NEVER Openweight Title Match Set For NJPW Resurgence

The first match has been set for NJPW Resurgence. Resurgence is scheduled to take place at the Torch at LA Coliseum on August 14 and Jay White will defend the NEVER Openweight Championship against David Finlay in a headline match. This will be the first time White has defended the gold since...

I guess they didn't want to blow Mox Vs Jay White Title Vs Title right away plus David Finlay Vs Jay White is a damn strong match in its own right.

I wonder what Mox does on the show. Maybe team up with Shooter against Team Filthy? Idk

NJPW STRONG is making its fan attended debut on August 14th at The L.A. Coliseum*


*I was like "Why the eff is NJPW STRONG running a 100,000 coliseum!?" but it sounds like a Daily's Place type situation, where it's a 10,000 seat ampitheater that is adjacent to the Coliseum...which still seems way too ambitious for NJPW but more reasonable especially if Mox and Jay White are going to be there but Lio Rush is also pictured in the ad and he retired a month ago so who the frig knows?[/spoiler]

cc @909

Yeah that's my mom's birthday and I can't go lol.

 

[909]

Also tbh I've seen literally almost all these guys work in great matches besides, so it isn't that big of a deal that I can't go. I'll get the next time.

 

[King Kamala]

It'd still be cool to see pro wrestling at the base of the L.A Coliseum. It's probably the first time a wrestling card has been held there in 50 years.

[King Kamala]

Oh great. It'll probably Sami Callihan then.

(@Laz : Great!!!)

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

MAYBE ITS TAGUCHI

 

[King Kamala]

Oh man! I will mark the frig out if Mox and Coach Taguchi do stereo hip attacks on those bald headed oafs.

This match could be real real good even if Moose is a piece of trash.

 

[Big Beard Booty Daddy]

It sucks that Moose is a piece of shit, because he's having a really good year with a few low level MOTY contenders.

 

[King Kamala]

So is Lio Rush unretired again?

So is Lio Rush unretired again?

He said when he got injured that when he was healthy he was going to fulfill his NJPW commitments since he had just signed the deal with them.

Even bigger news, Yuya is on excursion in the US, which means he could show up in AEW!

I thought it was a curious decision to do their first set of STRONG road tapings in a market that NJPW bombed pretty hard in (while using their full roster) for the G1 Climax kickoff show back in 2019.

Spent only 42 bucks. Well worth it.

 

[King Kamala]

NJPW Strong is moving to Saturdays at 8 PM EST on 9/18.

Also this should be real, real good.

Oooooooh

I know this was supposed to happen at Spring Break before the pandemic. GCW was running a story where he and Blake Christian were calling out Ospreay, with the endgame being a 3 way. Ospreay being an asshole aside, this match should be tremendous.
