The bout was supposed to take place at ZERO1’s twentieth anniversary show in Ry?goku Kokugikan on March 14 – as well as Naomichi Marufuji versus Shoki Kitamura – but the show was postponed to 2022 and both matches were moved to tomorrow’s show.

ZERO1 has also announced it will hold a show in Shin-Kiba 1st Ring on March 11. The show was originally scheduled to take place on January 14 but ZERO1 postponed all shows last month due to the state of emergency in Tokyo.

All Japan Pro Wrestling

Atsushi Onita stole the old All Asia Tag Team Championships after attending a talk show with Masanobu Fuchi at the Giant Baba Bar yesterday.

Onita said the new All Asia Tag Team Championships, currently held by Izanagi and Zeus, are not cool. He also promised to defend the old titles.

Whether this leads to an angle or match(es) in All Japan remains to be seen. An article covering the incident, including pictures of Onita walking around Tokyo with the titles, can be viewed here.
