Pro Wrestling NOAH runs Day 2 of the NEO Global Tag League today in Osaka. Today features the start of Block B with 3 matches featuring the 6 participating teams in the block. The likely main event will be Naomichi Marufuji & Kenoh vs. OZAWA & Tadasuke.

Today’s event will be held at Umeda Sky Building Stellar Hall in Osaka and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will likely be no commentary. There are 8 matches planned so the running time may depend in part on if there’s an intermission, but I’m thinking it’ll be around 2 1/2 hours.

Eita vs. Midori Takahashi
Kaito Kiyomiya, Harutoki, Alejanfro & Black Menso-re vs. Masa Kitamiya, Takashi Sugiura, Kai Fujimura & Jon Masaoka

Toe (fractured). Out indefinitely but at least 2 weeks-then she’ll know if surgery is needed which would mean out a longer time.

Pro Wrestling NOAH today announced the full field for the next tournament, the NEO GLOBAL TAG LEAGUE, coming up in about 2 weeks. This will be a round-robin format tournament with 2 blocks of 6 teams and standard scoring, with the winners of each block advancing to the Finals. Tiebreaker if needed will be head-to-head result.

Participating teams:
Block A: Tetsuya Naito & BUSHI, Kaito Kiyomiya & Harutoki, Tetsuya Endo & HAYATA, Katl Anderson & Doc Gallows, Kid Lykos 1 & 2, Masa Kitamiya & Takashi Sugiura
Block B: Naomichi Marufuji & Kenoh, Yoshiki Inamura & Stallion Rogers, Kazuyuki Fujita & Mohammed Yone, KENTA & Katsumi Inahata, Manabu Soya & Yuki Iino, OZAWA & Tadasuke

On paper Block A looks tough to call, I don’t see the Lykoses having a chance but anyone else can win. Block B looks 50-50 between Marufuji/Kenoh, Soya/Iino and OZAWA/Tadasuke. I would expect the winners to get a GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Championship match afterwards unless Naito/BUSHI win as the current champions.

The tournament begins on 5/23 at Kyoto KBS Hall in Kyoto and runs over 12 events through 6/16 (Finals at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo). All events will be streamed LIVE and on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE but 6/16 is listed as an ABEMA live broadcast so we should get an English-only UNIVERSE stream there.

Pro Wrestling NOAH wraps up their busy Golden Week today with one more event in Tokyo, another Legacy Rise 2026 event. There isn’t much to preview because the entire card will not be announced in advance with one exception-the only confirmed match for today is GHC National Champion Alpha Wolf vs. Naomichi Marufuji for the title. Otherwise it’s wait and see.

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in English Only. This will be a live & exclusive ABEMA broadcast in Japan, which will be available on demand in Japanese shortly after the event. Since we know of just one match so far it’s impossible to really predict much.

Today’s lineup:
GHC National Champion Alpha Wolf vs. Naomichi Marufuji for the title
All other matches TBA and will not be announced until the event
