The show, which will be All Japan’s last of the year, was Zeus’ first match since October. He was scheduled to compete in the Real World Tag League but was forced to miss the tournament due to COVID-19. He submitted Ryuki Honda in the second match.
It was Yusuke Okada’s last appearance under contract with the company. It was announced earlier this week he will leave All Japan at the end of December due to contract expiry. However, due to Okada’s recent booking following the departure of his personal friend Akiyama earlier this year, some have wondered if there is more to the story. Okada was pinned by Jun Kasai.
All Japan has confirmed its two shows in Korakuen Hall on January 2 and 3 will air live on AJPW TV.
Ikuto Hidaka will return to All Japan on January 2 to team with Koji Iwamoto against Fuminori Abe and Takuya Nomura. Abe and Nomura currently hold the BJW Tag Team Championships.
Izanagi and Zeus will defend the All Asia Tag Team Championships against Hokuto Omori and Koji Doi on January 3. It will be Izanagi and Zeus’ second defense of the championships.
