After 15 years, VKF shutted down. Zeus appeared at the final show and said VKF will live on in Osaka Pro.

Former AJPW  Wrestler and W1 Ace Kai won the top title in Dragongate. Media went on to mention Onita's Evil Ways.

AJPW

The Jake Lee vs Abby Jr match is off, Jake Lee is injured (nasal fracture, left orbital medial wall fracture) and the Triple Crown is vacated. Probably put the belt back on Suwama again.

NOAH

If Nakajima wins, Go can't say "I am Noah" anymore. If Go wins AXIZ is reformed.

Mutoh vowed to be the leading man of NOAH next year. Based. Ahhahahaha.

Did Honda bust Jake up and then ask to join TOTAL ECLIPSE? Real tough guy stuff.

Okada never mentioned anything about reactivating the IWGP HW. He wants the IWGP World HW.

Too many people don't understand that while the IWGP World HW doesn't have the records and history of the IWGP HW, it still carries on the IWGP HW lineage. (The IC too). 

Whatever happens, there will be only 1 top HW singles belt after WK. Could even expect the winner to carry all 3 titles as representing the IWGP World for a while. Or just 2, the IWGP World HW and the belt that was used for the defunct IWGP HW.

In other NJPW news, Naito wants to main event WK in 2023, so either he elevates the IWGP tags with Sanada next year or wins the G1 and uses the IC title in place where the defunct briefcase was.

I've read the new interview from ZakZak about the new president of NJPW..

He said "the spirit of challenge", and the" strength supreme principle " on the ring will continue forever as long as it is New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

He also said more than half of the business portfolio before Corona was ticket revenue, but NJPW increased digital and EC (electronic commerce) by about 30%. The app "New Japan Collection"  is growing.

When he was in elementary school, he first admired Mr.Inoki, Tatsumi Fujinami, Tiger Mask, and Hulk Hogan. He always had a desire for professional wrestling, and he did squats 500 times. When he studied abroad in the United States, he became a student of the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy, because he wanted to experience Gracie Jiu-Jitsu that shook the professional wrestling world.

He wants to make professional wrestling a major sport again in Japan.  Big pay for their fighters on the level of real sports in Japan, and have 10's of millions of viewers. (Like the NJPW 90's days).

NJPW will continue to advocate for Strong Style Pro-Wrestling for the next 50 years.

Abby Jr said "I am the provisional champion!".  So he wants to be interim champion and hold the interim champion belt.  He thinks it would be better to hold a transfer ceremony. 

Reminds me of Triple H getting the WHC. And NJPW's old IWGP provisional tags.
