NJPW Royal Quest II Won't Air Live
No way to watch Royal Quest live without being there
New Japan Pro-Wrestling are set to return to the United Kingdom this week with Royal Quest II shows from London, England on Saturday, October 1 and Sunday, October 2.
Fans not in attendance will be unable to watch the event live, however, it has been revealed. FITE confirmed to John Pollock of POST Wrestling that Royal Quest will not air on the streaming platform. Instead, the events will be available on New Japan World at some point in October
"Fite TV confirmed to me that they will not be airing New Japan's Royal Quest events this weekend. New Japan states the shows will be airing on demand in October on New Japan World, but won't be streaming live," Pollock tweeted.
Why NJPW will not stream the shows live is unknown. The events are set to feature multiple major matches, including FTR's first IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Title defence against Aussie Open on night one, and Tetsuya Naito vs. Zack Sabre Jr. for a shot at the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship in the main event of night two.
