NJPW Xtra debuting on YouTube November 1

NJPW has announced a new YouTube series, set to debut on Monday, November 1 on their English-language channel.

NJPW Xtra will primarily be a news and highlights show, according to the announcement, but each week an exclusive match will also air on the show. 

The November 1 episode will feature the dark match from August’s NJPW Resurgence event in Los Angeles, with Jordan Clearwater, Kevin Knight and The DKC taking on Bateman, Misterioso and Barrett Brown. 

The November 8 episode will include a Will Ospreay vs. Alex Zayne match from the New Japan Showdown tapings in Philadelphia earlier this month. 

The announcement states that NJPW Xtra will include highlights from both NJPW’s main roster, plus the NJOA branch of the company that produces NJPW Strong. 

The next NJPW event in the United States will be the Saturday, November 13 Battle in the Valley event in San Jose, California. That show will air with English commentary on FITE TV and on NJPW World with Japanese commentary. The show airs at 11 p.m. Eastern time, head-to-head with the final hour of AEW’s Full Gear pay-per-view.
