IWGP Tag Team Championship
Originally it was announced that at Destruction in Okayama, IWGP Tag Team Champions Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson would be taking on Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Satoshi Kojima in a non-title match. However, when Kojima pinned Gallows in an eight-man tag team match on the September 4 "Road to Destruction" event, he and Tenzan made a challenge for a title match. The following day, NJPW announced that the match would now be contested for the IWGP Tag Team Championship. The match marked Tenzan and Kojima's first shot at the IWGP Tag Team Championship since November 2013.
