Goto last competed at NJPW Tanahashi Jam, losing the IWGP World Heavyweight Title to Zack Sabre Jr. He was then sidelined with an elbow injury, which forced him to withdraw from the G1 Climax.

During his time away from the ring, Goto was announced as a cast member for the upcoming “Street Fighter” film. He joins Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns in the film.

Fightful will provide more details on Goto’s return when they are known.
