Santino Marella has been booked for the show as well. He'll face "The Gracie Hunter" Kazushi Sakuraba. This will be Marella's first show in Japan since doing a couple of dates with DDT in 2019. 

Stardom's Konami vs. GLEAT's Maya Fukuda has also been scheduled for the show. 

Olympic wrestler Davit Modzmanashvili had previously been advertised for the event. However, it was revealed in today's announcement that he is no longer participating in the show.
