One night tournament set for Philly
All Star Junior Festival August 19 2300 Arena Philadelphia TICKETS
All Star Junior festival has its first singles match added to the card with the announcement of Kevin Knight for the lineup today, and that’s not all!
Announced today is the All Star Jr. USA Tournament! The four-man single elimination one-night tournament will see one entrant with the distinction of reigning over the All Star Junior Festival. That’s a distinction that Clark Connors wants to add to his IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag team Championship- but Kevin Knight wants that honor as well. A former junior tag champion himself, Knight has ill feelings toward a one-time LA Dojo ally, stemming from Connors joining BULLET CLUB War Dogs, and then defeating the Jet on night one of Best of the Super Jr. earlier this year. Redemption would also see Knight advance to the final later in the night, but against whom?

One Night Tournament Set for Philly
The All Star Junior Festival, taking place on August 19 at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, has just announced an exciting addition to its lineup. Kevin Knight, a former junior tag champion, is set to compete in a singles match at the event. But that’s not all! A one-night, four-man single elimination tournament, known as the All Star Jr. USA Tournament, will also take place, with the winner being crowned the reigning champion of the All Star Junior Festival.
Clark Connors, who currently holds the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship, is determined to add the distinction of the All Star Junior Festival champion to his list of accomplishments. However, Kevin Knight, who also has a history as a junior tag champion, has his sights set on the same honor. The animosity between the two stems from Connors joining the BULLET CLUB War Dogs and defeating Knight during the Best of the Super Jr. tournament earlier this year.
The stakes are high for both competitors, as redemption and the chance to advance to the final later in the night are on the line. Who will emerge victorious and claim the title of All Star Junior Festival champion?
Stay tuned as we announce more entrants and matches for ASJF2023!
