Last night's NJPW Capital Collision saw Bullet Club add Clark Connors to its ranks.

Before Connors joined forces with David Finlay, he was on the losing side of the ten-man tag contest which pitted Clark, the DKC, Chuck Taylor, Rocky Romero & Lio Rush against Kushida, Mike Bailey, Volador Jr., Gabriel Kidd & Kevin Enright. Following that loss, Connors attacked the DKC in the aisleway.

That tag match was immediately followed by David Finley defeating AR Fox. Post-match, Finlay offered Connors a spot in his Bullet Club, with led to the pair throwing up the Too Sweet hand gesture and Connors effectively replacing El Phantasmo in the group.

Elsewhere at Capital Collision, the results were as follows:

- NJPW World Television Champion Zack Sabre Jr. defeated Tom Lawlor
