New Japan’s Satoshi Kojima will continue his Impact Wrestling run with a singles battle against Eddie Edwards on Thursday’s Impact Wrestling.

The two teamed up unsuccessfully last week in their challenge of Tag Team Champions Violent By Design (Deaner and Joe Doering). In storyline, this was a match Edwards wanted and there was no falling out based on last week’s result.

Kojima has wins over Doering and Deaner thus far in his story stay in Impact while the former World Champion will be looking for his third straight win.

This will be their second-ever singles match as the two squared off in 2013 for NOAH as Kojima picked up the win.

Here’s the rest of the announced lineup for Thursday’s AXS show:

Team Callis (World Champion Kenny Omega & The Good Brothers) vs. Team Dreamer (Sami Callihan, Moose and Chris Sabin)
Chris Bey vs. Petey Williams
TJP and Fallah Bahh vs. Rich Swann and Willie Mack
