NJPW World Tag League & Super Junior Tag League 2022 Results: SAUCEHEARTS [6] Defeats House of Torture [0], Aussie Open [6] Defeats Suzuki-gun [4] (11/27)

When it comes to odd pairings in the Super Junior Tag League, SAUCEHEARTS have proven they’re one of the best. El Lindaman & Alex Zayne took loose links and combined them into a fantastic tag team. Tonight, they would like to get their third win of the tournament, and considering SHO & Dick Togo haven’t even been able to get on the board yet? Things are looking great for Lindaman & Zayne.

House Of Torture Try To Make This A Handicap Match By Taking Out Alex Zayne

Togo & SHO would attack before Zayne & Lindaman even made their way down the ramp – with SHO hitting a piledriver on the stage to Zayne. Lindaman would be taken into the ring and hit with a double spinebuster, before a double Kimura. Togo would apply a tight headlock, before SHO would catch Lindaman with a powerbomb into a backstabber.

Lindaman would be able to kick out, and Zayne reached the apron only to be taken down by Togo. SHO would lock the Snakebite in – with Zayne able to make the save before being thrown to the floor by Togo. Lindaman would hit some strikes in the corner, before Zayn would hit the bicycle kick in the ring.

Togo & SHO were dropped by a double Frankensteiner, before SHO took a stiff back elbow. Zayne was taken out with a lariat to the floor, tumbling out himself. Lindaman blocked a Pedigree attempt in the ring and hit an Exploder Suplex. Togo would get a series of roll ups for a two count, before locking in the crossface.

Lindaman was able to break free and hit a German Suplex – winning the match without ever being able to tag Zayne into the match. This win would push SAUCEHEARTS to a 3-1 record, and at a fantastic six points, with their lone loss being against the reigning tag champions Catch 2/2.

Mark Davis & Lance Archer Test Their Strength

Aussie Open have claimed that they now rule the tag team division in NJPW, having wiped the floor with last year’s World Tag League winners of Bishamon, and with FTR not even being in Japan for the tournament. However, two men who will disagree with their claims – that being Minoru Suzuki & Lance Archer of Suzuki-gun. Much like Aussie Open, Archer & Suzuki enter tonight on a hot streak – but only one team will be able to leave tonight with six points.

Archer & Davis would start things off, rolling to the floor to get more room to crash into each other with shoulder tackles. Fans got a great view as they met in a stalemate twice. Back in the ring, Davis would nearly catch Archer with a boot to the face, before Archer hit a running crossbody.

Suzuki & Fletcher hit the ring, the more technical members of each team, but Suzuki’s career is 11 years old than Fletcher. Despite this, Fletcher would stand and take the strikes of Suzuki, folding fairly quickly. A wrist lock by Fletcher would be blocked by Suzuki, before he’d take an armbreaker over the rope and the hanging armbar.

Davis & Archer were brawling on the floor alongside Suzuki & Fletcher, with Suzuki-gun firmly in control. Archer would get a chance to go assist Suzuki, before rolling Fletcher into the ring for an armbar – only escaping due to catching the bottom rope with his leg.

Minoru Suzuki Always Fights Until The Bitter End

Archer would hit some running back elbows to Fletcher, before allowing a tag to Davis. The powerhouse of Aussie Open would stun Archer with an enziguri, before a sliding forearm smash in the corner. Archer would roll to the floor, where Aussie Open would sandwich him using Young Lions. Back in the ring, Suzuki & Archer would drop Fletcher, with Archer hitting a running splash for a two count.

Fletcher would be caught with a PK from Suzuki, and was still able to remain in the fight. His strikes just made Suzuki laugh, but he’d keep them coming only for Suzuki to drop him with a single forearm smash. Sleeper Hold would be applied, with Fletcher quickly fading.

Suzuki would turn him around to set up the Gotch Style Piledriver, with Fletcher able to slip free and hit a Brainbuster for a near fall. Aussie Open would catch Archer with the Dental Plan, before taking turns hitting lariats on Suzuki. Finally, they’d catch Suzuki with Corealis, getting a well earned victory.
