It seemed like he was for sure gonna be Ueno’s “generational rival” but the combination of his injury and not being the same wrestler he was seems to have halted that (with MAO having a better claim to be Ueno’s main rival from the same generation).

DOUKI of NJPW!

Antonio Honda, who Sasaki & DOUKI will face, said he’ll reveal his tag partner at an unspecified date before August 11th.

In a gripping match, Ueno would survive Aoki’s grappling to slap the Sleeper Hold on Aoki and force Aoki to tap out!

Ueno makes his 8th successful defense of the KO-D (3 more defenses away from tying Takeshita V11).

Afterwards, Ueno would be challenged by MAO (who defeated Sanshiro Takagi on the semi-main event) for the Title at WRESTLE PETER PAN on August 11th at Ryogoku; match was made official.
