New Tag Champions to be Decided at Redzone Hiroshima
Bishamon, United Empire to decide tag titles
New IWGP Tag Team Champions will be decided at Wrestling Redzone in Hiroshima on April 26, as former four time champions Hirooki Goto and YOSHI-HASHI of Bishamon face recent champions as individuals in Callum Newman and Great-O-Khan from the United Empire.

Both O-Khan and Newman's respective runs as IWGP Tag Team Champions have ended as a result of vacancies, with the titles currently sitting vacant for the second time in five months. In December, a knee injury sustained by HENARE forced he and O-Khan to relinquish the titles that would be won by the Young Bucks at Wrestle Dynasty, and then Tetsuya Naito and Hiromu Takahashi at New Beginning in Osaka this February.
Newman and Jeff Cobb took the titles from the LIJ duo as recently as April 5 at Sakura Genesis, but a sudden departure from NJPW on the part of Cobb has now seen the titles vacated. In the wake of that departure, an angered Newman declared that not only would he earn the belts back, but he would take the IWGP World Heavyweight title as well. Now the tag gold is on the line, and with Goto still in possession of the world title and O-Khan the recently crowned NJPW World TV Champion, someone will be leaving Hiroshima with double gold.
More tag team action in Hiroshima will see Taichi and Tomohiro Ishii teaming for the first time, after a shocking handshake between the two rivals at the New Japan Cup final. The Holy Emperor and the newly crowned NJPW STRONG Openweight Champion will be facing former IWGP Champions in Hiromu Takahashi and Tetsuya Naito, and it could be the case that the new champions crowned at Redzone will not have to wait long for their first challengers to emerge.
