You know what anime needs way more of? Professional wrestling! That’s the void Tiger Mask W—a sequel to the classic ’60s/’70s Tiger Mask anime—aims to fill, and the Japanese broadcast schedule has it set to begin on October 1.

Tiger Mask W will air every Saturday on TV Asahi, telling the tale of a pair of young pro wrestlers, Naoto Azuma and Takuma Fujii, who don masked identities to seek revenge on the evil Global Wrestling Monopoly. Toshiaki Komura directs the series at Toei Animation. 

For a quick peek, here’s a promo from July:
