Josh Alexander, KUSHIDA, Rocky Romero, And More Set For Eight-Man Tag At NJPW Battle In The Valley

Josh Alexander and KUSHIDA will clash in an eight-man tag team match at NJPW Battle in the Valley.

New Japan Pro-Wrestling has announced that Alexander, the reigning IMPACT World Champion, will team up with Mascara Dorada, Rocky Romero, and Adrian Quest to face KUSHIDA, Kevin Knight, Volador Jr., and The DKC.

The match will mark Alexander's first NJPW show since NJPW Windy City Riot in April 2022.

NJPW also confirmed that the Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin) will defend the NJPW STRONG Openweight Tag Team Championship against the West Coast Wrecking Crew (Jorel Nelson & Royce Isaacs). Nelson and Isaacs confronted the champions backstage following their match on the January 21 episode of NJPW STRONG to set up the bout. Sabin and Shelley won the titles at NJPW Rumble on 44th Street in October.

Fightful will have coverage of the show as it airs on February 18.
