Former WWE and NXT Superstar Hideo Itami returned to New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) at the NJPW Dominion 2019 event on Saturday night.
Itami returned as KENTA during a segment on the broadcast on late Saturday evening / early Sunday morning at Osaka-jo Hall in Japan.
From F4WOnline.com correspondent @EthanRenner:
“Katsuyori Shibata came out. He pointed to the entrance stage, and out came KENTA. He wore a t-shirt with “Takeover” printed on the front. KENTA introduced himself to the crowd, and announced that he also plans to be in the G1.”
