Willow Nightingale to make Japan debut for TJPW this month
After it was originally delayed due to visa issues, Willow Nightingale is finally set to make her Japan debut.
Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling has announced that Nightingale will be in action at their shows in Japan on Saturday, October 29 and Sunday, November 6. Nightingale was supposed to debut for the promotion this July, but that couldn’t happen due to visa processes taking longer than expected.
TJPW noted in July that it would do its best to have Nightingale come to the promotion in the near future.
Nightingale tweeted on Friday: “So excited to FINALLY make my Japanese debut with none other than @tjpw2013 [heart emoji]”

Nightingale is a regular for AEW, though it’s yet to be confirmed if she’s signed an AEW contract. She unsuccessfully challenged Jade Cargill for the TBS Championship at Battle of the Belts IV on October 7.
Nightingale has also been involved with ROH both before and after the promotion was purchased by Tony Khan.
