AEW International champion Konosuke Takeshita will be
wrestling at the upcoming NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 19 pay-per-view
in January.

NEVER champion Shingo Takagi issued a title challenge for
Takeshita after the AEW champ retained his championship
against TJP at the NJPW Fighting Spirit Unleashed event.

This will be a winner-take-all match and both titles are on
the line. The winner of this match is rumored to be taking on
Tomohoro Ishii the following day at the NJPW/AEW show Wrestle
Dynasty.

Takeshita won the title at WrestleDream last month, defeating
champion Will Ospreay and Ricochet in a three-way match.
