New Japan Pro Wrestling have announced that Juice Robinson has been suspended for his actions at the NJPW Capital Collision event on Saturday night when he attacked Fred Rosser before their match and continued the attack at ringside, before beating down Rosser with a Steel Chair.

New Japan Pro Wrestling’s announcement notes that as a result, Robinson has been pulled from the IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship #1 Contender’s Tournament, with Rosser taking his place in the match on tonight’s NJPW Collision In Philadelphia against Lance Archer. The suspension and match announcement means that the initially planned Fred Rosser & Rocky Romero vs. SANADA & Yoshinobu Kanemaru match will now see Homicide step in to team with Rocky Romero in the match.

The announcement reads, “Thank you for supporting New Japan Pro-Wrestling. On April 15 at Capital Collision, a scheduled match between Juice Robinson and Fred Rosser ended in a no contest when Robinson attacked Rosser before the bell, and also assaulted an official. New Japan Pro-Wrestling holds the safety of its competitors and staff at the highest priority, and after careful consideration, has determined that Juice Robinson be suspended effective immediately and until further notice. As a result, Robinson will not compete at Collision in Philadelphia. NJPW apologises for the sudden card change and any inconvenience and disappointment caused.”
