NJPW returning to United Kingdom for Royal Quest II
For the first time in three years, NJPW is heading back to the United Kingdom.
NJPW has announced that it will make its return to the UK with Royal Quest II taking place in London on Saturday, October 1 and Sunday, October 2. The two-night event will be held at The Indoor Arena at Crystal Palace’s National Sports Center.
“In the three years since NJPW hit the Copper Box for Royal Quest in August 2019, New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s return to the UK has been one of the most common requests among fans,” NJPW wrote.
“New Japan Pro-Wrestling is excited to announce that Royal Quest II will see NJPW finally make its UK return, across TWO DAYS in London October 1 & 2. The Indoor Arena at Crystal Palace’s National Sports Center in London will play host to the best of NJPW’s worldwide talent, and we hope to welcome the best fans in the world!”
NJPW has opened up a mailing list for fans interested in ticket information. Those who sign up will also receive access to a ticket pre-sale.
The first Royal Quest was a pay-per-view that aired live via Fite TV. The PPV was headlined by Kazuchika Okada defeating Minoru Suzuki.
