Big Damo, Christopher Daniels, Bullet Club And More Set For 6/4 NJPW STRONG

New Japan Pro-Wrestling will continue its presentation of the “Mutiny” taping on the June 4 episode of NJPW STRONG.

In a clash between two powerhouses, Big Damo will face Tomohiro Ishii. Plus, Christopher Daniels and Alex Zayne will team up to take on the Bullet Club duo of Chris Bey and El Phantasmo. Finally, Yuya Uemura and KEITA will face Kevin Blackwood and Lucas Riley.

The preview, courtesy of NJPW’s website, is as follows:

Main event: Tomohiro Ishii vs Big Damo

Tomohiro Ishii and Big Damo lock horns in a monster main event clash on STRONG. These two first met in 2015 for Rev Pro, where Ishii was stopped on home promotion turf by the Belfast native; over the intervening seven years, Ishii’s stature in NJPW grew while Damo  would make a major name for himself in the US. When Damo began to ply his trade in NJPW rings on STRONG, it seemed inevitable that this rematch over half a decade in the making would go down, and here we are. Damo has the confidence of a man who knows he can beat Ishii, but the Stone Pitbull has picked up monster victories on his current US tour, including over Minoru Suzuki, Eddie Kingston and JONAH. Will Damo become another victim?

2nd Match: BULLET CLUB (Chris Bey & El Phantasmo) vs Alex Zayne & Christopher Daniels

The ‘Bey-F-Fs of BULLET CLUB’ in Chris Bey and El Phantasmo take on Alex Zayne and Chris Daniels in tag team action tonight. Though Daniels and Zayne are a fresh side in the face of the well tuned chemistry of Bey and ELP, the combination of The Sauce’s dynamism and the Fallen Angel’s experience make this a hard tag team encounter to predict.

1st Match: KEITA & Yuya Uemura vs Kevin Blackwood & Lucas Riley

Tag team action kicks off the evening on STRONG, as Uemura and KEITA team up for the first time to face Kevin Blackwood and Lucas Riley. Four hot young prospects will show the shape of things to come in our opening contest!

The card is as follows:

  • Big Damo vs. Tomohiro Ishii
  • Christopher Daniels and Alex Zayne vs. Chris Bey and El Phantasmo of Bullet Club
  • Yuya Uemura and KEITA vs. Kevin Blackwood and Lucas Riley
