Two championships will be defended during the Kizuna Road tour when New Japan Pro-Wrestling stops by Korakuen Hall.

In the main event of the June 22 show, YOSHI-HASHI, Tomohiro Ishii and Hirooki Goto will defend the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Title against Bullet Club's EVIL, Yujiro Takahashi and Dick Togo.

This will be the Chaos' team's sixth defence of the gold they have held since August 2020. They have twice defeated a combination of Bullet Club members during their current reign, including Jay White and Guerrillas Of Destiny, and KENTA, Yujiro Takahashi and Taiji Ishimori.

Bullet Club will take on Chaos again on June 23 when El Phantasmo and Taiji Ishimori challenge Roppongi 3K for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. ELP revealed the match would be taking place during yesterday's Dominion show and NJPW has now officially announced the title bout.

Other title matches, including an IWGP World Heavyweight Championship match, are expected to be officially sanctioned soon but when they will take place is currently unknown.
