A look at how you can watch all the action on Saturday morning of WWE Beast in the East, the special event from Japan
This 4th of July weekend, WWE is presenting us quite the holiday treat in the form of a WWE Network special. On Saturday morning, we’ll get to see the show entitled, “WWE Beast in the East,” a live event special from Tokyo, Japan.
This is quite the unprecedented event, as there has never been a live broadcast like this from the country of Japan. But it should be well worth the wait, as we know the Japanese fans value wrestling very much.
As far as some of the matches that we’ll see, this should be quite the treat. Of course, the whole event is headlined by the fact that Brock Lesnar will be wrestling his first match since WrestleMania 31. As of now, while not officially announced, he should be taking on Kofi Kingston.
Then, in the match that everyone is looking forward to, Kevin Owens will be putting his NXT title on the line against Finn Balor. With Balor making his return to the country where he made the biggest name for himself, this should be a sight to see, especially if he’s able to walk away with his first bit of WWE gold.
Here’s a look at the full match card for the WWE Beast in the East event on Saturday:
-Brock Lesnar vs. Kofi Kingston
-John Cena and Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane and King Barrett
-Kevin Owens vs. Finn Balor for the NXT Championship
