Even though I love Shingo and Tanahashi I don't understand why make the title change. Shingo has been one of your most consistent workers especially since Covid and you have him drop his title to Tana to feud with Great O Khan give me a break. That win even in a great Match feels like when Tana won the Revpro title over Sabre it meant nothing and they had him drop it back to Sabre JR less than a Month later.
Shingo/Tanahashi was one of the best matches I've seen and will definitely be a MOTY contender for 2021. Glad to see Mox back, now hopefully he either commits to a regular NJPW schedule or drops the gold.
Yeah I was a little meh about the change but the match was so good I didn't care. Going forward though I'm hoping Tanahashi gets a decent length reign and Shingo moves on to bigger and better things. I half thought that if Shingo dropped the Openweight Title that he would make it to the finals (and possibly win) NJ Cup.

Here's the full lineup for Strong this week:
- Jon Moxley to appear
- Rey Horus vs. TJP
- Bateman, Misterioso, Adrian Quest & Jordan Clearwater vs. Brody King, Barrett Brown, Sterling Riegel & Logan Riegel
- Kevin Knight vs. The DK
Yeah crossing my fingers you guys are right about Shingo moving up in the World. I thought last Year it would be that same thing happening to him and it didn't happen. With the NJ Cup and G1 you will need a fresh guy to win it versus Ibushi and he's the perfect man for the job.
Wait so all that and Jay White just returns at a Road to New Beginnings show after a month
Yeah talk about a let down I thought for sure he was leaving. Just back to doing to what he was doing before the huge loss to Ibushi.
haven't some other chaps said that same line recently
NJPW was also in talks with ESPN, Vice, and CBS Sports for a TV deal.
ON New Japan STRONG THIS WEEK!
Put in the Bank people Rush beats ELP and thus will start knocking on Hiromu's Door asking for a title shot of his own!
so I always skim through the results on f4wonline when I know I'm not gonna catch up on NJPW shows within the next day or two just to see if there's anything I wanna watch immediately and the dude writing the one for yesterday's said he just couldn't advocate for them anymore bc they've been so bad lately (even compared to previous tour shows that are never special), and the results posted today are just the matches and the finish...no detail I think dude quit
Tetsuya Naito has injured his right knee and will be out until February 28th.
