Jon Moxley is set to make his return to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
The NJPW Sakura Genesis card for April 6th has been revealed by the promotion. Tetsuya Naito will be the main main, defending the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship against the 2024 New Japan Cup tournament winner.
The co-main event will feature EVIL defending the NEVER Openweight Title against Shingo Takagi. Finally, Moxley will team up with Shota Umino to take on HOUSE OF TORTURE (Jack Perry and Ren Narita).
