Hikuleo and Juice Robinson are set to do battle yet again.
On the September 18 episode of New Japan Pro Wrestling Strong, Hikuleo defeated Juice Robinson in a tables match. The two have been at odds for a number of months now, facing off on NJPW programming and on IMPACT. Just last week, Hikuleo teamed up with fellow Bullet Club member Chris Bey to beat FinJuice.
The promotion has now shared that the two men will face off on September 26th on Night Two of NJPW Autumn Attack in a Texas Bullrope match.
From NJPW:
This week on NJPW STRONG, Hikuleo and Juice Robinson’s violent feud continued with a brutal tables match to headline night one of Fighting Spirit Unleashed. Ultimately, despite crashing through a table himself earlier in the bout, BULLET CLUB’s Young Gun was able to be the one to drive his opponent through the furniture with an offensive maneuver, granting him victory, and evening the scoreline with Robinson after juice pinned him at Resurgence.
Yet neither Robinson nor Hikuleo are letting this issue rest. Both wanting a definitive rubber match, they will collide at STRONG tapings Sunday September 26 in Dallas/Ft.Worth Texas, and in a Texas Bullrope Match. Will this become the most violent battle in NJPW STRONG history? Witness the bout live and in person before it airs on STRONG by getting your tickets to the Curtis Culwell Center now!
The full lineup for the weekend can be seen below. Fightful will keep you posted should anything else be announced.
