YOH vs. Robbie Eagles for IWGP Junior Heavyweight Title Official For NJPW King of Pro-Wrestling 2026

We have an updated card for NJPW King of Pro-Wrestling 2026 following the conclusion of Night Two of the Road to the namesake event, with another high-stakes match being made official.

As noted, YOH was confronted by Robbie Eagles following his successful defense of the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship against Robbie X at Road to King of Pro-Wrestling Night Two on Wednesday.

YOH initially refused to accept the challenge for the October 12 King of Pro-Wrestling event, but he ultimately did when Eagles put him in an Ankle Lock.

The 11th annual NJPW King of Pro-Wrestling will take place at Ryōgoku Kokugikan in Tokyo, Japan, this coming Monday. The event will feature AEW World Champion Will Ospreay, who will team with his United Empire mates (Henare and Great-O-Khan) to defend the NEVER Openweight Six-Man Tag Team Championship against The Knockout Brothers and Jeff Cobb.

Below is the updated lineup:

-> NEVER Openweight Six-Man Tag Team Championship Match: United Empire (Will Ospreay, HENARE & Great-O-Khan) [c] vs. Knockout Brothers (OSKAR & Yuto-Ice) & Jeff Cobb
