Akira Tozawa sets his goal for 2026 after his unsuccessful outing in the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble.
Tozawa came out during the Men’s Royal Rumble, as he was the eighth entrant. However, he never made it to the ring. Carmelo Hayes attacked him, and he was taken to the back. IShowSpeed then replaced him in the match.
In a tweet, Akira Tozawa commented on his brief appearance at WWE Royal Rumble. He stated that it had been eight years since he came to WWE, and Saturday marked his first time making an entrance at the Royal Rumble. Tozawa wrote that he wanted to take even one step closer to the ring next year.
