NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 20’s seating configuration sells out, more to be added
NJPW has sold out its current configuration of seats for Wrestle Kingdom 20.
The company announced on Sunday morning that although they are sold out seven weeks ahead of their annual January 4 show at the Tokyo Dome, more tickets will be available for purchase.
“THANK YOU!,” they wrote on social media. We have SOLD OUT our configuration for Wrestle Kingdom 20 in the Tokyo Dome, seven weeks in advance! Extra seating will be opened in the coming days, you can still have a chance of making it!”
Next year’s Tokyo Dome event has become a big seller thanks in part to Hiroshi Tanahashi’s upcoming retirement match, which will take place on January 4. His opponent will be none other than longtime rival Kazuchika Okada, who made his first appearance in NJPW in over a year last weekend to officially throw out the challenge.
Here is the current lineup for Wrestle Kingdom 20:
