IMPACT Wrestling has announced a thrilling trio to take on Hiroshi Tanahashi, Tomohiro Ishii, and Kazuchika Okada in a 6-man dream match at Destruction in Ryogoku on October 9. After successfully defending their championship gold in Korakuen last week, the three champions are ready to put their titles on the line against a formidable team from IMPACT.
Tanahashi, who recently wrestled IMPACT World Champion Alex Shelley at Multiverse United 2, made a direct appeal to IMPACT Wrestling for a chance to seek revenge on his defeat. Shelley, along with his Motor City Machineguns partner Chris Sabin, quickly stepped up to the challenge. Both Sabin and Shelley have shown great hospitality to Tanahashi and Okada during their previous excursions to IMPACT, and now they are reunited in competition against the Ace and Rainmaker.
