Same venue where Okada and Tana had their very first IWGP title match. Won't be his final NJPW match (still 2 more after this one).

Hopefully Tanahashi sucks down some stem cells South Park style before the show to make sure it's a banger.

I'm really conflicted about this. The Rainmaker not being in NJPW just feels so, so, wrong.

Very. Wrestling in the 2020's feels great, but abnormal af lmao.

Tanahashi becomes president, Shibata signs with AEW and now Okada leaves, too? It's probably just a coincidence, but you can't blame a wrestling fan for being paranoid.

Man this feels so sad. I'm sure NJPW will push through. I hope Okada does return one day.
