In case you didn't know...

WWE hosts live events known as house shows in various different countries to maintain a connection with their global audience.

Triple H last wrestled at Super Showdown in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia last Saturday against Randy Orton in a one-on-one falls match. The match was generally criticized for being too slow paced and long.

The heart of the matter

WWE Japan released a video on their official Youtube channel confirming that Triple H is going to a part of the live event in Tokyo on June 28 this year. His opponent has not yet been revealed, but it will be interesting to know who is he going to wrestle against.

The Cerebral Assassin doesn't wrestle in many house shows since taking a role as Executive Vice-president in the company. So, his inclusion shows that the show is going to be a huge affair and WWE wants to maintain a good relationship with their Japanese fan base.
