Eight-man riot rules match added to NJPW Windy City Riot

A new riot rules match has been announced for NJPW’s Windy City Riot event.

April 12 in Chicago will see Eddie Kingston and three mystery partners take on Gabe Kidd and three mystery partners in an eight-man tag team match. The match will have no disqualifications or count outs, and will be contested under tornado tag team rules. Kingston and Kidd’s tag team partners won’t be known until they make their way to the ring.

Kingston and Kidd previously faced off at Battle in the Valley on January 13 for Kingston’s Continental Crown title. That match ended in a double count out. Members of Bullet Club War Dogs attacked Kingston after the match.

Here is the updated lineup for Windy City Riot:
