Hot off his run in New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s prestigious Best of the Super Juniors 32 tournament, KUSHIDA proved once again why he remains one of the most dynamic forces in the sport. In the 2025 tournament, the “Time Splitter” scored victories over top-tier competition including Yoshinobu Kanemaru, Taiji Ishimori, and Dragon Dia — a run that reasserted his presence in the global spotlight.

KUSHIDA last competed representing MLW during the landmark MLW vs. CMLL event in Mexico City on May 2, where he headlined Arena México in a dream match against the legendary Místico. 

A six-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion, KUSHIDA brings his time-traveling, hybrid style back to MLW as a top contender in the World Middleweight division. With MLW in the process of charting its next steps to crown a new World Middleweight Champion, KUSHIDA is determined to carve his name into the title picture.

“KUSHIDA is one of the most decorated middleweights in the world,” said MLW President Cesar Duran. “We are finalizing talks with several high-caliber opponents. Expect an announcement soon.”

Don’t miss KUSHIDA’s return to New York City as he sets the tone for a new era in MLW’s middleweight division.
