Jon Moxley unable to compete at Sumo Hall, US Championship vacated

Jon Moxley unable to make scheduled defence; Lance Archer and Juice Robinson to compete for vacant title

Due to travel delays as a result of this weekend’s Typhoon Hagibis, we regret to announce that Jon Moxley will be unable to appear at Ryogoku Sumo Hall for King of Pro Wrestling on Monday October 14. 

As Moxley is unable to wrestle in a scheduled championship defence, he has relinquished the IWGP United States Championship. 

In place of the scheduled Jon Moxley versus Juice Robinson No Disqualification match tonight for the United States Championship, a match will be contested for the now vacant title. 

Card change details:

IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship No DQ Match

Jon Moxley (champion) vs Juice Robinson (challenger)

IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship

Lance Archer vs Juice Robinson

The winner will be crowned the seventh IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion

We sincerely apologize to fans looking forward to seeing Moxley wrestle, and appreciate your understanding.
