Ring of Honor had announced Rocky Romero and now they have announced the tag team he has been associated with as of late. Roppongi 3k will be with Ring of Honor during the tour for all four events.

The announcement came on Twitter and ROHWrestling.com. The following is an excerpt from the press release on the Ring of Honor website.

Sho and Yoh, Roppongi 3K, make their Ring of Honor return in Lowell, MA as part of the War of the Worlds Tour! The team spent much of 2016 and 2017 on a learning excursion in the United States with ROH and return nearly a year after achieving several career milestones and becoming one of the best teams in the world!

Taken under the wing of Rocky Romero and joining the dominant group known as CHAOS in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, Sho and Yoh were revealed as the mystery team that Romero had promised at NJPW’s October 2017 event King of Pro Wrestling and captured their first IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Championship from Funky Future! The next month, the duo proved that being under the CHAOS umbrella had helped accent their international travel to CMLL and ROH and take them to the next level when they won the 2017 Super Jr. Tag League Tournament, defeating Super 69 in the Finals!

Roppongi 3K have taken it to a new level in 2018, capturing their second IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Championships from the Young Bucks at the New Beginning in Sapporo and, by doing so, became just the 12th team in the 20-year history of the hotly-contested championships to hold them twice! The duo returns to ROH with a new confidence and nearly a year’s worth of high level successes under their belts.

Besides Romero and Roppongi 3k, the tour will also feature Jay White, Jushin Liger, and the members of Los Ingobernables de Japon including Tetsuya Naito.
