3
Six matches are officially announced for NJPW Dominion 2025 on June 15 at Osaka-Jo Hall, with more potentially being added as the event approaches.
IWGP World Heavyweight Championship
Hirooki Goto (c) vs. Shingo Takagi
After a controversial double pin at NJPW Resurgence in Ontario, California, Goto retained his championship against Zack Sabre Jr. Now, Shingo Takagi steps up as the next challenger to the “Goto Revolution.”
IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship
Yota Tsuji (c) vs. Gabe Kidd
(A highly anticipated rematch after their previous classic ended in a double knockout)
IWGP Tag Team Championship
United Empire (Callum Newman & Great-O-Khan) (c) vs. Tomohiro Ishii & Taichi
Dog Collar Chain Deathmatch
David Finlay vs. EVIL
NEVER Openweight Championship
Konosuke Takeshita (c) vs. Boltin Oleg
This rubber match follows their encounter at New Beginning in Osaka, where Takeshita emerged victorious. However, Oleg previously defeated Takeshita during last year’s G1 Climax, making this a crucial deciding bout between the two powerhouses.
Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Yuya Uemura
Part of Tanahashi’s retirement tour, this match has been billed as a “Connection” bout between the veteran “Genius of the Sun” and Uemura, who many consider the “sun” of the next generation. It could represent the passing of a torch—or Tanahashi teaching the rising “Heat Storm” a valuable lesson.
