DDT has just announced that former Tokyo Joshi Pro wrestler Reika Saiki, one of their top stars in the promotion’s early days, will return next weekend as a special guest commentator for the WRESTLE UNIVERSE broadcast of WRESTLE PRINCESS 3 on 10/9. Saiki, an original member of Up Up Girls and a former Princess Of Princess Champion and Tokyo Princess Cup winner, retired in May after facing Arisu Endo in an exhibition match in her final match. She is now an actress. Saiki will join regular commentators Haruo Murata & Kagehiro Osano in the Japanese broadcast. English commentary will also be available for the event, with DDT star Chris Brookes & Baliyan Akki on commentary.
The event will be held on 10/9 at Tokyo Dome City Hall in Tokyo, with the WRESTLE UNIVERSE broadcast beginning next Saturday (10/8) at 10 PM PT/1 AM ET.
