– Samoa Joe and Magnus are the new GHC Tag Team Champions for Japanese promotion Pro Wrestling Noah. They captured the belts Sunday in Tokyo from Akitoshi Saito and Jun Akiyama, ending their seventh-month reign.
Magnus wrote on Twitter, “New GHC/ Pro-Wrestling NOAH World Tag Team Champions… @SamoaJoe and yours truly. Ryogoku Sumo Hall Tokyo, it was an honor!”
Christopher Daniels also competed at the event, NOAH Great Voyage, losing to GHC Junior Heavyweight Champion Yoshinobu Kanemaru.
– Adam Pearce won the NWA World Title from Colt Cabana Saturday night at Metro Pro Wrestling show in Kansas City. The match was the fourth in their “Seven Levels of Hate” series and had the stipulation of being a two out of three falls match. A stipulation was in place that if Pearce had lost, his NWA career would have been over.
The next match has not yet been announced. Pearce’s title win is the first time the NWA World Title has changed hands in Kansas City, MO since Ric Flair beat Dusty Rhodes for the belt in 1981.
