NJPW Introducing New Championship

NJPW

NJPW has announced a new championship to be awarded at their upcoming show for the TAMASHII brand on July 4, in New Zealand.

In an official statement, NJPW announced that the first TAMASHII Tag Team Champions will be determined at NJPW TAMASHII Cold War in a one-night tournament.

Per NJPW:

NJPW TAMASHII’s return to Mangere on July 4 at Cold War will see extra stakes added with the creation of the TAMASHII Tag Team Championships.

In the rich tradition of tag team wrestling in Oceania, TAMASHII’s teams have been the cornerstone of the brand since its inception, with the Pretty Boys, Ungrateful 1’s, Jungle Fury and more being joined recently by the returning Youngblood, Oskar Leube and Yuto Nakashima as they continue their international excursions.

With competition in the tag ranks only intensifying, TAMASHII has now created titles to cement excellence in the brand. The first ever TAMASHII Championships, the inaugural champions will be decided through a one-night tournament set to bring red-hot action to the New Zealand midwinter!

The statement was accompanied by a photo of the new TAMASHII Tag Team Championship belt, which can be seen below this news story.

NJPW Cold War takes place on July 4 at the Māngere Arts Centre in Auckland, New Zealand.

AEW and NJPW will crossover once again at Forbidden Door on August 24 in London, England.

The show will take place at The O2 Arena, marking the company’s first PPV return since AEW All In in August 2024 at Wembley Stadium.
