After the match, many junior heavyweight wrestlers stormed the ring and made their claim for the GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship. Kotoge couldn\u2019t decide on a challenger, so he opted to hold a Junior Rumble with the winner facing him on June 27. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The lineup was announced, then things got interesting. There were several juniors missing, and a wildcard was added at the <strong><em>Mitsuharu Misawa Memorial 2021<\/em><\/strong> show. NOSAWA Rongai and Ikuto Hidaka brought in <strong>Dragon Gate<\/strong>\u2019s and <strong>R.E.D.<\/strong>\u2019s leader, <strong>Eita<\/strong>. He pinned Yuya Susumu and announced his intention to join the rumble. It\u2019s hard to see what will happen here; many say Eita is the favorite, but Junta Miyawaki is a wild card to watch out for.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Steel Cage Hair vs Hair Match: Katsuhiko Nakajima vs Masa Kitamiya <\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The story of Masa Kitamiya and Katsuhiko Nakajima started back at the Kensuke Office. Kitamiya was applying to be a wrestler and one of the people watching his audition was Katsuhiko Nakajima. They teamed up regularly over the years, most recently in <strong>Kongo<\/strong>. They would win the GHC Tag Team Championship. After a successful defense against Taniguchi and Yone, Kitamiya dropped Nakajima with a Saito Suplex.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Kitamiya cited him being kicked by Nakajima as his reason, and that he has always hated Nakajima. Kitamiya left Kongo after thanking <strong>Kenoh<\/strong>. Kitamiya and Nakajima had a press conference where they refused to give up the tag belts. Then, Kitamiya said they needed to settle matters with a Steel Cage Match. That wasn&#8217;t all, however &#8211; it needed to be a Hair vs. Hair contest as well. <strong>Bull Nakano<\/strong> will be on commentary for the matchup to make it even more special. Will Nakajima lose his signature locks? Will Kitamiya\u2019s rise to the main event be halted dead in its tracks?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em><span class=\"s1\">Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><span class=\"s3\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
