The marquee match will see Ring of Honor (ROH) wrestler Brody King make his return to NJPW after his last appearance on June 5, 2019. Take on the former six-time IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champion Tama Tonga of the Bullet Club.

This tournament is meaningful to Yoshi-Hashi who has never won a title during his career. After his vicious exit from the 2020 New Japan Cup Tournament, he will want to make the best of the opportunity in front of him.

After the match, Ibushi almost took Dangerous Tekkers up on their offer of attacking Tanahashi but was instead attacked by the champions — bringing more tension between him and his current tag team partner.

The match saw the CHAOS team of five-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada, three-time IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champion Toru Yano, and current one-half of the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Sho defeat the Bullet Club team of Yujiro Takahashi, Gedo, and Jado in 12 minutes and 3 seconds.

However, Sanada quietly grabbed the moment as his continuous victories make it seem as if he is on a collision course with IWGP Heavyweight and IWGP Intercontinental ‘Double Champion’ Evil.
