* Look out Tiger Mask! The latest version of Black Tiger stormed to victory in the second ROAD TO THE SUPER JR. 2DAYS TOURNAMENT, earning himself a place in this year’s Super Jr. tournament. He defeated Madoka who has been unlucky enough to lose two finals in two years and miss out on the Super Jr. tournament twice. Black Tiger appears to have aligned himself with Suzuki Gun as he was photographed with TAKA and Taichi in a Suzuki Gun t-shirt. He spoke in Japanese and is apparently a personal friend of Suzuki.

For the second year running, New Japan’s NEVER brand will host a small tournament that gives a young junior the chance to qualify for the Best of the Super Jr. tournament. Last year 16 men competed for two spots but this year 8 men compete for 1 spot, with New Japan young lions Takaaki Watanabe and Hiromu Takahashi being joined by various other young juniors in the two night tournament. The most intriguing entrant is “Black Tiger”, who will be under the mask this time?

Former IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, Low Ki, is on his way back to New Japan! The 55th generation champion made a brief return last May on the USA tour when he challenged Devitt for the belt in New York, and the loss there has been gnawing at Ki, who has his eyes fixed on Devitt and the prestigious IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title.
