Various: Hideo Itami Returning to NOAH, All PWG BOLA Participants

Hideo Itami Returning to Pro Wrestling NOAH

Hideo Itami will wrestle in Pro Wrestling NOAH again later this year as part of an apparent partnership between WWE and NOAH.

Itami, who became a superstar in NOAH as KENTA, will be wrestling Naomichi Marufuji in Tokyo on September 1.

It was previously reported by Dave Meltzer that WWE and NOAH may be entering an unspecified “agreement” and Itami wrestling this match is apparently part of that.
