It was announced that Hikaru Sato will be defending the World Junior Heavyweight belt against Tatsuhito Takaiwa on July 14 at Korakuen.

Takaiwa was the first to challenge the new champion back on June 23 and subsequently then picked up a direct fall over Sato on June 25 show. This put him in the direct line as a challenger which has now been decided to take place on the tour kick-off show on the 14th. A six man tag was also added to the show as Masanobu Fuchi will be teaming with Ultimo Dragon and BASARA’s Trans-Am★Hiroshi, formerly Hiroshi Fukuda, as they take on SUSHI, Osamu Nishimura and Ryuji Hijikata.
