AJPW World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kenny Omega (c) Vs Kaz Hayashi

Kenny Omega has a big name in place for his third defence of the AJPW Jr. Heavyweight Title next month. In fact it is the man who holds the most successful Jr. Title reign in All Japan history, Kaz Hayashi! Both champion and challenger met at a press conference where the match was announced for the 2nd February event in Korakuen Hall. Omega was accompanied by Michael Nakazawa but was able to spend a lot of time speaking in Japanese by himself. Kenny explained that Nakazawa was there to make sure no one was taking advantage of him as champion and to protect him from any unprofessional behaviour by the All Japan wrestlers. Kenny also tried to rile up Hayashi by saying the people in charge of All Japan love him because he is a “cool champion”. So much so that Kenny believes they secretly want him to beat Kaz.

“Everybody wants a cool champion,” says Kenny. “Let’s just look at the matches in general. Everyone has to agree that my matches… are always, ALWAYS, not sometimes, the best match not just in All Japan. These are the best Junior matches in all of Japan.”

Some big claims by Omega and he’s ready to back them up when he faces Hayashi next month.
