The titles were vacated and new champions will be crowned on 12/24. 

Dragongate’s Open the Twin Gate Championships were being held by Dragon Dia and Yuki Yoshioka. Yoshioka and Dia won the titles in November and did not get the opportunity to defend the belts.

Yoshioka suffered an injury and as a result, him and Dia had to relinquish the titles. Dia handed the belts over and assured fans that when Yoshioka recovers, they’ll be back in the Open the Twin Gate Title mix. 

New champions are going to be crowned on December 24th at Dragongate’s show in Fukuoka. Kota Minoura is teaming with Ben-K to take on NOAH’s Alejandro and two-time GHC Heavyweight Champion Kaito Kiyomiya. 

Korakuen Hall hosted the 12/19 Dragongate show and here are the results:
