Mascara Dorada vs. TJP, Jay Lethal Bout And More Set For 4/30 NJPW STRONG

New Japan Pro-Wrestling has announced the card for the April 30 episode of NJPW STRONG.

Mascara Dorada will take on TJP, and Ren Narita will face Jay Lethal. Plus, Kevin Knight will battle The DKC.

The card is as follows:

  • Mascara Dorada vs. TJP
  • Ren Narita vs. Jay Lethal
  • Kevin Knight vs. The DKC

The official preview, courtesy of the NJPW website, is as follows:

Ren Narita faces AEW’s Jay Lethal in the main event. Narita’s 2022 started opposite Katsuyori Shibata in the Tokyo Dome, and with Josh Barnett and Buddy Matthews following, the LA Dojo transplant has been put to the ultimate test all the way through the year up to this point. Against the highly skilled veteran Lethal, another extremely difficult challenge for Narita; could it be an extremely impressive victory?

Two of the world’s premier junior heavyweights collide in the second match of the night, as Mascara Dorada faces TJP. While both were in WWE, Dorada earned a 3-1 record over TJP, but United Empire’s Public Enemy has rediscovered his aggressive side ever since joining the United Empire. As the Public Enemy and Dorada are reunited, CMLL’s masked master of the ropes wants to make a big first impression as he returns to NJPW after a six year absence. Can he score a key win tonight and maintain his advantage over TJP?

Young Lion competition is picking up around the world of late. In Japan, Yuto Nakashima, Kosei Fujita and Ryohei Oiwa have all picked up their first ever wins over the last week, but as they continue their own training, Kevin Knight and the DKC are keen not to be overlooked. These two have already impressed as a tag team, and picked up wins over more experienced competition, but neither has a clear advantage over the other one on one, with them tied at one win apiece. Who picks up the win this week on STRONG?
