Former WWE Superstar Mustafa Ali is coming to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
During Friday’s NJPW Battle In The Valley 2024 pay-per-view event in San Jose, the company aired a vignette to announce that Ali is bringing his 2024 political wrestling campaign to NJPW.
Ali issued a challenge to Hiromu Takahashi for a match at NJPW ‘Windy City Riot’, which is scheduled for April in Ali’s hometown of Chicago, Illinois.
Following Ali’s announcement, Takahashi took to social media to respond to the challenge. He wrote, “Us Ohhhhhhhhh!Yeaaaahhhhhhhhh! Mustafa Ali 🐈 #njbitv”
NJPW ‘Windy City Riot’ will be held on April 12 at the Wintrust Arena in Chicago, IL. Tickets are currently on sale for the event.
AJ Francis (formerly Top Dolla) made his TNA debut at Friday’s Hard To Kill 2024 pay-per-view event in Las Vegas, NV.
Francis appeared on the pre-show to present his new music video with DJ Whoo Kid.
Joe Hendry, who interrupted Francis, had his own video ready for the audience, showcasing the story of Francis’ career, washing out of the NFL followed by WWE.
This angered Francis, who then attacked and beat down Hendry with help from Whoo Kid.
