Tsuji still needs his 1v1 with Naito before he goes! At least he got to face Tanahashi. Glad Uemura was able to face Suzuki too.

I've seen some new Young Lions at ringside recently as well, hopefully they start having some matches and be able to work with Tsuji & Uemura before they go. Perhaps a Young Lions Cup tournament to send them off (with the new young lions, and maybe even Gabriel Kidd, Kevin Knight, and DKC if they're able to travel overseas soon)

I remember Yuto Nakashima made his debut but got injured literally 10 seconds into his match against Uemura. That was incredibly unfortunate, but hope his recovery is going ok and he'll be able to step in the ring again.

...I love the whole Young Lion concept haha. I'm stoked we get to see Shota Umino return in November too at the Los Angeles show. He's been MIA the past year since RevPro has been on hiatus.

If he doesn't get the match then we'll know who's going to be his first rival when he comes back.

Never been an announcement, just Tsuji saying he wants to go there a lot

Its definitely unique seeing a buff dude like Tsuji being able to pull off these technical crafty lucha-style rollup attempts. Even pulled off a victory against Uemura once with one.

Tsuji would make a great fit in LIJ since they're in need of some heavy muscle, since EVIL betrayed them.

if any young lions have never needed an excursion - it’s these two

dead serious
