The addition of Titan to Los Ingobernables De Japon has created a potentially fantastic junior heavyweight tag team alongside BUSHI. They’ve had the number of the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions TJP & Francesco Akira throughout the Battle Autumn tour – and tonight, they kick off the final stop of the tour with the belts on the line. This will bring the energy to start this show, and BUSHI might finally get a chance to hold those belts for the first time since 2019. Add in singles wins over TJP & Akira on November 3rd, and it’s hard to not root for the challengers tonight.

Titan & BUSHI would start fast with tandem dropkicks, sending United Empire to the floor before dual dives. TJP would avoid a double team in the corner, before Akira would help him to gain control of the match. A slingshot dropkick on the floor stunned BUSHI, and Akira dove onto both challengers.
