Two additional title matches appear to be set for the G1 Supercard event on Saturday, April 6th at Madison Square Garden.
Following Sunday’s New Japan Cup Final event in Nagaoka, there were several challenges made during the post-match interviews in front of the media.
Kota Ibushi challenged Tetsuya Naito for a match for the Intercontinental title at Madison Square Garden, which Naito later accepted and told New Japan officials to make it official.
Zack Sabre Jr. made his own challenge to Hiroshi Tanahashi and would defend the British heavyweight title at the G1 Supercard.
Additionally, there was an angle with Tomohiro Ishii and EVIL attacking each other in the back to set up a future match. Will Ospreay said he would defend the NEVER Openweight title against Taichi at Wrestling Dontaku in May. When Taichi was interviewed, he teased going to Madison Square Garden to get involved in Ospreay’s match against Jeff Cobb.
