During the Kizuna Road show this morning, New Japan Pro Wrestling announced the line up for this summers G1 Climax. The line-up is fairly predictable, but Kota Ibushi wrestling as himself instead of Tiger Mask W is a welcome surprise, as is Zack Sabre Jr. who is normally seen as a junior heavyweight. The tournament is running from July 17th up to August 13th with the winner going on to WrestleKingdom on January 4th to compete for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. All of this can be seen on NJPW World and the full line-up for the tournament is below.
