All Japan Pro-Wrestling star Suwama has gotten the match he wanted with DDT Pro-Wrestling legend Jun Akiyama.
The issue Suwama currently has with former AJPW president Jun Akiyama is Akiyama had agreed to wrestle in a Explosion Death Match on September 9th despite speaking out against such matches for many years. Back in 2017, Suwama was scheduled to participate in an Explosion Death Match but then AJPW president and Suwama’s boss Jun Akiyama objected fiercely which created anger in both stars.
On August 13th, Suwama, Dan Tamura and Hikaru Sato AKA Evolution invaded a DDT Pro-Wrestling event and confronted Jun Akiyama. Suwama and Akiyama had a heated verbal confrontation which led to Suwama challenging Akiyama to come to AJPW to face him.
The match was made official today as Suwama, Dan Tamura and Hikaru Sato will face Jun Akiyama, Sanshiro Takagi an Yusuke Okada in a AJPW vs DDT Pro encounter.
The match is scheduled for AJPW September 9th show at Yoyogi National Gymnasium.
