Fight Club: Pro Running Japan Show in January Around Wrestle Kingdom
Fight Club: Pro has announced that they will be heading to Korakuen Hall in January. FCP is one of the top promotions in the UK. Fight Club has hosted several of Japan’s biggest stars over the past few years.
Usually based in their hometown of Wolverhampton, FCP has seen the likes Bullet Club’s Young Bucks & Kenny Omega facing British Strong Style in 2017 and more recent shows have seen Dragon Gate stars such as CIMA appear. CIMA recently faced WWE United Kingdom Champion Pete Dunne as part of their Project Mayhem weekender.
January in Japan is of course the biggest month of the year. New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Tokyo Dome show is an integral part of the country’s global exposure and now Fight Club will be able to join the festivities of that iconic event. The move to bring the UK style to Japanese shores in interesting. WWE’s WrestleMania event sees independent promotions from all over the globe descend on the host city and whilst Wrestle Kingdom is on a far smaller scale it is the ‘WrestleMania’ of New Japan’s year. Being one of the first ‘outside’ companies to run a show around January 4th certainly adds a new element to proceedings.
