Not sure how much I like this card. Tanahashi I think doesn't need to main event anymore. Okada is way too huge for anything below IC/IWGP but shouldn't lose to Goto. Omega/Miyahara would be AMAZING to see. Takahashi/Ospreay just doesn't excite me anymore. WALTER is great. Happy to see him. He wouldve been fun against Goto. Sanada/WHIRO are young and would do real well to win a tag title. KENTA/Marufuji dont need titles, really.

Ishikawa/Ishii should be crazy fun too. I think its really just the NEVER/IWGP/Junior titles that bother me. Lot of fun matches outside of that. Some guys like Ibushi/KUSHIDA feel underutilized though.

Okada in the NEVER title picture?!

This is not how you treat the Ace!!

Bring back Gedo! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

I do like Tana being in the main event and think there is money in one more Tanahashi Dome main event, but it would be against Okada IMO to give one final encore for their GOAT story.

Naito vs. Tana should do just as well tho! Naito's pop in your game may be so far above the others to where you cannot deny the position.

Jon The GOAT · February 9, 2018

Not sure I like having the show rating at the top. Feels a bit spoilery.

Happy to see Kiyomiya win the rumble. Great kid. Great future. Feel bad for SHO & YOH losing the title but competition is healthy. Not surprised to see Ishikawa retain but I'm sure IRL that'd be a fun as heck brutal match. Would've loved seeing Suzuki or Sekimoto there instead. Cool to see the AJPW trio make it far in the gauntlet.

Predicting you have WHIRO leave LIJ after that loss and take on the Jay White mantel again. See if you can match his IRL performances?

Woo WALTER beating EVIL. I would LOVE to see WALTER as a future IWGP Heavyweight Champion. Dude is a worldbeater.

Either Ospreay's gotta go or he's gotta move on up. Really, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him leave for a year or more. Bigger fan of Takahashi anyways.

Happy to see Kento beat Kenny. Kento is amazing and I hope he main events a future WK.

HEEL GOTO! Poor Okada. What's next for him?

Not shocked at the amazing main event nor at the result. Naito >

Great show clearly. And its clear Okada is still a main eventer quality guy based off his match with Goto. Wonder what's next for him.

NJPW New Year Dash 2019

Kazuchika Okada & Tomohiro Ishii vs Shuji Ishikawa & Suwama: Would love to see Okada and Ishikawa go head to head. Okada needs momentum though.

Ospreay refused to take it but Kenny told him that if he changes his mind the offer is still on the table. </blockquote> <blockquote style="border: 2px solid #FFD700;"> <img alt="Juice%2BRobinson.png" data-src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DLUIzfnqx64/WlkLMw09mTI/AAAAAAAAB0A/Y71wNAI_ZgwIMrEb7MZG4ZBi3cUMALfOACK4BGAYYCw/s400/Juice%2BRobinson.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Kota%2BIbushi.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PTSDgyrv67A/Wgd2evaNT5I/AAAAAAAABto/UAR5AzfuZ9IWBPgom43pMk7vpBrzPkSigCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Kota%2BIbushi.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="KUSHIDA.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-huWTTbjD56M/WmMAcGDPZyI/AAAAAAAAB1w/BUmhuCD-1esOue1TRu1V3f1BQEOUYLtlgCK4BGAYYCw/s400/KUSHIDA.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Ryusuke%2BTaguchi.png" data-src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TMSh2EjsFD0/WeAxb_0qClI/AAAAAAAABnU/r6j_erZ_pAcZeTa40sr7DcpIuSRwYCf-ACK4BGAYYCw/s400/Ryusuke%2BTaguchi.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Satoshi%2BKojima.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zaAUZ2APpvY/WmMAcBGv1oI/AAAAAAAAB2A/jxde8Sec4dEdAl3v8y_Cs9B-hyKxctoaQCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Satoshi%2BKojima.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="OgTM5Rs.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OgTM5Rs.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="EVIL.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s8wwbhREW6Y/Wgd21KOXqGI/AAAAAAAABuo/zqiuattWwg4I2zK4cIDPayCPQVkG2yv-wCK4BGAYYCw/s400/EVIL.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Seiya%2BSanada.png" data-src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NAZlQ4l6UZY/Wgd2ekZKg8I/AAAAAAAABuM/WvliLlKCkB4BO6mosM9Kxz7m5fvytZFxACK4BGAYYCw/s400/Seiya%2BSanada.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="BUSHI_alt5.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1NcmsVOz8Lk/WfOXlV-W0cI/AAAAAAAABp4/ybyOAcbUoQkijLjp0HsBk4o40NxA58dgACK4BGAYYCw/s400/BUSHI_alt5.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Kamaitachi_alt.png" data-src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z7FqPct8k8A/WiYLcSX6a0I/AAAAAAAABxU/_mxl4YCU11U7dmumuJ1BZ5wY2yBQRialACK4BGAYYCw/s400/Kamaitachi_alt.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Volador%2BJr.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-agYK_Y9RAuI/WfUC-1WKpQI/AAAAAAAABqU/vpYa7gyuefkSkSuT33-rx9YX2ypZPzvYgCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Volador%2BJr.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Juice Robinson, Kota Ibushi, KUSHIDA, Ryusuke Taguchi & Satoshi Kojima defeated EVIL, SANADA, BUSHI, Hiromu Takahashi & Volador Jr in 11:37 when Taguchi used Dodon on Hiromu 79 B Immediately after pinning the champion, Ryusuke Taguchi challenged Hiromu to a title match. </blockquote> <blockquote style="border: 2px solid #FFD700;"> <img alt="Kazuchika%2BOkada.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vW4FZN5fPAM/WlkTp9wOcyI/AAAAAAAAB0k/cNjpykXxFUEcOMwMJ_CVSGRaKnrlJ4LnQCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Kazuchika%2BOkada.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Tomohiro%2BIshii.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XjK8LedsKec/WZAUruEMx6I/AAAAAAAABOE/qWuwvX98uOE8mqTcUpxnuLtxEXAmwYx-QCLcBGAs/s1600/Tomohiro%2BIshii.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="OgTM5Rs.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OgTM5Rs.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="9aBlc9C.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9aBlc9C.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="FiWuirq.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FiWuirq.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Suwama & Shuji Ishikawa defeated Kazuchika Okada & Tomohiro Ishii in 15:26 when Shuji used Splash Mountain on Ishii 85 B+ Suwama & Shuji in a promo in the ring after the match called out the IWGP Tag Team Champions KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji claiming they were owed a title shot from beating them in the Tag League.

