Three-way match for IWGP Tag Team titles proposed for Wrestle Dynasty
The Tag Team match for Wrestle Dynasty could now be a three-way.
After Tetsuya Naito and Hiromu Takahashi wrestled one another at Wrestle Kingdom 19 on Saturday, they were confronted backstage by The Great-O-Khan and Jeff Cobb. Naito & Takahashi proposed being added into the United Empire/Young Bucks match at Wrestle Dynasty to determine new IWGP Tag Team Champions. Although the challenge was issued, the three-way has yet to be made official by New Japan Pro Wrestling.
In their post detailing what had happened backstage, NJPW confirmed that Jeff Cobb would be teaming with Great-O-Khan on Sunday. The IWGP Tag Team titles were vacated in December when Great-O-Khan’s partner Henare suffered an injury that forced him out of action.
At Saturday’s show in the Tokyo Dome, Naito defeated Takahashi in the co-main event following a Destino. After the match, Naito extended his fist out to Takahashi. After bowing in a sign of respect, Takahashi fist bumped Naito and the two walked out of the arena together.
