Tajiri Returning to WWE in the Spring

– The Japanese Buzzsaw is returning to WWE. Tajiri took to Twitter to announce that he is set to return to WWE this coming spring. The post (in Japanese, obvious) is below, in which Tajiri says that he received the “Okay” from William Regal to announce that he will return to the company in the spring and his final match in Japan will be later this month. He thanked his fans for the last ten years in Japan.

Tajiri worked for WWE starting in 2001 through 2005 and has made sporadic appearances on and off since. He was a participant in the WWE Cruiserweight Classic, losing in the second round to Gran Metalik.

昨日のNXT大阪公演でリーガルGMから「明日から公表してもいいですよ」とのOKを頂きましたので公表させていただきます。来春年明け早々よりWWEに戻ります。12/27金村引退興行を日本での最後の試合とし、鍼灸活動も日本では今月で終わります。皆さま、10年間ありがとうございました！！
