DPW begins the Japan Tour... without Corey O'Brian?

DPW's first leg of the Japan Tour has been announced, in the legendary Yokohama Arena. DPW founder October Raven expects to fill all 17,000 seats.

One person who people have been wondering if he will be there is Corey O'Brian. The wrestler has undergone an emergency neck surgery. Corey says he will be wrestling again, however, not in Yokohama. Corey will still be there, however. Being fluent in Japanese, he will serve as a translator for the non-Japanese speaking members of DPW as they do press conferences and interviews until he is able to perform in the ring.

DPW also says they are working on bringing in new talent to perform in the Japan Tour, however no names have been confirmed and will not be in Yokohama.

The card for the Yokohama event is as follows:

DPW Japan Tour: Yokohama
Jin Haisha vs Kevin Williams
Genocide vs Socks O'Brian
REIKA vs Chris DaMico
Mike Blood vs Raiku Daisatsu
Shinokumo vs Frank Desmond
Team Handsome Tokyo (Jintaro Mazaki and Yoshiro Tenmaku) vs Hotaka Tokudo & Masashi Togashi
DPW World Heavyweight Championship- Thomas Clarke vs Monster Takeshi(c)


This is Thomas Clarke's first championship match outside of England. He is said to be thrilled with the oppurtunity. When asked how he planned to fight Takeshi, he was going to use the advantage of leverage and hit him with the London Bomber when he least expects it. Takeshi says that Clarke may be different from his other opponents, but he will end the same way as the rest: Pinned.

Will Clarke be the first to slay the Monster? Will Takeshi continue to run roughshod over the DPW roster? Find out when DPW's Japan Tour begins, very soon!
