NJPW Road to the New Beginning Results: Bullet Club vs. United Empire in todays Wrestling news
The IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Titles were defended at the show.
The IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championships have been won by the Bullet Club War Dogs team, Clark Connors & Drilla Maloney.
The ongoing rivalry between The United Empire vs Bullet Club was featured in NJPW’s Korakuen Hall show on Sunday. The two factions are set to wrestle in a steel cage on February 11 at the New Beginning event in Osaka.
In today’s main match, Connors and Maloney defeated Catch2/2’s TJP & Francesco Akira to win the belts. Connors won the belts after pinning Akira with a Full Clip.
TJP is now under the influence his new Aswang (an evil being in Filipino folklore), since he was locked in a coffin with Bullet Club before Wrestle Kingdom. TJP’s new, vicious side was revealed in Sunday’s match. He asked Akira to assist him with using a table against his opponents. Akira’s hesitation gave their opponents the advantage. Akira hesitated again when Maloney tried to use a fork against his opponents later in the match. Chris Charlton said on commentary that Akira may not be up to the task of competing in brutal matches, such as the steel-cage match scheduled for Osaka this weekend.
Bullet Club attacked United Empire after the match, leaving the members in the ring while David Finlay did a promo. Bullet Club then powerbombed Akira into a bunch chairs after Finlay finished.
Jeff Cobb was supposed to wrestle Alex Coughlin in today’s show. NJPW announced that Cobb had sustained a thigh-injury and was replaced in the match by Great-O Khan. They also ran a storyline where Bullet Club attacked Cobb in the back after an autograph signing.
The promotion announced that Jeff Cobb, who was due to compete in Korakuen Hall on tonight’s show, had sustained an injury to his left leg and would not be able to compete tonight. “We apologize for disappointing fans who were eager to see Cobb wrestle. We appreciate your understanding.”
