Sakazaki spent a decade of her career in TJPW, becoming one of their most decorated wrestlers along the way. Her time with the Tokyo-based promotion included three different runs as the Princess of Princess Champion, and four different tag team title reigns.
Sakazaki graduated from TJPW in 2023, leaving the promotion to pursue a career in the U.S.
She has primarily been an AEW/ROH wrestler for the past year, but has kept a presence in TJPW. She most recently appeared at the promotion’s annual January 4 card, teaming with Moka Miyamoto to defeat Arisu Endo and Shino Suzuki.
The upcoming event is part of TJPW’s first trip to Texas. The promotion is scheduled to host a pair of events in Houston earlier in the weekend, presenting shows on Thursday and Friday. Sakazaki is notably not expected to appear on those cards.
