WWE NXT tag team to challenge for NOAH’s GHC Tag Team titles
Hank & Tank are already getting a shot at the GHC Tag Team titles.
Pro Wrestling NOAH confirmed that the former NXT Tag Team Champions will face Masa Kitamiya and Takashi Sugiura on November 8 at Korakuen Hall.
It comes after the two made their debut on Sunday morning, defeating Alpha Wolf and Dragon Bane. They later confronted the tag team champions on the same show, issuing a challenge backstage that the champions later accepted.
The two began their tour of Japan after they were written off NXT on last week’s show, having been taken out by the returning OTM.
NOAH has seen an uptick of NXT talent on their cards in the last month. Charlie Dempsey and Harlem Lewis made their debut back on October 4 in Nagoya, facing each other in a singles match. Most recently, they teamed with Yoshiki Inamura to defeat KAYATA, KENTA, and Ulka Sasaki on October 21. Inamura has recently made his return to Japan after spending most of the year wrestling on NXT television.
