Lots of interesting things coming out of the post-match discussions.
Newman seemingly implies he keeps f'ing up on the big stages and needs to find something for himself. I'm placing a bet he's a dark horse for the G1 qualifier tournament.
War dogs bullied LJ Cleary put before basically slagging TMDK in a fun promo.
O-Khan wants more Rural Revitalisation style matches and is gonna keep going with his shtick.
Hiromu and Tsuji both teased matches with Tanahashi, with Hiromu also loving the idea of openweight competition… Guess he might have a new direction.
TMDK are over the moon now having the tag belts and seemingly set up Tom Lawlor and Fred Rosser as the first challengers for the STRONG belts.
GoD tease a big split. ELP apologised out back before Hikuleo accepted and left him and Jado high and dry. Could be the end of an era.
Jeff Cobb was happy with his match and seemingly respected Ishii afterwards. Also used a lot of beers to stand his belt up.
Henare is annoyed and set up the rematch against Shingo, I feel like the feud is gonna end with a last man standing style match at this point.
Moxley is all in to fight even more. The rest of the 3rd gen think he's seemingly unstoppable, making even more clear he'll probably be stopped soon.
Natio seemed focused on his match with Jake Lee. Also said he lost the belt so he should be the one to reclaim it for NJPW
Ishimori accepted that God chose Despy for the final.
Despy was super happy that this year's BOSJ had so many outsiders and so much variety, basically saying it helps drive the Jr division to it's best status in a long time.
Pretty interesting backstage comments that help set up a really interesting summer, especially with a reduced G1 quantity.
