NJPW World Tag League

 3rd Match: Robbie Eagles (2-1) vs BUSHI (1-2) 

BoSJ record: 1-0 BUSHI

NJPW World Nov 22

Robbie Eagles has had his date with BUSHI circled on the calendar since his appearance in Best of the Super Jr. 27 was confirmed.

After losing to the masked man in last year’s tournament.

he was then defeated again in February when a NEVER 6-Man Tag team Championship match ended with black mist to his face.

Certainly the Australian wants to deliver a receipt tonight, and to follow up on the biggest win of his campaign so far over SHO in Korakuen. 

For BUSHI though, chagrinned after a tremendous main event battle with partner Hiromu Takahashi that saw him just barely fall short of victory,

the need to get back on track, and catch up after falling one win off the pace. Can he achieve that tonight in Gunma?

2nd Match: Yuya Uemura (0-3) vs Taiji Ishimori (2-1) 

Singles record: 3-0 Ishimori

Yuya Uemura heads into his thrid match fo the tournament to face Taiji Ishimori for the fourth time this year.

Starting in the New Beginning tour, Uemura has steadily eked more ring time out of Ishimori in each confrontation, with 8m13s back in August his record.

After Ishimori had to work harder than he would have liked for victory over DOUKI Friday in Korakuen.

will Uemura push the champion harder again tonight, or will the Bone Soldier quickly shut down the Young Lion?

1st Match: Satoshi Kojima & Tomoaki Honma vs Yuji Nagata & Gabriel Kidd

Tag team action will kick us off in Gunma. Friday in Korakuen, Gabriel Kidd countered one lariat from Satoshi Kojima,

only to eat a second from the strongest arm. Will things be different in Gunma?
