The Good Brothers have accepted Jon Moxley's challenge for NJPW Resurgence.

On August 14, New Japan Pro Wrestling comes to Los Angeles, and one of the marquee attractions for the event was laid down the other day when Jon Moxley challenged Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows to a tag team match. The former AEW Champion also said that he would be bringing a friend with him, but didn't say who.

The Good Brothers responded to Moxley by saying the following (full clip above & below):

Karl Anderson: "Look at this [touches title belt], the World Tag Team Champions of IMPACT Wrestling. That's us; The Machine Gun Karl Anderson, the best big man in the entire business, The Big LG, Doc Gallows. August 14th, Resurgence, Jon Moxley, you're bringing a surprise partner."

Doc Gallows: "Oh, a mystery partner in Los Angeles, California at the LA Coliseum. Resurgence. You know what it sounds like to me, Mox? It sounds like a mystery Magic Killer for the mystery partner and then a Magic Killer for you Mox. Because the seven-time World Tag Team Champions are coming back home and just like we said, and we always say, it's that same old recipe, because I like saying it and I'm going to say it again; it's a Magic Killer, a 1-2-3, and a just too sweet. That's elite."

Moxley has been engaged in a rivalry with The Good Brothers in recent months on AEW television as part of his war, alongside Eddie Kingston, with The Elite.

Here is the current lineup for NJPW Resurgence:

NJPW Resurgence - August 14

- NEVER Openweight Championship: Jay White (c) vs. David Finlay
- Alex Coughlin vs. Karl Fredericks
- Fred Rosser, Wheeler Yuta & Rocky Romero vs. Ren Narita, Clark Connors & TJP
- IWGP United States Championship: Lance Archer (c) vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi
- Jon Moxley & TBA vs. The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows & Karl Anderson)
