El Phantasmo is coming to New Japan.
During today's New Japan Cup, a video promo aired announcing the upcoming debut of El Phantasmo. The promo ended with the Bullet Club logo, indicating he will be part of the Bullet Club stable. No official date was given for the debut of El Phantasmo, who will likely compete in the junior heavyweight division.
