During the final press conference before Wrestle Kingdom 13, known as Fan Fiesta, a twist was added to an already heated match.
In the video below, IWGP Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho & Tetsuya Naito agreed to have a No DQ Match for Jericho’s IWGP Intercontinental Title. After Jericho initially requested the match, Naito wouldn’t give in. After finally agreeing, the two signed the new contract. Jericho then attacked Naito, powerbombing him through a table before saying that he would end his career inside The Tokyo Dome.
