The options for the stipulations of the next KOPW 2022 match have been provided by Taichi and Shingo Takagi.
The two are set to meet for the KOPW 2022 title this Monday when New Japan returns to Hiroshima.
In the spirit of the concept, both participants have presented their match stipulation with an ongoing Twitter poll that will be run until this weekend.
From the NJPW website:
Taichi has suggested a 30 Count Match. In this match, multiple falls will see a cumulative count from the referee. The winner is the wrestler who can get a combined 30 count on their opponent. Strategy and stamina will come to the fore in this punishing match style.
Takagi meanwhile has brought his own spin on a multiple falls match, suggesting a Takagi Style Three Falls Match. In this match, the first to three falls is the winner, but rather than being best three out of five, a competitor must get first a one count, then a two count, and then three. This will likely see a hard pace being set in the opening as both men vie to get the early one counts, before will to win really comes to the fore for the third fall.
As of Wednesday morning, Taichi’s choice is leading with over 53 percent of the votes.
