King of Pro Wrestling Title bout set.
New Japan Pro-Wrestling announced that SHO will defend his KOPW Title against Taichi on November 17 at New Japan Road.
After HOUSE OF TORTURE lost in the Super Junior Tag League finals, an even more deranged SHO than usual blamed Taichi for he and Yoshinobu Kanemaru's defeat, claiming that the Holy Emperor had infused the KOPW belt ‘with some kind of weird energy’. Now SHO challenges Taichi November 17, but under what rules?
Plus, Tomoaki Honma, Ryusuke Taguchi and Ren Narita will face Tomohiro Ishii, Kazuchika Okada and Hiroshi Tanahashi in a non-title match.
There will also be two eight-man bouts as HOUSE OF TORTURE faces Just 5 Guys in one match and Los Ingobernables battles Hontai.
Fightful will have results from the event following its conclusion.
