2022.0217_Announce0119-01_USJAY.jpg

The main event tonight sees the third match in Jay White’s U-S-of-Jay Open Challenge series. After facing Christopher Daniels and Jay Lethal of AEW, White has hinted his next opponent would be a hot free agent. Just who will step through the curtain? Find out this week on STRONG!

2nd Match: Ariya Daivari vs Kevin Blackwood

Kevin Blackwood makes his NJPW STRONG debut this week when he faces Ariya Daivari. Daivari has been wrestling not just with his opponents, but himself over recent weeks, as he tries to turn over a new leaf. The Persian Lion wants badly to compete with honesty and integrity in the cerulean blue, but recent frustrations have lef to temptations for Daivari, who has come close to losing his battle with inner demons who want him to turn toward dirtier tactics. Will a win reaffirm his choice to stay on the straight and narrow tonight?

1st match: Kevin Knight vs Hikuleo

Kicking off the night, Hikuleo will be taking on the LA Dojo’s Kevin Knight. Knight has made incredible strides of late, and has been able to match his undeniable athleticism with an increasing wrestling IQ. In the face of the undeniable power of Hikuleo though, can Knight survive?​

Inner conflict Ariya Daivari angle is so basic but it's been working really well for the few matches he's had so far

Really hammed out that inner conflict angle for the finish after I complimented it :bosque shit made no sense bc if he used the chair he just woulda been DQ'd....when it's about him cheating to win
