Taka Michinoku To Compete In First US Match Since 2019
Taka Michinoku will make a rare appearance in the United States, challenging Kevin Ku for the BLP Championship at BLP at Squared Circle Expo IV on March 27.
This will be Taka’s first match in the United States since 2019 when he faced Orange Cassidy at Joey Janela’s Spring Break.
On January 29, Taka wrote on social media, “I’m going to Indianapolis on March 27th and 28th. If I go all the way to US, I’d like to wrestle around that time. I went to England and Australia in the last few years, but it’s been seven years since I went to the U.S. Please make an offer to DM.”
BLP answered the call.
