New Japan Pro-Wrestling saw five championships switch hands during its Dominion event on June 14 in Osaka-jo Hall. AEW star Andrade El Idolo lost the IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship in a three-way match. Several other titleholders were dethroned across the card.

Aaron Wolf captured the NEVER Openweight Championship from Ren Narita in the opening title match. Great-O-Khan and Henare then defeated Oskar and Yuto-Ice to win the IWGP Tag Team Championship.

Shota Umino pinned Andrade El Idolo after 16 minutes to claim the IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship in a three-way bout also involving Drilla Moloney. Yoh defeated Douki to take the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Title.

In the main event Yota Tsuji defeated Callum Newman to regain the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. Konosuke Takeshita retained the NJPW World Television Championship against Sanada earlier on the show.

Gabe Kidd returned after an injury absence and attacked Umino following the Global title match. Takeshita and Kidd are both scheduled to compete for AEW in the upcoming G1 Climax tournament that begins July 11.

Initial reactions on X focus on Shota Umino winning the IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship from Andrade in a three-way match at NJPW Dominion 2026. Fans express surprise at Andrade's short reign and criticize booking decisions, while some share match ratings and highlight the title change.

Andrade Mercia remains the champion for a while, this decision is horrible, that's why NJPW is like this and this doesn't help at all. Andrade is someone known worldwide and helped NJPW. pic.twitter.com/qtUtK0EycQ

Alright, Tsuji couldn’t lose the Global title while he still had the IWGP, so we got the Callum Newman debacle as a transition in order for Tsuji to lose the Global to Andrade, who was also a transition so Tsuji didn’t have to drop it to Shota
