AEW’s Konosuke Takeshita will be stepping through the forbidden door to compete for All Japan Pro Wrestling at an event later this month.
Takeshita will be at AJPW’s event on January 27 in Hachioji, Japan. At the event, he will team up with Hideki Okatani to take on the duo of Yuma Aoyagi and Atsuki Aoyagi.
This will mark Takeshita’s first match for AJPW since 2016. More recently, the promotion welcomed WWE’s Charlie Dempsey, who challenged for the Triple Crown Championship.
Takeshita’s most recent AEW match saw him on the losing end of an eight-man tag-team match at last week’s Worlds End 2023 pay-per-view event.
