New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) has officially announced its lineup for the upcoming Resurgence event on Saturday, May 11, in Ontario, California. The event is set to feature a series of high-stakes matches headlined by the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship defense. Jon Moxley, who recently secured the title from Tetsuya Naito at Windy City Riot, is scheduled to defend against Ren Narita at Wrestling Dontaku in Japan. The winner will face Shota Umino at Resurgence.

In addition to the world title match, the NJPW Strong Openweight title will be on the line in a unique No Ropes Last Man Standing match, with Eddie Kingston defending his title against Gabe Kidd. This match is expected to be a highlight of the event, given its unconventional setup and the intense rivalry between the competitors.

The tag team scene will also be vibrant, featuring a match between LIJ’s Tetsuya Naito & Yota Tsuji and Bullet Club’s KENTA & David Finlay, marking Tsuji’s U.S. debut.

Another notable tag team match involves “Filthy” Tom Lawlor and Fred Rosser, who will face the West Coast Wrecking Crew’s Jorel Nelson & Royce Isaacs. This follows the recent split of Team Filthy at Windy City Riot, adding personal stakes to the bout.

Additionally, Matt Vandagriff will go up against Adrian Quest in a Strong Survivor match, rounding out a robust card for the night.

The full lineup promises an exciting evening for wrestling fans, with the event set to broadcast live as a pay-per-view on NJPW World at 9:30 p.m. Eastern time.
