All-Japan News: Possible Title Vacancy Coming

All-Japan posted a comment today from wrestling legend Dory Funk Jr., who also serves as head of the Pacific Wrestling Federation (PWF), one of the governing bodies of All-Japan. His comments suggest the All-Asia Tag Team Championship could/should be vacated soon because of an Atsushi Onita injury. Reportedly an abdominal acute aneurysm that will require emergency surgery. While mot a mandate yet, he is urging Onita & Yoshitatsu to vacate the titles as a result and for Onita to focus on his health. Should they do this and Onita os eventually able to return, Funk is open to them challenging for the titles soon after, even in an Onita-style signature deathmatch.

More as it becomes available. It should be emphasized the titles have not been vacated yet or stripped from Onita & Yoshitatsu. This is just a request from Funk and not a demand/mandate at this time.
