The next event is Saturday at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring in Tokyo. The event is already a legit advance sellout. Live streaming on AJPW.TV will begin Friday at 7 PM PT/10 PM ET.
UPDATE: Next up for Ayabe/Talos: The Odd Couple aka Hideki Suzuki & Suwama. That match will happen on 2/23 at Ota City General Gym in Tokyo.
UPDATE 2: In a post on social media earlier today (2/2), Kumaarashi announced he is leaving the Hokuto Army faction. So that leaves it as Omori and-when they show up-Cyrus and, I think, Takashi. A Kumaarashi-Omori match is now set for Saturday.
