Titan of CMLL joined Los Ingobernables de Japon on Monday’s show, aiding the group in a match against members of United Empire. He revealed himself under a mask and asked to join LIJ. The team discussed the matter and then held their fists in the air. Titan joined them, officially becoming a member of LIJ.

Master Wato pinned Taiji Ishimori in a non-title match, replacing KUSHIDA who was originally advertised. After the match, both Hiromu Takahashi and El Desperado came in to also make their claim for the next shot. A four-way was eventually agreed to, setting up the next title match.

Prior to the start of Monday’s show, Yuji Nagata announced that Oleg Boltin, an amateur wrestler from Kazakhstan, had joined the company. Boltin competed in the 2022 freestyle wrestling World Championships, finishing fifth.
