Top British Star Signs For NOAH

It’s been a big day for British-based wrestlers in Japan. Earlier on at New Japan’s Wrestling Dontaku Night 2, Canadian El Phantasmo – who has made a name for himself on the UK circuit in promotions such as RevPro, Defiant and FCP – made his debut for the company as the newest member of Bullet Club, scoring a huge opening night win over Will Ospreay.

Elsewhere over in Pro Wrestling NOAH, hard-hitting Liverpudlian Chris Ridgeway was announced as a competitor in the promotion’s Jr. Tag League, which starts on May 28.

NOAH bound.
Life goal.
Unreal.
