The company will run Supershow events at Ryōgoku Sumo Hall in Tokyo on Friday, October 17, and Saturday, October 18. Bouts for the shows were revealed during the Japanese broadcast of WWE SmackDown on ABEMA.
Former multi-time champion Shinsuke Nakamura is set to make his in-ring return on the tour.

He’ll be back in action on night one, teaming with Jey Uso to take on Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker.
