The two began their tour of Japan after they were written off NXT on last weekâ€s show, having been taken out by the returning OTM.
NOAH has seen an uptick of NXT talent on their cards in the last month. Charlie Dempsey and Harlem Lewis made their debut back on October 4 in Nagoya, facing each other in a singles match. Most recently, they teamed with Yoshiki Inamura to defeat KAYATA, KENTA, and Ulka Sasaki on October 21. Inamura has recently made his return to Japan after spending most of the year wrestling on NXT television.
