Brody King vs. Minoru Suzuki official for NJPW Capital Collision

A new match has been made official for NJPW’s Capital Collision pay-per-view.

NJPW has confirmed that Brody King vs. Minoru Suzuki will take place at Capital Collision on Saturday, May 14. The show is being held at the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Washington, D.C.

King vs. Suzuki was set up for Capital Collision when King confronted Suzuki backstage at Windy City Riot earlier this month:

“After a hard fought war between Minoru Suzuki and Tomohiro Ishii two weeks ago at Windy City Riot, Suzuki was in a foul mood when approached by Brody King. King would demand a match against Suzuki at Washington, while professional wrestling’s King was suitably incensed at ‘Big Bad’ Brody getting in his space,” NJPW wrote.

“It didn’t take too long for the relevant arrangements to be made, and this match is now official! Brody King will go head to head with Minoru Suzuki for the first time on Saturday May 14 at Capital Collision in Washington DC!”

King debuted for AEW this January and is part of the promotion’s House of Black stable with Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews.

Here’s the updated card for Capital Collision:

  • Eddie Kingston vs. Tomohiro Ishii
  • Brody King vs. Minoru Suzuki

Kazuchika Okada, Hiroshi Tanahashi, Jon Moxley, and Will Ospreay are also among the talent set for Capital Collision. Moxley has issued a challenge to Tanahashi for the show.
