: SHO (champion) vs. YOH
IWGP Tag Team Championships: Chase Owens & KENTA (champion) vs. Bishamon (YOSHI-HASHI & Hirooki Goto)
IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championships — Three-Way Match: BULLET CLUB War Dogs (Drilla Moloney & Clark Connors) (champions) vs. Kevin Knight & KUSHIDA vs. Catch 2/2 (Francesco Akira & TJP)
