Tetsuya Naito Is Once Again Double Champion At NJPW Summer Struggle In Jingu

By Joshua Gagnon

Tetsuya Naito won the IWGP Heavyweight and Intercontinental Championships against EVIL at today's NJPW Summer Struggle in Jingu. With Dick Togo in EVIL's corner, the champion tried every cheap tactic (lowblows, chairshots, and run-ins) to keep his title, but Naito was able to get some help from his LIJ stablemates to even things out.