A couple days after New Year Dash, a short video was uploaded onto njpwworld of WHIRO, or Jay White, talking. </div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

One of the first things Jay said was that he no longer wanted to use the name that Naito assigned to him when joined Los Ingobernables last year, he said that he is his own man and he's Jay f'n White. </div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Next he went onto Tanahashi berating him saying that while his head may believe he's still the at the top of the mountain his body says otherwise and Wrestle Kingdom proved that he's simply not good enough to be the ace anymore.</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

As for Naito he said that he respected him but he holds back those around him to keep himself positioned as the top dog in NJPW by surrounded himself with those who are happy to be number 2 but he wasn't and that's why he is stepping out to prove that he is better than him and at New Beginning in Osaka he will prove that by becoming the new IWGP Heavyweight Champion.</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Jay White then finished the interview by saying that he's surrounded himself with 5 men with a common objective as him, to be the champion, and that when he holds the belt he will grant them a title shot if they deserve it. </div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Caught up with this the last few days, loving it! Especially love the newest faction of the new generation. At least two or three guys I could see as future World Champs in that group, but they can all be successful. Anyway, late in the game but I may as well try and predict.

Managed to not only miss you posting WK, but NYD too! Both were excellent shows and as a Jay White mark, I'm excited for where he's heading. Also happy to see Tanahashi get one more 5* Dome main event. And I'm interested in seeing how the Ace is going to pull out of this tailspin. Great stuff as always, Joe.

Cobb re-entered the ring and lay down on his back asking for Ospreay to pin him. Ospreay and Red Shoes looked at each other both as confused as the other. Ospreay went for the weak cover as Red Shoes reluctantly counted to 2 but Ospreay pulled up Cobb's shoulder telling him that he was going to beat him the right way. This was the point where Kenny on the outside snapped and jumped in the ring, pushed Red Shoes out of the way and attacked Ospreay with a vicious V-Trigger. Omega & Cobb continued to beat down Ospreay until a man in jeans and a Chaos hoodie jumped the barrier pushing young lions out of the way before hitting Cobb with a huge knee strike sending him rolling out the ring with Kenny jumping after him to escape the hooded man. <img alt="Shinsuke%2BNakamura.png" data-src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2KM4RB-fhx0/Wogn2D1-cDI/AAAAAAAACMc/Nfre4TQh0JAxZN4k2l_BO5pccfGxEqAngCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Shinsuke%2BNakamura.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The man took off the hoodie and threw it at Kenny on the outside revealing himself to be Shinsuke Nakamura stood in a New Japan ring for the first time in just over 3 years. The crowd freaked out and began chanting Nakamura's name as Ospreay used the ropes to pull himself up. Nakamura put out his hand and shook Ospreay's hand before helping him walk to the back. </blockquote> <blockquote style="border: 2px solid #B90000; background: #E1D7D8;"> <img alt="Hiroshi%2BTanahashi.png" data-src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ebDPVlPZiEg/WiYLcqur1fI/AAAAAAAABxY/pt-bj1oYR78OmS88pleF9uUmTrCeJ8wDgCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Hiroshi%2BTanahashi.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Hirooki%2BGoto_alt6.png" data-src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OUfJRawCl98/WjrG6PTuXsI/AAAAAAAAByE/pt-kpJ-L89wczMkPkpMFV-OaC-7l0UAhgCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Hirooki%2BGoto_alt6.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="OgTM5Rs.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OgTM5Rs.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Katsuya%2BKitamura.png" data-src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DSW6iduWe8A/Wgd2ekHE0NI/AAAAAAAABts/TVZjy5iRKyszZTkbCiIAws9ZwRU35wqqQCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Katsuya%2BKitamura.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Tomoyuki%2BOka.png" data-src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OQYcXOx_z_Y/Wgd21MpKs2I/AAAAAAAABuw/yV7lAp5wYD0VEOUpDnpmjXwPD1SETDBWQCK4BGAYYCw/s400/Tomoyuki%2BOka.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Katsuya Kitamura & Tomoyuki Oka defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi & Hirooki Goto in 18:24 when Kitamura used a Jackhammer on Tanahashi 90 A In a backstage interview Katsuya Kitamura said that he & Oka are coming for the tag team titles and warned the winner of next weeks title match that they will be ready and waiting to challenge the winner.

Nakamura conducted a sit down interview released on njpwworld that was released the day after New Beginning in Yokohama where he explained that he was happy to be home in a New Japan ring. Shinsuke said he would be at New Beginning in Osaka and would be acting as Ospreay's second for his title match against Goto. As for him returning to Chaos he explained that he hasn't talked to Okada about it yet but Chaos is his creation therefore it shouldn't be an issue for him to slot back in.</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Nakamura called out Kenny for the match that should have happened 3 years ago for Sakura Genesis in April saying that the stars have aligned with the show happening the day after he's allowed to return to officially return to the ring and continue having matches however until then he's able to come to do commentary and act as a manager.</div>
