Miyu Yamashita Comments On IMPACT x NJPW Multiverse United Match

Miyu Yamashita will finally get her wish.

She’s outright stated numerous times wanting to come and wrestle the IMPACT Knockouts, and now she’ll also get a chance to fight for the Knockouts Title.

“There have been many matches announced for my excursion, but the IMPACT match is very special because I have always wanted to wrestle in IMPACT. Having this happen so early in my excursion, it’s a special four way match. Gisele Shaw, who I’ve fought before, Mickie James, the current champion, and Deonna Purrazzo, a former champion. It’s a huge four-way and it could be dangerous. What to expect? Only one way to find out,” Yamashita told Fightful’s Scott Edwards.

Miyu is a regular with Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling and the current EVE champion. She’s also slated to wrestle Killer Kelly in her debut match with IMPACT, airing tonight before the Multiverse show.

The winner of this match will move on to Rebellion to take on Jordynne Grace – and possibly Mickie James if she’s healed up by then – for the IMPACT Knockouts Title.
