Omega vs. Alpha. Jericho vs. Omega.
This is undoubtedly one of the most highly anticipated matches in the past decade, let alone this year in the professional wrestling industry.
The match will now be a no disqualification match between the two men and will take place on January 4 at the Tokyo Dome.
Jericho will be competing for Omega’s IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship, which Omega won earlier this year and is the inaugural Champion.
Omega reacted to the change on Twitter:
No DQ isn’t what I wanted, but it’s what we both need in order to settle this… #AlphaVsOmega https://t.co/5G9ogJULoC
