Every title match will be contested with a 15 minute time limit, encouraging a rapid style in the ring. Ohbari suggested that he would also like to see the younger wrestlers on the roster compete for the title, with the first contenders for the new title dueling it out in a tournament to start at Battle Autumn. >Mihira echoed Ohbari’s hopes that with the new challenge and new title, a new star may be born, before promising that matches will also be available for free to watch through the power of NJPW World and social media. That promise will be followed through on with Battle Autumn night one on October 14, which will see the first tournament matches.Although I guess given the circumstances, I shouldn't be too surprised that the belt 1) Wound up being the opposite of what Ohbari wanted, 2) Wound up on the guy who took Ohbari's job.
>>13522985I mean don't get me wrong, I thought Narita should've won the thing to start, but I was fine with the idea of establishing it with Zack because I like Zack and thought he would drop it to a Narita or a Tsuji or something.
