House of Torture has recruited two new members to help with their cheating ways. 

At today’s NJPW World Tag League show in Shizuoka, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona were offered and accepted a spot in the stable. The invitation comes just before Kaun & Liona are set to wrestle House of Torture’s Yujiro Takahashi & EVIL on Friday’s show. 

The opening match on Wednesday’s World Tag League show saw Kaun and Liona team with Yuto Nakashima in a loss to EVIL, Takahashi, and SHO. After the match, EVIL & Takahashi offered the Gates of Agony a handshake and two House of Torture t-shirts, which they accepted. 

From NJPW1972.com:

Backstage, Kaun alluded to comments made the night before- ‘You think you know whose house it is- but you’ve gotta go through the gates first’. Kaun said ‘we never said whose house it was. It was the HOUSE OF TORTURE. You want to get in the house, you’ve got to go through the gates first.’

Just what does that mean for these two teams as they meet December 1 in Wakayama?

The Gates of Agony and EVIL & Takahashi sit at the bottom of B Block’s group standings. Both teams have two points and 1-3 records.
