William Regal announced on social media that his son Charlie Dempsey will be the NXT Superstar challenging for the All Japan Pro Wrestling Triple Crown Championship.
This is the first time that Regal has actually publicly acknowledged that Dempsey is his real-life son.
The AJPW Triple Crown Championship is currently held by Katsuhiko Nakajima. Nakajima is scheduled to defend the Championship against Kento Miyahara on December 31. Dempsey will challenge the winner at AJPW’s New Year Giant Series 2024, which will take place at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan on Tuesday, January 3.
AJPW recently posted a video to their X account with AJPW President Tsuyoki Fukuda revealing that a mystery NXT Superstar will challenge for the Triple Crown Title at the promotion’s New Year Giant Series 2024.
Fukuda says: “You have good superstar for us? What? Submission assassin? Killer catch style? Great. Thank you. Thank you. My pleasure. Appreciate your support this time. Please say thanks to your boss in WWE.”
