We’re in the gap between New Beginning and the annual anniversary show in Ota Ward Gym, and this year that means we’ve got two retirements and four title matches, all of which have been airing live and in full on NJPW World, so why not watch along with the best pro wrestling community on the internet?
This week’s tour takes place in Tokyo’s legendary Korakuen Hall, kicking off at 4:30AM Eastern / 1:30AM Pacific, and is headlined by a double main event of the superteam of Kota Ibushi and Hiroshi Tanahashi challenging Guerrillas of Destiny for the IWGP Tag Team Championship, and the unmatched comedic talents of Colt Cabana, Toru Yano, and Ryusuke Taguchi challenging Los Ingobernables de Japon for the NEVER trios belts!
