NJPW STRONG is coming to Japan for the first time.
New Japan Pro-Wrestling launched NJPW STRONG in 2020, largely in response to the travel restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. STRONG held tapings in the United States over the course of the next two-plus years, NJPW introduced a new format of NJPW STRONG in 2023, which has seen NJPW events in the United States air as pay-per-views before airing on STRONG on Demand.
During the NJPW Resurgence event on May 21, NJPW announced that NJPW STRONG is coming to Japan for two special Independence Day events in July; the shows will be held in Korakuen Hall on July 4 and 5. Eddie Kingston, Tom Lawlor, Fred Rosser, and other stars have already been advertised for the shows.
The full announcement is available here.
WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
