NJPW 'Road To Power Struggle' Results (10/25): Super Junior Tag Tourney Continues With Ricochet
NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING 'ROAD TO POWER STRUGGLE'
Tuesday October 25th 2016
Toyoyashi Gymnasium In Aichi, Japan
Attendance- 900
This event was scheduled to be just a standard date on The Road To Power Struggle tour for New Japan. All these events feature talents from all over the world. Mexico, The United States and abroad. Talents from CMLL, ROH, NOAH and obviously New Japan Pro Wrestling. From time to time, The outside talents will have visa issues that will force New Japan to reshuffle their deck. So to speak.... This is the case here as Ricochet was unable to be a part of the opening event. His 1st round Super Junior tournament match was re-scheduled for today. This event is not currently scheduled to be on New Japan's streaming service, New Japan World. That could change in the future.
