New Japan Pro Wrestling aired their “Invasion Attack 2016” event on the New Japan World service on Saturday night from Tokyo, Japan. Here are the results:
- Bullet Club’s Bad Luck Fale & Yujiro Takahashi beat Ryusuke Taguchi & Juice Robinson.
- Kojima & Jushin Liger & Yuji Nagata beat Sakuraba & YOSHI-HASHI & Toru Yano in a six-man tag match.
- ROH TV champion Tomohiro Ishii & Hirooki Goto beat EVIL & BUSHI.
- RPG Vice (Rocky Romero & Baretta) beat IWGP Jr. Hvt. tag champions Matt Sydal & Ricochet to capture the IWGP Jr. Hvt. Tag Titles.
- IWGP Jr. Hvt. champion KUSHIDA beat Will Ospreay to retain the IWGP Jr. Hvt. Title.
- Tanahashi & Yoshi Tatsu & Michael Elgin beat NEVER Openweight six-man tag champions Bullet Club (Kenny Omega & Young Bucks) to capture the NEVER Openweight Six-man Tag Titles.
- NEVER Openweight champion Shibata beat Tenzan to retain the NEVER Openweight Title.
- Bullet Club’s Tama Tonga & Tanga Roa beat IWGP World tag champions Honma & Togi Makabe to capture the IWGP World Tag Titles.
- New Japan Cup winner Naito beat IWGP World Hvt. champion Kazuchika Okada to capture the IWGP World Hvt. Title.
After the match, Naito’s faction beat down Okada until CHAOS members Ishii and Goto sent them out of the ring. While Okada was helped to the back, Naito started to get in the ring for his title presentation, but Ishii stood in his way. Lots of staring back and forth, with Ishii not letting Naito into the ring. But Ishii eventually gave way leading to Naito kicking him from behind. Naito got his title belt and trophy, and cut a promo thanking the fans for their support very insincerely. He basically said his is an unstoppable faction taking over New Japan. Naito then threw down the title belt and left the ring, which seemed to disconcert the crowd, perhaps showing he’s not that interested in the title per se, but the position of power he has grabbed to make his faction stronger.
