Shinsuke Nakamura said goodbye to NJPW this morning in Korakuen Hall. After his final match teaming with Kazuchika Okada & Tomohiro Ishii to defeat Hiroshi Tanahashi, Katsuyori Shibata Hirooki Goto, there were some incredibly emotional scenes as CHAOS said farewell to their leader. It's available now on NJPW World and is absolutely something you have to see.

Also on the show, Hiroshi Tanahashi announced that he will be facing Kenny Omega for the vacant IWGP Intercontinental championship at The New Beginning.

NJPW announced the ROH participants for the Honor Rising shows in Korakuen Hall on Feb 19 & 20. Jay Lethal, Roderick Strong, The Briscoes, Moose, Adam Cole, ReDRagon, Michael Elgin, Dalton Castle & Delirious will all be involved.

I'm very surprised at the lack of Shelley or especially War Machine.

maybe Shelley's parting from NJPW was all that easy as we thought

Maube, but I don't think so. New Japan loves Sydal and he isn't on the list, either. Neither is Cheeseburger.
Someone on the ROHWorld Forum pointed out that this is Michael Elgin plus pretty much everyone under contract.
