Chris Jericho Vs. Tetsuya Naito Wrestle Kingdom 13 Match Gets New Stipulation

By Daniel Yanofsky

During the final press conference before Wrestle Kingdom 13, known as Fan Fiesta, a twist was added to an already heated match.

In the above video, Tetsuya Naito and Chris Jericho agreed to have a no disqualification match for Jericho's IWGP Intercontinental Title. After Jericho initially requested the match, Naito wouldn't give in. After finally agreeing, the two signed the new contract.

Jericho then attacked Naito, powerbombing him through a table before saying he'd end his career inside the Tokyo Dome.
