All Elite Wrestling’s newest title is the All-Atlantic Championship. There is going to be a four-way at Forbidden Door on June 26th to crown the first-ever champion. That match field currently consists of PAC, Miro and the latest addition, Tomohiro Ishii.

Ishii scored a win over Clark Connors at today’s New Japan Road show to secure his spot in the match. The final spot will be determined on the 6/22 AEW Dynamite when Malakai Black takes on Penta Oscuro.

The 6/21 New Japan Road event was headlined by 2022 Best of the Super Juniors winner Hiromu Takahashi challenging Taiji Ishimori for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship. Takahashi was unsuccessful in his attempt to win his fifth Junior Heavyweight Title in New Japan. Here are the complete results from the show:
