Shibata came out and said that New Japan (Rocky Romero) was asking AEW to fund the LA Dojo (Now rebranded New Japan Academy). He also complained about how back when he was running it New Japan were a bunch of penny pinchers and cut funding for it which is why it is has turned into normal western wrestling classes instead of being a proper dojo.

At least I have to imagine it is Rocky given the situation with New Japan seemingly winding down their US business. I also can't imagine some Japanese businessman doing dogeza for Tony Khan to fund their failed US Dojo. Another dome show perhaps, but US dojo I think not.

Found this on 5ch
>Summary of Kidani, owner of New Japan Pro Wrestling's first half of the year:
>With Wolf as a catalyst, they need to get more than 40,000 people into the Dome. On January 4th this year, there were 24,000 people, and if that's the number of existing fans, then twice that number will be an opportunity to gain new fans. Naito's departure and Tanahashi's retirement were not a sudden mass departure, but were gradually withdrawn from the company since last year, so they don't think it's a big blow. Instead, the new generation is working hard.
>The G1 is also important. The G1 is a battle to decide the main players for the second half of the year, so the central wrestlers there have a heavy sense of responsibility. However, the most important moment is January 4th at the Tokyo Dome, and since this is a prime broadcast, the ratings will be even more important than the number of attendees, so the company is I want them to pay attention to this as well.

Kidani is delusional if he thinks Aaron Wolf is drawing 40k to the dome. Every year this dude says he aims for 40k. I think it is just marketing speak. Besides even in the golden age they only drew that much once. They claim to have sold out 40K+ in '09-12 but that was from an era where they admitted to faking numbers. The only legit WK 40K was WK 14 day 1 imo. They should aim for 30-35k that seems like it would be good for where they are at for Tana's retirement.

I think it just shows there's no point in investing in any Gaijin's storylines in NJPW, because they'll end up being unresolved. Then they'll show up in AEW and be a completely different character, until there's a random match on Collision where AEW decides to reference the NJPW storyline again

According to very accurate sources, the G1 Climax 35 winner might be Yota Tsuji. Plans could change and it could be Yuya Uemura, maybe Shota Umino or Konosuke Takeshita but as of right now it is Yota Tsuji. A lot of sources told me this and also told me that Ren Narita might end up winning, it could also be EVIL if they feel like they need to change their plans. Gabe Kidd was also discussed as a potential winner so don't be surprised if he ends up winning the whole thing. As of right now plans could still change and they could have Hiroshi Tanahashi, Taichi or Zack Sabre Jr. winning but that's not the plan right now even though it could be at some point.
