NJPW has released an updated card for next week’s Bound for Unbound event, teasing a potential bout in which Gedo will take on a yet-to-be-named opponent. According to the promotion, Gedo has reached out to a specific wrestler he has never managed to defeat in a one-on-one match.
The announcement stated: “Gedo will take on a mystery opponent at Bound For Unbound… possibly. Gedo has stated that he’s put an offer out to a specific opponent, a man he’s never beaten one-on-one before. Yet that covers a lot of ground, and whoever it is that Bloody Hands wants to face has yet to accept the offer. Should the mystery man say yes, this match will be officially announced, but if not, Gedo only has one opponent in mind, and this match won’t be taking place. So for now, just a preliminary announcement? We’ll see what happens Friday.”
Bound for Unbound will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan, on Friday, November 20. The event will be available to stream live on pay-per-view via NJPW World, with an English-language on-demand version to follow. The current lineup is as follows:
* Yota Tsuji vs. Ares
* Drilla Moloney vs. Daiki Nagai
* Natsupoi & Shingo Takagi vs. Chihiro Hashimoto & Jeff Cobb
* Robbie X vs. Dragon Lee
* OSKAR vs. Lance Archer
* Yuto-Ice vs. Fuminori Abe
* Gedo vs. X
