TNA Wrestling sent out the following:

THE GREAT MUTA Announced for Special Appearance at TNA’s June 25th TV Taping in NYC

Simply, The Great Muta is one of the brightest international stars the professional wrestling world has ever known. Throughout his career, he’s held wrestling gold 19 times and has won awards and praise across the globe. Not only that, but The Great Muta has consistently worked to shine a light on new talent from his native Japan – most recently sending his protégé Sanada to TNA, who quickly captured the X-Division Championship. The Great Muta is also responsible for some of the most exciting Japanese wrestling under his own Wrestle-1 banner!

TNA Wrestling is extremely honored and excited to announce that The Great Muta will be returning to TNA this summer and is set to take part in our first IMPACT in New York City, on June 25 at the Manhattan Center. Additional details will be revealed shortly.

Muta was last seen at TNA Lockdown in Miami, where he teamed with his Wrestle-1 proteges, Sanda and Yasu. To celebrate the return of The Great Muta to TNA, that match from Lockdown is now available below in its entirety.

More surprises will be revealed soon!
