IWGP Tag Team Title Bout Set For NJPW Road To King of Pro-Wrestling
The rematch is set for NJPW Road to King of Pro-Wrestling.
New Japan Pro-Wrestling announced that HENARE and Great-O-Khan will defend the IWGP Tag Team Titles against the Knockout Brothers (OSKAR & Yuto-Ice) at NJPW Road to King of Pro-Wrestling on October 6.
From NJPW:
The Battle Line Hokkaido series continued Saturday night in Mura with a wild main event that pit the Knockout Bros. side of OSKAR and Yuto-Ice against Togi Makabe and Toru Yano.
The blood soaked fight saw everything from chairs, to scissors, to the appearance of Tomoaki Honma and Takashi Iizuka working against Ice and OSKAR, but the duo rallied, and the KOB saw the former champions victorious.
With that result, OSKAR and Ice have now earned a shot at the IWGP Tag Team Championships, and that match will take place on October 6 in Korakuen Hall! Back at Dominion in June, a controversial finish saw Great-O-Khan utilise a chair to help he and HENARE to their second reign with the IWGP Tag gold. Ice and OSKAR have been itching for revenge ever since, leading to some heated individual battles during the G1. Now, will KOB be able to get their own second reign, or will it be HENARE and O-Khan scooping their first defence?
