DOUKI is back.
DOUKI made his return at NJPW Dominion, aligning with SHO and Yoshinobu Kanemaru in House of Torture.
DOUKI & SHO won the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Titles, defeating Master Wato & YOH.
The finish saw Kanemura spit liquor into the face of Wato and SHO hit YOH with a wrench. DOUKI then took a club to Wato's knee before locking on a knee bar and forcing a tap out.
SHO was originally scheduled to team with Kanemaru, but the latter entered the arena with a sling on his arm and it was stated he was unable to compete. DOUKI was revealed as the mystery partner, much to the surprise of everyone. Kanemura was also faking his injury, attacking Wato & YOH before the match.

This was DOUKI's first match since NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 19 in January when he suffered dislocated elbow in his bout against El Desperado.
This marks the first reign as IWGP Junior Tag Team Champions for SHO & DOUKI. YOH & Wato held the titles for 47 days and made zero successful title defenses.
