The “King of Pro-Wrestling”, Minoru Suzuki is a name that strikes respect and fear deep in the heart of competitors and fans alike.
After initially training in the NJPW Dojo, Suzuki joined the UWF group in 1989, before becoming one of the founding fathers of Japanese MMA. Returning to pro-wrestling in 2003, Suzuki picked up gold wherever he went, including IWGP Tag Team, NEVER Openweight, and IWGP Intercontinental gold in NJPW.
With over 30 years of career expereince, Suzuki shows no signs of slowing down, and seems to only get more terrifying with every year that goes by. Now Suzuki looks to fight MLW’s best.
League officials expect to announce his opponent shortly.
MLW can confirm a LIMITED meet & greet will also take place prior to the start of the show. More details will be revealed in the weeks ahead.

Powell’s POV: A good get for MLW as part of their new working relationship with NJPW. On a side note, it’s interesting that Alex Hammerstone’s name is not among the advertised wrestlers for the Slaughterhouse event.
