I wonder if that's how they retire and write it off. I wondered that. Bring in a new belt and write off this one.

JONAH is so tailor made for New Japan. And Okada is so good at playing the underdog face. It also makes him mix up the normal formula. No 10 minutes of fairly non remarkable back and forth grappling. A single, well told simply story.

Like the story of Okada working the leg so JONAH can't just stand up in the money clip.

Loved the touch of JONAH selling the leg climbing giving Okada the extra moments to recover.

GREAT match. Both guys looked fantastic. Build up JONAH and stick the belt on him.

Okada came up with a perfect plan.

10 years ago Tama Tonga was a rookie in New Japan wearing Snuke style trunks and taking the fall in matches

Tanga Loa is out the rest of the year as he had MCL surgery.

White has been making less than flattering remarks about Eddie Kingston

Good main although the inevitability of White retaining hurt it a bit. But Tonga did great, has been such a good baby face. Genuinely think he's proven himself

Top to bottom best overall show from NJPW I can remember in ages. Some really interesting events on the lower card and all the matches in the second half delivered. Really good show, with Okada-JONAH taking MOTN

So, what looked like a B-show outing turned into one of the best shows of the year?
