A major match has been announced for NJPW Windy City Riot.
At NJPW Battle in the Valley on January 13, Jon Moxley battled Shingo Takagi. The two stars waged war in a violent match. By the end of the bout, both men were bleeding profusely, and they had put each other through a table. Moxley ultimately scored the victory with a Death Rider onto a table.
The former AEW World Champion grabbed a microphone after the bell. He stated that he had one name in his sights, and that was Tetsuya Naito. Moxley briefly noted that the time had come for them to face off.
