New Stables:</p><p>
Rollins Wrecking Crew: I selected Seth Rollins as my user character and had him attack Hirooki Goto(NEVER Openweight champ) at New Years Dash. He then debuted a new stable called the Rollins Wrecking Crew, consisting of Dolph Ziggler, Ryan Reeves, Austin Aries and Alex Shelley. This is a group of stars who feel they have been held down everywhere they go and are no longer following a system of rules. </p><p> </p><p>
Liger 2k: I wanted to get Liger away from Tiger Mask and try to job Tiger Mask out due to his poor personality, so I have Liger create a stable of Young Lions in the Junior division that he plans to help grow as his last task of his career. </p><p> </p><p>
Main story currently is Jericho wanting Okada(IWGP Heavyweight Champion) but being told he must win The New Japan Cup to earn a shot. I plan to have Jericho win in the finals over John Hennigan, who will have a historically easy path to the finals compared to Chris Jericho having to beat Omega, Naito and Ishii. The plan is to have Jericho defeat Okada, win the rematch and then drop the title to Omega, who earns a shot having already beaten Jericho at WK12. John Hennigan basically waltzing into the finals is going to be brewed into some kind of story but not quite sure how, seeing as he doesn't have quite the popularity as Jericho.</p><p> </p><p>
I raised Jay Whites star quality to 68 because I foresee him being a pretty big star in New Japan. I am currently building him to feud with Omega until Omega forfeits the US title to challenge for the IWGP Heavyweight title. Then I will run an 8 man single elimination tournament and crown Jay White as the champ.</p><p> </p><p>
Bullet Club for the most part is seeing no changes, yet. </p><p> </p><p>
Minoru Suzuki is currently falling into a losing streak along with the rest of Suzuki-Gun performing terribly. I want to have this lead to Suzuki leaving for a few months and coming back with a darker character, and I want to bring in a new face for him to control and have the fortunes of the group turn around. Haven't figured out who this new character will be, awaiting WWE contracts to expire, and scouting other talents. Thing Dungeon of Doom, but not cartoonish.</p><p> </p><p>
Moon-pushing Kota Ibushi, who I will have defeat Kushida in a year long feud over the Jr. heavyweight title where they draw and eventually Hiromu wins the title off of Ibushi at WK13 or the event after that. I considered putting Ibushi in the heavyweight division but I felt the heavyweight division had enough contenders that Ibushi would be jobbing, so this is clearly the best place for him. </p><p> </p><p>
Profits have been great so I have been able to sign a lot of names and lock up some of my major talents to written contracts. Hoping the financial success continues... Anticipating Shibata's return, he is scheduled back first day of 2019. I plan to have him attack the world champion at WK13, which I currently have no clue who that will be.</p><p> </p><p>
I do want to expand into other regions but finding a viable way to do so profitably is the issue. I am thinking I might have to launch a temporary brand split to have a group of workers tour there while the rest run a Japan tour.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p>
Some more tidbits...</p><p> </p><p>
I'm thinking of having Tanahashi turn his back on NJPW entirely. We saw him in a couple matches vs Okada use underhanded tactics and be a little sinister, but after being booed numerous times, maybe it's time Tanahashi pulls a Hogan and betrays his fans. I would have Tanahashi either join Chaos and befriend Okada or have Okada and Tanahashi form their own faction, both leaving their groups behind. Kazuchika Okadas reason for forming a new stable with Tanahashi could be he knew Chaos wouldn't accept Hiroshi as a member so he had to leave and form a new stable, signifying his partnership with Tanahashi being more important than the legacy he leaves behind with Chaos.</p>
