New IWGP Tag Team Champions were crowned on Saturday in Hiroshima.

In the main event of NJPW Wrestling Redzone, Callum Newman & Great-O-Khan defeated Hirooki Goto and YOSHI-HASHI to win the vacated titles.

Newman hit the Prince’s Curse on YOSHI-HASHI to score the win.

The tag titles had been abruptly vacated on April 14th after the departure of Jeff Cobb from the promotion. The win makes O-Khan a double champion, also holding the NJPW World TV Title.

After the match, the new champions were challenged by Tomohiro Ishii and Taichi. O-Khan accepted on behalf of his team.
