The IWGP World Championship will be defended on Wednesday.
For the first time on Dynamite, the IWGP World Championship will be on the line as Jon Moxley will defend against Powerhouse Hobbs. Don Callis revealed on Collision that made phone calls to Japan and as a result, turned their singles match on Dynamite into a title match.
The start of Rampage saw Moxley applaud Callis for making the move. He said he didn’t mind that the match was now for his title, as he never planned on losing. He always knew Hobbs had something special, but if Hobbs didn’t find it on Wednesday, he’s going to learn a bitter lesson.
Moxley won the title last Friday, pinning Tetsuya Naito at NJPW Windy City Riot in Chicago. He attempted to call out Shota Umino after his title win, but Ren Narita came out to attack him. Moxley will now defend the title against Narita at Wrestling Dontaku on May 4. The winner of that match will defend against Umino on May 11.
