On June 11th, the rematchs the world has been waiting for! Okada vs. Omega! Naito vs. Tanahashi!

After narrowly defending the IWGP Heavyweight title against the fierce Bad Luck Fale, Okada had some choice words for his Wrestle Kingdom rival Kenny Omega! 
 
“Hey, Kenny! Japanese fans…no, fans all over the world, are clamoring for Okada vs. Kenny. Don’t you still want this belt? If not, then go ahead and get out of here!”
 
And with that, Kenny took to the ring to formally make his intentions clear: Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega still have unfinished business over the IWGP Heavyweight Championship! 
But June 11th will also be the night the IWGP Intercontinental Championship is decided once again between Tetsuya Naito and challenger Hiroshi Tanahashi! Having suffered one of his worst defeats to date at the hands of the LIJ leader at the Tokyo Dome, Tanahashi has been focused on one thing only: returning to the top of New Japan. Declaring his hate for the way Naito treats the Intercontinental title, Tanahashi looks to finally make his return to glory and show Naito what it means to be the true Ace of the company! 
 
On June 11th at Osaka-Jo Hall, pro-wrestling’s greatest athletes will clash once again!
Stay tune on our announcements for some more matches!
