IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Shingo Takagi and BUSHI missed Sunday’s NJPW show due to both having fevers.
The promotion released a short statement stating they would not be participating in Sunday’s show in Shizuoka. They added that the two will undergo PCR testing.
Both were scheduled for the eight-man tag main event with Tetsuya Naito and SANADA against EVIL, Yujiro, Gedo & Dick Togo. Instead, they did a tag match lower on the card with Naito & SANADA over EVIL & Yujiro.
Here are the results from Sunday’s show with an announced crowd of 506 (Courtesy: Purolove.com):
