All signs point to Hiroshi Tanahashi replacing the injured Will Ospreay at the upcoming Impact x NJPW Multiverse United show on Thursday, March 30.
Ospreay is slated to wrestle to face Impact’s Mike Bailey. However, Ospreay suffered a shoulder injury earlier this month and has pulled out of recent NJPW events.
During today’s NJPW New Japan Cup Final event, Tanahashi said he would step up as a ‘pinch hitter’ and be a substitute for Ospreay. It should be noted that an official announcement has yet to be made.
棚橋「3月30日(現地時間)、新日本プロレスとIMPACT! 合同大会があって。経緯を話すと…オスプレイが、ケガがあると。そこにこの切り札が……代打の切り札が、馳せ参じます。俺を選んだことを、後悔するよ。俺が一番の、インパクトを残してやる」
