8 - Ryohei Oiwa and Zack Sabre Jr. vs. SANADA and Gabe Kidd
After Jake Lee appeared in the G1 Climax, Kidd and Lee looked like a solid team for World Tag League. Now that SANADA is a part of Bullet Club War Dogs, that all went out the window.
Good match. Hard hitting match.
Oiwa pins Kidd with a school boy roll up.
TMDK earns 2 points.
War Dogs has 0 points.
Oiwa is scheduled to face Kidd for the New Japan Strong Openweight Championship in Long Beach on December 15. Oiwa and Kidd brawl into the crowd after the match.
New Japan has Jr. Heavyweights in the World Tag League Tournament which is a problem. The roster is very thin when Ryusuke Taguchi, TAKA Michinoku, Jado and Tomaki Honma are competing and their teams will more than likely lose. Zack Sabre Jr. should not be in the tournament either as he is defending the World Title on back to back nights in January. If the roster is this short handed, then these tournaments should end and just have house shows building towards Wrestle Kingdom.
