All Japan held a press signing for the upcoming title defenses set for tomorrow's show at Korakuen.

The main of which will feature the Asia Tag belts in defense as Yuko Miyamoto & Isami Kodaka defend against the team of Takao Omori and HEAT-UP's Kazuhiro Tamura. Now this match might seem odd on paper, but there is a history between all these men going back to 10 years ago in ZERO1. During that time Takao Omori was competing in ZERO1-MAX (now just ZERO1) as he formed a unit known as the "Axe Bombers" along with Miyamoto, Isami, Tamura, and 726 (Natsuru). Omori became a head figure for all of the younger rookies at the time and helped shape each of them to their current status. Both Isami and Miyamoto stated that this is proving point to not only themselves but to Omori as well. Back then they were only rookies and have only since gone to stand at the highest ranks of the indie promotions, but now in Alll Japan they look to prove they can stand tall here as well.

The same could be said for Tamura who looks to solidify his own place along with his former teacher. Omori praised the champion team for coming this far and for trying to bring new life to the Asia Tag belts by competing with them outside of the All Japan. Though he acknowledged the champions aspirations for a strong defense record, but if they wish to do that they will have to go through him in the process. He stated that this match is indeed 10 years in the making and he knows to expect a strong performance from everyone involved including himself.

Below is the announced card at this time...
