Capital Collision (2023)

Wrestlers from NJPW's partner promotions, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Impact Wrestling, also appeared on the card. This was the second event to be held under the Capital Collision name.
Nine matches were contested at the event, including one on the pre-show. In the main event, Aussie Open (Mark Davis and Kyle Fletcher) defeated defending champions the Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) and the Dream Team (Kazuchika Okada and Hiroshi Tanahashi) to win the Strong Openweight Tag Team Championship. In another prominent match, Kenta successfully defended the Strong Openweight Championship against Eddie Edwards.
In October 2019, NJPW announced their expansion into the United States with their new American division, New Japan Pro-Wrestling of America (NJoA). On July 31, 2020, NJPW announced a new weekly series titled NJPW Strong; the series would be produced by NJoA. On January 30, 2023, NJPW announced that all of the promotion's future American events would be branded under the "Strong" name. Beginning with Battle in the Valley on February 18, the NJoA PPVs began airing as NJPW Strong Live; these PPV events will later air on NJPW World as part of the NJPW Strong on Demand series.
