STERNESS invade World Japan!

Akiyama's STERNESS excursion made their first appearance yesterday as they appeared after the main event at Riki Choshu's World Japan show. Choshu & Tomohiro Ishii had just won a tag match when suddenly Akiyama, Kanemaru, Izumuda & Hashi came out to confront Choshu. Akiyama said he lowered his standards so much that he picked a has-been promotion like WJ to start his STERNESS rebirth. And he intended to start by taking down one of the biggest names in Japanese wrestling, Riki Choshu! Akiyama then issued the challange for a series of STERNESS VS WJ matches at this weekends WJ show at the Differ Ariake, and when Choshu accepted, STERNESS immediately attacked Choshu & Ishii and cleared the ring of them to a mixed reaction from the crowd! On the heels of that incident, the card for this Saturday's World Japan show was announced today: World Japan "VS STERNESS" – 1/15/2005 Differ Ariake Tetsuhiro Kuroda VS Takashi Uwano Minoru Fujita & Dick Togo VS Jinsei Shinzaki & MIKAMI WMG Tag Titles: KRONIK VS Takao Omori & Shiro Koshinaka World Japan VS STERNESS: Kuniyoshi Wada VS Makoto Hashi World Japan VS STERNESS: WMG Heavyweight Title: Steve Williams VS Jun Izumuda World Japan VS STERNESS: Riki Choshu & Tomohiro Ishii VS Jun Akiyama & Yoshinobu Kanemaru
