NJPW Summer Struggle Results (8/8) NEVER 6-Man Tag Finals Set

New Japan Pro-Wrestling continued their Summer Struggle tour on Saturday. The event was headlined by the semi-finals of the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Title Tournament, with both teams from CHAOS advancing to the finals of the tournament.

The night was an emotional one for perennial underdog YOSHI-HASHI, who picked up the win for his team and is just one more match away from winning his first championship in his 12-year professional wrestling career. YOSHI-HASHI, Hirooki Goto & Tomohiro Ishii will face stablemates Kazuchika Okada, SHO & Toru Yano on Sunday for the vacant six-man belts.
