WWE had a live event in Tokyo early this morning, which featured Asuka and Kairi Sane defeat the IIconics to earn a shot at the Women’s tag team titles. The event took place at Ryogoku Kokugikan (Sumo Hall). Here are results, via Wrestling With Demons:

Hisashi Shinma was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Legacy Wing. He was the figurehead WWF President from the late 1970s to early 1980s. He was involved in the controversial overturning of Bob Backlund winning the WWF Title back against Antonio Inoki in Tokyo, Japan on Dec. 6, 1979 after Tiger Jeet Singh attacked Inoki outside the ring before the finish.

U.S. Champion Ricochet pinned Cesaro.

Braun Strowman pinned Bobby Roode after a powerslam. Roode attacked Strowman after and set up a table in the ring but of course Strowman powerslammed him through it.

Asuka and Kairi Sane beat WWE Tag Team Champions Peyton Royce and Billie Kay when Sane pinned Royce after the insane elbow as Asuka knocked Kay off of the ring with a hip attack. This was the exact same finish as the show in Singapore yesterday. Asuka and Sane earned a future tag titles shot with this win.
