By: Lewis Carlan

The Machida City General Gymnasium was the site for the 3rd night of New Japan Pro-Wrestling World Tag League 2025 action. The A Block took center stage with a series of tournament bouts as 1,195 fans were in attendance for the event.

The featured bout saw the team of Yota Tsuji & Gabe Kidd take on EVIL and his partner Don Fale. All four men brawled on the outside prior to the start of the match which set the tone for the bout.

Tsuji & Kidd earned their first two points of the tournament after hitting a War Blaster on Fale to end the bout at the 13:55 mark.

In other action, Boltin Oleg & Toru Yano faced Satoshi Kojima & Taichi. Both teams entered the match with 1-0 records as each hoped to remain unbeaten in the tournament.

Oleg & Yano emerged victorious in just over 11 minutes after Oleg hit his Kamikaze finisher on Kojima. The win gave Oleg and Yano 4 points and placed them in sole possession of first place in the A Block.
