So the ring that New Japan were borrowing that broke on the 7th? It was apparently so old that Riki Choshu was using it for World Japan over 20 years ago
https://sportiva.shueisha.co.jp/clm/othersports/fight/2025/03/19/post_25/?page=4>On March 7th, New Japan had a tournament at Korakuen Hall, and there was an incident where the iron pole of the ring broke, right? Apparently that was the ring that Choshu Riki used for WJ Pro Wrestling in the past. New Japan's ring was being moved for the tournament in Amagasaki, Hyogo Prefecture on March 9th, and the ring used on the 7th was apparently borrowed from a contractor... I can't help but think that maybe Nishimura was playing a prank on it.
