🔥 OPENWEIGHT QUALIFIER | DON FALE VS SEAN TOHI 🔥

The pursuit of the inaugural NJPW TAMASHII Openweight Championship brings DON FALE and SEAN TOHI face-to-face at Road to First Reign on August 29.

A 16-year NJPW veteran, Don Fale spent years passing on his international experience at the NZ Dojo, where second-generation wrestler Sean Tohi trained under his guidance. Now, Tohi must stand across the ring from his mentor with a championship opportunity at stake, while The Don looks to give his pupil his biggest lesson yet.

Both men come from the same wrestling family tree, but on August 29, lineage is set aside for the quest to advance to FIRST REIGN at the Māngere Arts Centre on October 10, where the first-ever NJPW TAMASHII Openweight Champion will be crowned.
