Tag Matches Changed For NJPW Destruction In Kobe
Card is always subject to change.
That’s what happened when New Japan Pro Wrestling announced that the final show of the Destruction tour, Destruction in Kobe, will have alterations to two matches. Both matches are tag matches and their changes reflect recent show results that saw YOH pin Tama Tonga and EVIL confront Kota Ibushi immediately after Ibushi retained his Tokyo Domo IWGP Heavyweight contract against KENTA.
As such, the respective parties that confronted each other in the past will face off in tag matches at the Destruction in Kobe show on September 22. The rest of the card is fairly intact and below are the list of matches:
