Kosei Fujita Looks to Be the Youngest BOSJ Winner This Year

By: R. Faliani

With Will Ospreay outside of New Japan Pro Wrestling, all the records set by Ospreay in the company must be surpassed. Kosei Fujita’s campaign in the Best of the Super Juniors is looking to set the record straight and give TMDK a fantastic achievement to their resume in building one of many potential BOSJ winners. Fujita started the tournament with the right step and a victory over “Heel Master” Yoshinobu Kanemaru.

If Fujita were to win the BOSJ he would beat Ospreay’s record as the youngest wrestler to win the BOSJ tournament. In a tournament built with the best Junior wrestlers in the world and even many that came back after years of not wrestling on Japanese soil, Fujita has the chance to pull up and run through the competition in unique TMDK fashion.
