WWE News: Huge WWE Title Match Confirmed for Live Event in Japan

WWE will come back to Japan for house shows this summer. It is for the first time in several months they will be doing shows in the eastern region.

We gave updates previously mentioning Ronda Rousey will be performing on this tour. It is going to be the first-time ever that the mainstream name will join the live event in Japan.

The current reports suggest there would be two separate tours in Japan from Raw and Smackdown Live. The one where Ronda Rousey will perform will be the one hosted by the flagship show.

This will take place when the Summerslam PPV event is over. The current schedule shows that the event will take place at the Edison Arena in Osaka, Japan on August 31st.

But before this mentioned event, there will be a couple of Smackdown house shows in Japan. The fans will be happy to learn that they can witness superstars, live-in-action starting from tonight. WWE stars from the blue brand arrived in their country last night to perform in ‘the land of rising sun.’

The current listing of the event suggests a huge WWE Championship match will be in-store for Japan fans. The show is suggesting that four prime names from the Smackdown brand will compete in it.

Daniel Bryan, Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura and AJ Styles will compete in it. It is going to be a fatal-4-way match under No Disqualification rules.

AJ Styles is the current WWE Champion. So, the event is portraying him as the title-holder while selling tickets. But, the scenario can change at the Extreme Rules PPV event. The title might change hands at the upcoming PPV show where Rusev would challenge Styles. These Smackdown exclusive house shows in Japan will take place at the Ryogoku Kokugikan for the next couple of days.
