Angel de Oro, Niebla Roja Win NJPW Strong Tag Titles
Angel de Oro and Niebla Roja captured the NJPW Strong Openweight Tag Team Championships on November 14, 2025, defeating defending champions TJP and Templario in the main event of a Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre event at Arena Mexico in Mexico City.
The 15-minute match featured intense exchanges of submission holds between the teams. Angel de Oro secured the victory by applying his Campana Swinging Hold on Templario, forcing a submission. The win marked the end of TJP and Templario's 189-day reign, which began in May 2025 at NJPW Resurgence. There, they defeated Royce Isaacs and Jorel Nelson of the World Class Wrecking Crew in a 13-minute bout to claim the titles. During their championship run, the United Empire duo made three successful defenses, all occurring at CMLL events in Mexico, as NJPW did not hold shows in the United States later in the year.
With the triumph, Angel de Oro and Niebla Roja now hold dual accolades. They have been the CMLL World Tag Team Champions since January 2022, accumulating over 1,392 days as titleholders. After the match, TJP raised the hands of the new champions as they posed with the belts. However, Templario appeared to suffer a right leg injury...
