NJPW reveals full Super Jr. Tag League lineup

A number of new faces and teams will take part in this year’s Super Junior tag league.

Unlike previous years, this year the winners will not be determined via a single elimination tournament. Instead, it will be a round robin tournament where eight teams compete in matches against one another. The two teams with the most points will face each other in the finals at Power Struggle.

The participants for this year’s tournament include:

  • IWGP Jr. tag team champions El Desperado and Yoshinobu Kanemaru
  •  SHO and YOH from Roppongi 3K
  • Jushin Thunder Liger and Tiger Mask
  • Taiji Ishimori and Robbie Eagles
  • BUSHI and Shingo Takagi
  • KUSHIDA and Chris Sabin
  • ACH and Ryusuke Taguchi
  • Volador Jr. and Soberano Jr. from CMLL

Matches will take place throughout the next few weeks on the Road to Power Struggle tour, with some airing live and others being uploaded on New Japan World. Check them all out below:
