NJPW1972.com shared the following announcement:
Ricochet vs Zach Sabre Jr. official for Wrestle Dynasty!

Ricochet made his presence felt, quite literally in Sabre’s case, with a springboard lariat that took the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion by surprise at the end of Power Struggle Monday. Taking the microphone, the former Best of the Super Jr. winner said that it was ‘time to show the world, I’m still the man around here’ before issuing a challenge for the world title.
By declaring his spot for January 5, Ricochet is taking a gamble that Sabre will still be the champion heading into Wrestle Dynasty. Either way though, with a physical shot to the TMDK frontman, Ricochet will have to answer for his actions come January 5 in the Tokyo Dome!
