Update: NWA World Hvt. champion Satoshi Kajima will make two title defenses in the U.S. next month.

The NWA announced Saturday night that Kojima will make one defense at a Southern All-Star Wrestling show on May 30 in Nashville, Tenn.

If Kojima retains, he will advance to a second title defense at an NWA Houston show on May 31. Opponents have not been named yet.

Saturday, April 12 Result

Satoshi Kojima pinned Rob Conway to retain the NWA World Title at a New Japan show in Taiwan on Saturday.

This was Conway's return match after losing the NWA Title to Kojima at the Tokyo Dome Show on January 4.

Playing up the New Japan vs. NWA feud, the NWA claimed that Kojima retained the title "with what some witnesses say was a fast count by the NJPW ref."

Also on the show, former NWA tag champion Jax Dane beat NWA tag champion Tenzan in a singles match.

The main event of the New Japan show featured Tanahashi & Togi Makabe & Tetsuya Naito defeating IWGP World Hvt. champion Kazuchika Okada & IWGP Intercontinental champion Shinsuke Nakamura & Yujiro Takahashi in a six-man tag match.
