NJPW Announces Full Card For Wrestle Grand Slam In Tokyo Dome

New Japan Pro Wrestling has announced the full card for Wrestle Grand Slam in Tokyo Dome. The event was originally supposed to take place in May, with a sister event in Yokohama Stadium, but Tokyo’s shifting state of emergency restrictions left it postponed until further notice. Well, further notice is here, and now the event will take place on July 25th.

The main event of Shingo Takagi defending the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship against Kota Ibushi was announced previously, but now that match is joined by three more title matches, a huge grudge match, and a battle royal to determine the KOPW 2021 provisional trophy holder.

The full card is below. The show will air with both Japanese and English commentary at 4am ET on NJPWWorld, with the New Japan Rumble taking place at 3am ET.
