Michael Elgin is heading back to Japan.
Pro Wrestling NOAH announced that Elgin will take on Masa Kitamiya on April 30 at night two of NOAH's Majestic 2022 event.
Elgin previously wrestled for NOAH in 2019 and 2020, working three matches for the company. He has only wrestled a handful of matches since it was announced that he had been suspended by IMPACT Wrestling in June 2020 and would not be appearing on future programming.

In February, Elgin filed a lawsuit against IMPACT claiming a breach of contract. The lawsuit alleged that he was requested by Pro Wrestling NOAH to perform at a December 2020 event at Nippon Budokan, but "Defendant unilaterally canceled Plaintiff's appearance, severely damaging Plaintiff's reputation in Japan."
