12 Biggest Stories From NJPW King Of Pro-Wrestling And What They Mean Going Forward
8. Bullet Club OGs Continue Dominance Over The Elite
The Bullet Club’s faction war has been fought throughout much of 2018, ever since the OGs officially split from The Elite at San Francisco’s G1 Supercard in July. King of Pro-Wrestling saw the two groups again meet, this time in an eight-man tag match wherein Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa, Taiji Ishimori, and Bad Luck Fale racked up another decisive win over their former BC brethren.
Matt Jackson was targeted by the OGs for most of the match, as they relentlessly attacked his still ailing back which was heavily taped. Ultimately, The Elite’s Chase Owens proved the weakest link as he succumbed to a tandem gun stun courtesy of the recently crowned IWGP Heavyweight Tag champs of Toma and Tanga.
With the World Tag League on the horizon, the Tongans' Wrestle Kingdom challengers will be determined courtesy of the tournament. Surely, The Young Bucks will take part in the series of events and will be aiming to secure their spot across the ring from Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa in an attempt to recapture the IWGP Tag Team championships.
