Just Five Guys at full strength; new member to be revealed at Ryogoku

Six man tag added to Monday October 9

In the middle of a difficult tour for the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion SANADA, HOUSE OF TORTURE have been piling on the pressure physically and mentally. in Kobe last week, that included stealing away Heel Master Yoshinobu Kanemaru into the group, rendering Just Five Guys, just four. Adding in Taichi’s leave of absence owing to a state of shock at his best friend’s betrayal, and it seemed as if SANADA will be heading into a five on three disadvantage in Ryogoku’s Lumberjack Match main event October 9.

Things started to turn on Saturday September 30 though, as Taichi stormed back to the ring and declared himself active for the remainder of the tour. H.O.T sought retribution with an attack to SANBADA before October 1’s event got underway in Korakuen Hall, but that only served to anger the champion SANADA and his crew. After a cathartic beat down of HOUSE OF TORTURE later in the night, SANADA would declare that Just Four Guys was finished, but that five guys would be in force at Ryogoku Sumo Hall.

Now, in advance of the lumberjack main event, the opening match at Destruction in Ryogoku will see six man action, and the first appearance of this new member. Just who will the fifth man be? Find out live in English on NJPW World!
