NJPW G1 Climax 36 night 15 results, updated standings
NJPW G1 Climax 36 is officially entering its final stretch with only four shows remaining.
Night 15 of the tournament was held in Mie on Thursday, setting the stage for the final night of B Block action. The penultimate B Block show ended with Ren Narita, Callum Newman, Yuya Uemura, Gabe Kidd, and Drilla Moloney all on 10 points. With Moloney not having a match on the last night, the mathematical path for him is difficult. It’s likely that two of Narita, Newman, Uemura, and Kidd will advance to the semifinals.
Here are the quick results from today:
- B Block: Yuya Uemura defeated Gabe Kidd
- B Block: Aaron Wolf defeated Callum Newman
- B Block: Drilla Moloney defeated Ren Narita
- B Block: Zack Sabre Jr. defeated HENARE
- Hirooki Goto & Tatsuya Matsumoto defeated Yuto-Ice & Gedo
- Jake Lee & Zane Jay defeated Yota Tsuji & Daiki Nagai
- Shingo Takagi & Taiji Ishimori defeated SANADA & Yoshinobu Kanemaru
- Great-O-Khan & Jakob Austin Young defeated Oleg Boltin & Masatora Yasuda
The last B Block show is this Thursday (August 13) and has Narita vs. Kidd, Newman vs. HENARE, Uemura vs. OSKAR, and Sabre vs. Wolf scheduled. Narita and Newman both still have destiny in their own hands despite their losses today, while Uemura and Kidd need to win and have other results break their way.
Before that, the final A Block show takes place on Wednesday (August 12). The semifinals and finals are set for this Saturday (August 15) and Sunday (August 16).
