New Japan Pro Wrestling released all the line-ups for the Summer Struggle shows through Wrestle Grand Slam at the Tokyo Dome.

The full card for the July 25th event at the Tokyo Dome was announced Sunday with six matches scheduled. Over the weekend, ticket sales were halted by the promotion as a result of the latest state of emergency in Tokyo that went into effect Monday.

Kota Ibushi is not listed for the promotion’s next three events but is advertised for Monday, July 19th after the performer has been dealing with side effects from a COVID vaccination shot.

The line-ups include the full cards for a major stretch with back-to-back nights in Osaka on July 22nd & 23rd followed by a date in Nagoya at the Dolphins Arena on July 24th and then in the Tokyo Dome on July 25th.

The July 24th card at the Dolphins Arena is headlined by Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. KENTA and Tomohiro Ishii vs. EVIL with those four not scheduled at Wrestle Grand Slam the next day.
