Injustice fuels this triple threat tag team war. Irrelevance threatens to ruin it.

The Guerrillas of Destiny felt overlooked enough take the least interesting bits of Bullet Club back in 2018, with Tama Tonga in particular becoming an utterly insufferable heel chasing cheap heat and publicity seemingly at the expense of doing it any other way.

In taking away The Young Bucks' IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Titles, G.O.D robbed them of validation they'd sought as the best team in the world, regardless of weight limits and storytelling limitations.

Just by virtue of even being in this match, Matt and Nick Jackson's placement offends EVIL & SANADA. They are, after all, the World Tag League winners and the men that lost to the brothers last year. They are effectively the purest babyfaces here; a team looking for respect from duos distracted by petty squabbles driven by 'Bad Boy's bad banter.

Wrestle Kingdom 13 will be the night the Los Ingobernables de Japon pair bring their best and put the other p*ssy f*cks in their places. Wrestling's still about showing rather than telling, and the Champions in particular would do well to remember that.

Winners - EVIL & SANADA
