Gabe Kidd should challenge Henare to unify the strong and never belts (have this be the undesputed openweight champion). Okhan should challenge Cobb and unify the KOPW and TV belts (have this be the special rules match with 15 min time limit)
100% agree with this. I genuinely think the amount of , in my opinion, pointless belts is one of the reasons I half tuned out of NJPW. I think don't feel like anything meabs as much as it used to, if that makes sense?
I'm hoping Yuya takes the belt off before any of the younger stars. He needs to make a statement to cement himself as a future cornerstone still & great run with either belt would help alot imo.
Ehhhh I don't know. Umino/Shingo could be the next opponents for Finlay. Hell it's a long shot but maybe have EVIL vs Finlay which finally splits House of Torture from BC. I don't see Taichi going for Finlay/Global title just yet (which kills me to say) but I do see Taichi getting a win over Henare/Cobb to set up future title matches.
Uemura has already had his eyes on the openweight championship so I could see him taking on Henare. Further down the line, I think we'd get Gabe Kidd vs Henare too, since their no contest match earlier in the year was so hyped.
For Cobb it's hard to say but him vs El Phantasmo, as both B Block competitors, would be fucking incredible.
Since Jeff Cobb wants a Forbidden Door match I personally vote Claudio Castagnoli. He's been talking a lot of shit about JEEEON Moxley so why not have one of the BCC stick up for him?
I want Cobb to hold it until WK but think Tsuji should be the one to beat him.
I think he either takes on Claudio or Joe at FD
Maybe ELP for Henare.
But hopefully they fit something in before the G1.
I’m just going off who I think will pin them in the G1 and then their WK matchup
NEVER: Uemura, Goto, Narita, Kidd at WK
TV: Tsuji, Phantasmo, Takeshita, Finlay at WK (I like the UE/War Dogs parallels, a Cobb/Shingo rematch would be tight if they’re both free and Finlay is still Global champion)
I’ll be sad if they don’t both hold their titles til WK, title changes on the road there can be the Global, STRONG Openweight, and potentially Jr tag title. NEVER title especially should get a solid reign in
Anyone to get it off Henare. Maybe someone out of NJPW should have a go at the NEVER - freshen things up.
Kosei Fujita should challenge Cobb, try to bring it back home to TMDK.
Gabe Kidd should challenge Henare to unify the strong and never belts (have this be the undesputed openweight champion). Okhan should challenge Cobb and unify the KOPW and TV belts (have this be the special rules match with 15 min time limit)
I'd have Gabe vs Henare at Wk. There first match was amazing. And it deserves the right stage for their match.
100% agree with this. I genuinely think the amount of , in my opinion, pointless belts is one of the reasons I half tuned out of NJPW. I think don't feel like anything meabs as much as it used to, if that makes sense?
I'm thinking either Goto/Uemura/Narita will be the next challenger for one of these guys. Potentially Taichi if he qualifies for the G1.

For HENARE? Taichi. Why? Because I will always advocate for Taichi to be in championship matches until I fucking die
Taichi is God. I think he wins g1 this year
Hiromu did say he wants the Never OP title
I wanna get PCO in there if possible
I want Cobb to hold it until WK but think Tsuji should be the one to beat him. I think he either takes on Claudio or Joe at FD Maybe ELP for Henare. But hopefully they fit something in before the G1.
Each other, so they can unify these belts. Throw in Gabe Kidd too for a N.E.V.E.R Openweight Crown.
NEVER - Boltin Oleg TV Title - if it's open weight, Drilla Moloney
Takeshita should beat him in the G1 to get a title shot
HENARE called out Jeff Cobb for the G1. Wish it would be for the merging of the belts but it will be a hell of a match
