Predicting all the 16 teams for NJPW: World Tag League 2018

#11 Great Bash Heel

Speaking of experienced tag teams, how could one miss out on the veteran duo of Togi Makabe and Tomoaki Honma? Having won the World Tag League on two back-to-back occasions in 2015 and 2016, The Great Bash Heel pretty much knows all about the 'getting the job done when it matters the most'.

Much like fellow veterans Tencozy, GBH is currently also going through a similar path after the recent return of Honma, who came back from injury just a several weeks ago. And after having missed out on last year's World Tag League, the duo of Honma and Makabe will look forward to adding another major accomplishment to their list of achievements and eventually win the IWGP Tag Team Championships at Wrestle Kingdom 13.
