► «Destruction in Kobe 2025»
The event will take place on September 28 at the Kobe World Hall and so far two championship struggles and three special duels have been confirmed.
One of these special struggle is the one that Hiroshi Tanahashi and Great-O-Khan will hold. Tanahashi continues with his way to his farewell and this time he decided to face that of United Empire, who seeks to stay in the star planes and knows that he will get it if he dominates the ACE.
Yuto Nakashima and the German Oskar Leube are back after 19 months of preparation trip. They return as a pair that will be known as Knockout Brothers (Kob) and their first objective is the IWGP couples championship, which is why they challenged Taichi and Volume Ishii, the reigning monarchs, who will make their first defense.
Duels between non -affiliates and War Dogs begin, with Hiromu Takahashi resuming his long rivalry with Taiji Ishimori. Hiromu has had great activity during the summer and has two important starting fighting for the coming weeks. After challenging Kyle Fletcher for the TNT championship in Forbidden Door, Hiromu will focus his attention on the Noah GHC Championship, currently in the hands of Yo-Hey, so it is possible that he arrives in Kobe as a double champion.
Another shock between non-affiliates and War Dogs will have Yota Tsuji and David Finlay as protagonists who will be measured again on a ring after five previous occasions with a 3-2 balance favorable to Finlay.
The IWGP World Weight Championship will get into play when Shingo Takagi challenges Gabe Kidd. This will be the stellar battle of the event, with Takagi fulfilling his desire to face Kidd, a clash that was aware of the G1 Climax after the retirement of Kidd due to injury. Now both will be confronted, with Shingo defending the flag of non -affiliates and Gabe Kidd representing War Dogs.
