Full Match Line-Up For Pro Wrestling NOAH NEW DEPARTURE Day 1 (7/19)

By: Lewis Carlan

The GHC Heavyweight Champion OZAWA is set to make his seventh title defense in mere hours as he faces the challenge of long time Pro Wrestling NOAH superstar KENOH.

The July 19th NEW DEPARTURE Day 1 event is scheduled for the historic Korakuen Hall and NOAH made the announcement today that show is now officially sold out.

KENOH will arguably be the toughest challenger to date for OZAWA as the NOAH mainstay will be looking to enter his fourth reign as the GHC Heavyweight Champion. The two have faced each other in a number of preliminary matches over the last few weeks with each trying to gain the upper hand.

OZAWA and KENOH have engaged in a war of words on social media as they attempt to gain the mental advantage over the other. The time for talk is over as the two superstars head into their highly anticipated singles championship showdown on July 19th.

There is one other title match on the card as YO-HEY defends his GHC Jr Heavyweight Championship against former five time champion HAYATA.
