All-Japan continues the World’s Strongest Tag League today in Sendai with the third day. It’s still in the early stages and every team has only had one or two matches so far, today each of the 2 blocks have 2 matches scheduled. Block A has MUSASHI & Seiki Yoshioka vs. Makoto Oishi & Mike D. Vecchio while the main event will be the second block match of Jun & Rei Saito vs. Rising Hayato & Yuma Anzai. Block B matches will be Hikaru Sato & Yuko Miyamoto vs. Cyrus & Hartley Jackson and Ryuki Honda & Ren Ayabe vs. Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Seigo Tachibana. Non-tournament matches fill out the card.
Today’s event will be held at Yume Messe Miyagi in Sendai and can be watched LIVE on AJPW.TV. There will be no commentary. There will be an intermission at the halfway point of the card, so although it has only 6 matches that will stretch it out a little big. That and Kuroshio’s seemingly never-ending entrance antics. Even if every match went the distance the longest this event could go is 3 hours, with the intermission I’d anticipate the running time being roughly 2 1/4 hours.

Yuma Aoyagi, Suwama & Fuminori Abe vs. Hokuto Omori, Kumaarashi & Aizawa No. 1
