Ahead of Jon Moxley's Wrestle Kingdom debut at the Tokyo Dome tonight, his wife and current WWE Backstage personality, Renee Young, has traveled to Japan and will be in attendance at WK 14 ahead of Mox's highly awaited IWGP US Championship match.
Jon Moxley to challenge for the IWGP US Championship
In his first-ever Wrestle Kingdom event, Jon Moxley will be challenging another former WWE Superstar and new champion, Lance Archer for the IWGP United States Championship.
With Moxley vacating the title due to traveling issues, Archer won the championship at the King of Pro Wrestling event last year, and in the finals of the World Tag League, Moxley made his return to Japan and laid out the Texas Deathmatch Challenge.
