The 2025 NJPW Super Jr. Tag League is about to wrap up, with the A Block winners already determined after tonight’s show in Fukui. Here are the highlights of tonight’s show and what’s to come on B Block’s final day of competition on November 1st:
SHO & DOUKI Complete A Block Sweep
Reigning IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team champions SHO and DOUKI went undefeated to claim first place in the A Block and advance to the finals on November 3rd. They won against the team of YOH & Master Wato, who came in second in the block standings.
The House of Torture pair finished with 10 points to earn themselves a finals berth. Once again, they used the black mirror behind the referee’s back to steal the victory over YOH and Wato.
DOUKI will have a chance to add another accomplishment this year, after coming back from injury in June to win the tag titles with SHO, which he followed with taking the Jr. Heavyweight strap from El Desperado earlier this month.
Three Teams Battle for Finals Spot in B Block
Three teams will duke it out for the last finals spot in this year’s tournament in the B Block. Leading the pack is the undefeated pair of Ichiban Sweet Boys, Robbie Eagles, and Kosei Fujita with eight points.
Tied at six points are the Bullet Club War Dogs team of Taiji Ishimori and Robbie X, and Dragongate’s Yuki Yoshioka and KUSHIDA.
Eagles and Fujita have the easiest route, needing either a win or a draw this Saturday against Ishimori and X. On the other hand, the War Dogs pair needs to win, and for Yoshioka and KUSHIDA to lose, because they have the tiebreaker over them.
Yoshioka and KUSHIDA need to win against El Desperado and KUUKAI, and for the War Dogs to win as well, to force a three-way tie at eight points for a playoff match.
The tournament final on November 3rd will be held at Hiroshi Tanahashi’s homecoming show in Gifu. Meanwhile, Saturday’s show in Osaka will start at 5 p.m. JST/5 a.m. ET, streaming live on NJPW World.
