For the fifth time during their tenure as a duo, SHO and YOH of Roppongi 3K have captured the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Titles.
Their win occurred at NJPW’s Sakura Genesis event where they took on the then-champions, Yoshinobu Kanemaru and reigning IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion El Desperado. In March, YOH made his return to New Japan Pro-Wrestling after being on the shelf since the Summer of 2020 with a torn ACL. Upon his return, he immediately threw he and SHO’s names onto the challengers list for the Junior Tag Team Titles.
