The duo won NJPW World Tag League 2024, but instead of challenging for the IWGP Tag Team Championships, decided to face each other at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 19.
Hiromu and Naito were originally scheduled to meet at the NJPW 48th Anniversary event in March 2020, but it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
