Jon Moxley's last match in Japan was against Minoru Suzuki. Prior to the pandemic, the reigning IWGP United States Champion was in the middle of a heated feud against Suzuki-Gun.

At Wrestle Kingdom 14, Jon Moxley defeated his current AEW colleague, Lance Archer to win the title. Moments later, the new champion was attacked by Suzuki, who made his intentions of winning the United States Championship clear. Though Moxley was ultimately victorious over Suzuki-Gun, he was attacked by Zack Sabre Jr.

Though Moxley is currently in the United States, NJPW could book a feud between the two stars after the champion concludes his business with Kenny Omega in AEW. A few weeks ago, Sabre Jr. and his tag team partner, Taichi failed to regain the IWGP World Tag Team Championship. In his post-match interview, he stated that he will be returning to singles competition. He could target Moxley in his return to this division.

While Jon Moxley and Sabre Jr. have contrasting in-ring styles, a match between the two would certainly be a must-see contest. If the champion returns to Japan in the coming few months, NJPW could consider re-booking his feud against Sabre Jr.
