Hiromu Takahashi outsmarted The House of Torture on Night 12 of World Tag League. In the main event it was LIJ (Tetsuya Naito and Hiromu Takahashi) versus The House of Torture (Evil and Ren Narita). Pretending to turn on his LIJ partner Tetsuya Naito, Hiromu super kicked him in the face after taking away Narita’s push-up bar from him. It was all a big ruse though as Naito pinned Narita with Destino for the win. Hiromu apologized to Naito and explained his strategy after the match was over. The IWGP Tag Team Champions, United Empire’s The Great-O-Khan and Henare, now sit at the top of B Block with 10 points.
