Stipulation Added To NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 13 Match
Jericho vs. Naito has been ramped up a notch or two...
Jan 3, 2019
NJPW's marquee event, Wrestle Kingdom, takes place tomorrow from the world famous Tokyo Dome and one of the main event matches of the night has had a pretty gnarly stipulation added to it.
The IWGP Intercontinental Championship match between Tetsuya Naito and champion Chris Jericho will now be a no-disqualification contest.
The stipulation was added at the pre-WK press conference after the Alpha claimed a standard singles match between he and Naito simply wouldn't be enough. “Here’s my challenge to you,” Chris said. “Jericho vs. Naito II at the Tokyo Dome, I want it to be a no-disqualification match.”
The Los Ingobernables de Japon man accepted and was then put through a table by Jericho.
