NJPW World Tag League 2025 night two results
Action in the NJPW World Tag League B Block kicked off on Saturday.
Four round-robin matches took place today in Fujisawa City.
The Monstersauce team of Lance Archer and Alex Zayne overcame House of Torture tactics in the opening match to pick up a win over SANADA and Ren Narita. Despite ref bumps and whisky sprays, Archer & Zayne hit their tag team finish Blackout Sauce on SANADA for the win.
The second match saw TMDK’s Zack Sabre Jr. and Ryohei Oiwa pick up a win over United Empire’s Great-O-Khan and Callum Newman in a back-and-forth match that saw TMDK hit a double team big boot/German suplex combo for the win.
The semi-main event of night saw Yuya Uemura and Shota Umino pick up the win over El Phantasmo and Hiroshi Tanahashi after hitting a clothesline into a Dragon Suplex combo on ELP followed by Umino hitting him with The Second Chapter. After the match, three of the four wrestlers got on their knees and bowed to each other. Uemura got on his knees but did not bow his head. Chris Charlton pointed this out on commentary.
The main event of the night saw the IWGP Tag Team Champions defeated by David Finlay & Hiromu Takahashi. Yuto-Ice and OSKAR thought they had the match won when Ice hit a big boot on Takahashi but didn’t realize Finlay had blind tagged in moments earlier. Finlay rolled up an unsuspecting Ice for the three count and two points for his team.
Finlay cut a promo after the match as Takahashi continued to lay unconscious in the middle of the ring after the boot from Ice. Finlay joking interviewed a woozy Takahashi, asking him who his favorite tag partner of all time was and similar questions. Takahashi was not able to muster up much in the way of responses and the show came to a close.
