Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI cancel weekend indie appearance
Los Tranquilos de Japon will not be making their scheduled indie appearance in Germany this weekend.
Tetsuya Naito & BUSHI were supposed to compete for wXw in Limbach-Oberfrohna this Saturday (November 15) on the promotion’s 25th anniversary tour. But wXw announced that, on short notice, Naito & BUSHI have had to cancel their appearance. Those who purchased meet and greets with Naito & BUSHI will have that money refunded, and wXw said the promotion still plans on giving fans a great show.
wXw’s statement regarding the cancellation said the deal for Naito & BUSHI to work the event was identical to the one they made when Los Traquilos de Japon wrestled for the promotion back in September. There were also plans for further collaborations between wXw and Naito & BUSHI, though the statement does not say if those will still be going ahead.
In their own statement, Naito & BUSHI apologized for the cancellation and said it was due to unavoidable circumstances.

“We deeply regret that due to certain unfortunate circumstances, we have decided to cancel our appearance,” Los Tranquilos de Japon wrote. “We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and concern this has caused to all parties involved.”
Naito & BUSHI have competed in a limited number of dates globally since departing NJPW in May. They were part of Los Ingobernables de Japon in NJPW, with Naito being one of the top stars in the company. He and BUSHI have now rebranded to using Los Tranquilos de Japon as their team name. The two had been hoping to work a United States tour earlier this year, but that could not happen because of issues obtaining a work visa.
