Night Four of New Japan Pro Wrestling‘s Road to Destruction tour is in the books and it saw the return of longtime star Satoshi Kojima in the main event.
The show centred around the return of Satoshi Kojima and the rest of the Third Generation group. The event was dubbed Blue Justice VIII, as a nod to group leader Yuji Nagata and it began with Nagata coming out with a bottle of champagne. The match was the returning Satoshi Kojima, Hiroyoshi Tenzan, Manabu Nakanishi, and Yuji Nagata defeating Togi Makabe, Tomoaki Honma, Juice Robinson, and David Finlay. This was Kojima’s first match since tearing his ACL against CMLL star Rush during the FantasticaMania tour in January.
The rest of the card featured a series of tag matches as is normal for most New Japan shows of this level. Most of which were designed to build interest in the main events of the upcoming Destruction shows. The three Destruction shows will feature main events of IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega defending against Tomohiro Ishii, Tetsuya Naito vs. Minoru Suzuki, and Kazuchika Okada challenging Hiroshi Tanahashi for the Tokyo Dome IWGP Heavyweight Championship Challenge Rights Certificate.
