NJPW New Year Dash - January 5, 2023

House of Torture really feel like they're sideshow freaks. And yes, the name sucks.

 

[Wiseman]

It was a fun main event for sure. Excellent show overall, a very nice companion piece, if you will, to go with WK. Plenty of great set ups for future feuds.

It was funny, Kenny looked more like the terminator gimmick with that bad eye today than he did with the mask.

Soooooo big news from this. Jay White has challenged Hikuleo to a loser leaves Japan match

I just saw this on Facebook. Jay to return to Impact and maybe AEW?

The US BC branch could use him as it was getting lonely after Jay and the Good Brothers went back to Japan.

I do wonder if this means Jay might not extend his deal in 2024.

Oh it could just be Strong, but considering how light the schedule is for both Strong and Impact, I wouldn’t see why they wouldn’t let him return to Impact. Ace and Bey are kinda isolated over there.

I could also see Hikuleo being thrown into Strong since he’s used less in Japan, though.

Hikuleo was stuck on Strong forever and only recently started appearing in Japan again, I think its too obvious Jay loses but what happens after I'm super intrigued about

Hikuleo also only joined GoD when he came to Japan. Doesn’t seem likely he’d go back to the US.

It will be interesting to see how the fallout changes things. If Jay returns to the US branch, will Evil regain his Japan leadership rights or will someone new step up?

sounds like US of JAY pt 2 then

He still lives in the US so is on Strong regularly anyway, but that also goes for Jay too actually so yeah loser isn't necessarily going to be "sent to strong" either if that's the case, they just won't be traveling to Japan lol

It would actually be GREAT basis for a Jay/Tama feud if Jay got Hikuleo kicked out of the country tho

I’m hoping so.

That’s a great point. Jay can come for Tama’s new Never belt too.
