- Talent discovery and development
- Young talent should wrestle in more high-level spots
- Wrestlers still need to earn their spots in tournaments like the G1.

Plans are in place to keep data safe going forward
NJPW sponsorships
Thank you to sponsors.
Now looking at this plan it looks sound's good on paper but it seems too good to be true. I don't believe they would need 12-18 months to deal with most of these issues. NJPW World needing improvement will take a decade until it's considered good like Wrestle Universe. Reducing Interferences is never going to happen as long as H.O.T exist. And at least they admit they have a problem with the 13 titles.
