Jon Moxley will return to New Japan Pro Wrestling next month in Osaka.
It was revealed during Wrestling Dontaku that the former IWGP United States Champion will return at Dominion next month on Sunday, June 4.
After the NEVER Openweight 6-Man title match, Umino confronted the new champions and revealed a video of Moxley making the announcement of his return to the country.

It was heavily teased that Umino & Moxley will team with a third member to challenge new champions Kazuchika Okada, Hiroshi Tanahashi & Tomohiro Ishii at Dominion.
Moxley wrestled Umino at Dominion in June 2019, which was Moxley’s second match with the promotion after leaving WWE earlier that year.
This will be Moxley’s first match in Japan since February 2020 when he defended the IWGP United States Championship against Minoru Suzuki.
NJPW Dominion takes place at Osaka-jo Hall and will stream live on New Japan World.
