A pair of title matches will headline the first leg of NJPW’s Kizuna Road tour this month.
On Tuesday, June 22, Hirooki Goto, Tomohiro Ishii and YOSHI-HASHI will defend the NEVER Openweight Six-Man Tag Team Championships against EVIL, Yujiro Takahashi and Dick Togo.
On Wednesday, June 23, SHO and YOH will defend the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championships against Taiji Ishimori and El Phantasmo.
Both title matches were set up with angles on yesterday’s Dominion show.
The other key announcement for the tour are a pair of singles gauntlets for Young Lions Yota Tsuji and Yuya Uemura.
Each night of the tour, both Tsuji and Uemura will face an established star in singles competition.
