Pro Wrestling NOAH’s N-1 Victory tournament concluded Sunday with a sold-out show at Korakuen Hall as the final four participants squared off.
The final match came down to 2020 N-1 winner Katsuhiko Nakajima and his Kongo stablemate Kenoh after each were victorious earlier in the night in their respective semi-final matches.
For the second year in a row, Nakajima won the tournament to secure a GHC Championship match with Naomichi Marufuji next Sunday in Osaka.
