Injury Report: Le Pain

While DDT wrestler Kazuma Sumi made a successful first journey to France recently and successfully defended the DDT Universal Championship in a 3-way there, it came at a cost-it was revealed today that he was injured while over there. Right eye (fractured orbital area). Out at least 4 weeks. The earliest he will be able to return right now is 6/28 which is the next Korakuen Hall event. No next title defense had been announced so he shouldn’t have to vacate the title unless he can’t return for some time.

More as it becomes available.
