William Regal was in Japan last weekend for the WWE tour because there was a tryout session. No, Okada and Nakamura were not part of the tryout. There were six men and two women at the tryouts that included Leona Fujinami, Seiya Sanada (you may remember him from TNA), independent wrestler from Osaka named Yohei, and popular women’s wrestler Hikaru Shida. There were other names there too. Sanada lives in the United States but he flew out to do the tryout. Sanada is booked on upcoming Global Force Wrestling shows.
Below are photos of Regal with Kenta Kobashi and Yuji Nagata.
