The World’s Strongest Tag Determination League has started, and Katsuhiko Nakajima is already hating his partner Hokuto Omori for being weak. The Triple Crown Champion doesn’t have time for Omori, but at the same time, he can’t go through the league alone. That leaves him with no choice in the matter, and despite victory knocking at their door, Nakajima can’t seem to trust Omori, nor care for his well-being.
Nakajima and Omori’s relationship can be understood by watching the All Japan 15/11 show, and based on the report from PKDX: “Nakajima tore Omori’s shirt, elbowed him and punched him again for good measure. Then, he took Omori out of the ring.”
Despite this scene unfolding, the dysfunctional dynamic between Nakajima and Omori didn’t make Ryuki Honda and Yuma Anzai the winners of their Tag League encounter, as even with the numbers against them, the conflicted team left with their hands raised. After the match, Nakajima criticized Omori’s attire, and how he used a t-shirt to wrestle. Nakajima then sent Omori to train even more, and while this could be good advice from a veteran, Nakajima’s tone while saying it awakened feelings of despise from the Triple Crown holder.

As we said before, their conflicted dynamic didn’t stop them from defeating both Honda and Anzai this week, and also the team of Suwama and Hideki Suzuki last week. We could assume that Nakajima is carrying the team, but Omori has also done his part very well. Maybe Omori is looking to earn the champion’s respect, and he could do it by winning the Tag League.
