One day later and we now have a complete Tokyo Dome card, jam packed with ten matches in an all-star like event. New Japan Pro-Wrestling vs. Pro Wrestling NOAH resumes at the Tokyo Dome with two matches announced today. The dream confrontation of Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Mitsuharu Misawa takes center stage in the series, but not as a singles match - yet. Nakamura teams with RISE second-in-command Hirooki Goto against Misawa and Takashi Sugiura. The other match is between former amaresu greats Nakanishi and Jun Akiyama, who is the GHC Heavyweight Title #1 contender after recently submitting Takeshi Morishima. Should Nakanishi win, he may invade the “Ark” and challenge old nemesis Kensuke Sasaki. Choshu, Chono, Nagata, Tanahashi, Nakamura, Muto, Misawa, Akiyama, TenKoji, Angle, Nash, Mistico, Team 3D - the “Japanese Wrestlemania” has a cast befitting of its billing.
