While no match announcements have been made for Battle in the Valley yet, the show will feature the fallout from NJPW’s biggest events of the year. The Tokyo Dome is hosting Wrestle Kingdom 19 on January 4 and Wrestle Dynasty on January 5. Wrestle Dynasty will feature talent from NJPW, AEW, Stardom, CMLL, and ROH.

The main event of Battle in the Valley 2024 was Kazuchika Okada defeating Will Ospreay before both of those wrestlers joined AEW.

NJPW will also be in California for Strong Style Evolved 2024 this December. Long Beach is hosting that show on Sunday, December 15.
