Wk19 is in a interesting predicament

So Wk19 for the first time in a decade to not have the winner of the G1 climax challenge for the world title. It seems evident that ZSJ will win the IWGP Title and walk into the dome as champion.

The intriguing part about this is there is no specific challenger that Zack could face in the Tokyo Dome main event. And honestly you can say that with the current roster they have. A lot of guys have fought one another and there aren't any protected matches for the dome. Previous Wk matches new japan like to not only protect the matches. But keeps guys away from each other either for months or years.

Shootout to Randomdude04080918 for this detailed description:

●Okada vs Tanahashi @ WK7: Their first ever match in the city of Tokyo (First two matches took place in Osaka)

●Okada vs Naito @ WK8 (Intended main-event): Their first singles match in 17 months

●Okada vs Tanahashi @ WK9: Their first singles match in 15 months.

●Okada vs Tanahashi @ WK10: Their first singles match since WK9

●Okada vs Omega @ WK11: Their first ever singles match

●Okada vs Naito @ WK12: Their first singles match in 18 months

●Omega vs Tanahashi @ WK13: Their second ever singles match and their first singles match in almost 3 years.

●Okada vs Ibushi @ WK14 (Night 1): This was a rematch from only 5 months ago but still only their second singles match in almost 6 years

●Okada vs Naito @ WK14 (Night 2): Their first singles match since WK12

●Okada vs White @ WK17: This was a rematch from only 6 months ago but still only their second singles match in over 2 years.

●Naito vs SANADA @ WK18: This was a rematch from 9 months ago but still only their second singles match in over 2 years.

Unlike previous years the company doesn't have a big match that could main event the dome without involving Okada,Tanahashi,and Naito. The biggest match they have protected is Hiromu vs Naito which would easily main event the show. If Zack main events it's going to either be a proven draw like Naito or a young Japanese star like Tsuji. Zack is a unproven draw to a degree. If he's main evented a big new japan show it's been against Okada or Tanahashi.
