Tomohiro Ishii To Defend RPW British Heavyweight Title Against Minoru Suzuki At NJPW Power Struggle

Another title bout as been added to NJPW Power Struggle on Nov. 3.

NJPW announced that Tomohiro Ishii will defend his Revolution Pro Wrestling British Heavyweight Title against Minoru Suzuki at Power Struggle.

This match will be a rematch of the RPW “Global Wars UK” tournament / British Heavyweight championship match held on October 14th, in London. Ishii, after a fierce fight against the champion Suzuki, finally won with a Vertical Brainbuster and took back the British heavyweight title.

Following a spirited match in Hiroshima on October 19th, (Tomohiro Ishii and Toru Yano vs Minoru Suzuki & TAKA Michinoku), Ishii provoked Suzuki by posing with the British heavyweight belt, causing a huge brawl to erupt.

A furious Suzuki said backstage; “Ishii! Oi, Ishii! That thing in your right hand, it’s mine! It’s mine! Return it immediately, you bastard!”

With tension ratcheting-up over the British heavyweight championship, will things finally boil-over in Osaka?

NJPW Power Struggle is set to take place on Nov. 3 from Osaka, Japan. Chris Jericho against EVIL for the IWGP Intercontinental Title headlines the event. The show will air live on NJPW World. Fightful will provide live coverage of the event.
