Following their Lights Out war on Friday's episode of AEW Rampage: Grand Slam, next month will see a rematch between the parings of Jon Moxley & Eddie Kingston and Minoru Suzuki & Lance Archer.

Mox and Kingston were victorious on Friday, although Suzuki and Archer took umbrage with how that contest played out. As such, the Suzuki-gun tandem laid down the challenge for the Death Rider and the Mad King to face them at NJPW Strong Showdown on 17 October in a Street Fight.

Since then, the NJPW Twitter account has confirmed that this challenge has been accepted and that Moxley & Kingston vs. Suzuki & Archer will take place in Philadelphia's famed 2300 Arena, aka the ECW Arena.

In addition to this tag team Street Fight, also set for this next set of NJPW tapings are:
