ROH has partnered with NJPW for War of the Worlds every year since 2014. The NJPW wrestlers who will be taking part in this year’s shows haven’t been revealed yet.
Supercard of Honor XIV on April 4 will also feature some involvement from NJPW wrestlers, including Jay White facing Marty Scurll, KENTA & Taiji Ishimori teaming against Jeff Cobb & Dan Maff, and Will Ospreay, Rocky Romero & Amazing Red challenging Bandido, Flamita & Rey Horus for the ROH Six-Man Tag Team titles.
ROH and NJPW have also traditionally partnered together for ROH’s Global Wars events, though last year saw ROH team with CMLL for Global Wars Espectacular.
