One day before Wrestle Kingdom 13, NJPW announced that the IWGP Intercontinental Championship match between champion Chris Jericho and challenger Tetsuya Naito will now be under no disqualification rules.

Jericho defeated Naito last year for the IC strap at Dominion and has been escaping the former champion’s grasp throughout the course of 2018. The No DQ stipulation further perpetuates the grudge that Jericho & Naito has cultivated between one another. Jericho defeated EVIL via submission at NJPW Power Struggle, but Jericho v. Naito 2 will now be the land of the lawless.
