Big Happenings at NJPW New Beginning in Sapporo (Spoilers)

New IWGP United States Champion

At the NJPW New Beginning in Sapporo event today, Jay White defeated Kenny Omega to become the second ever IWGP United States Champion.

After the match, Hangman Page came out to challenge Jay White, which lead to an argument with Kenny Omega, which lead to…

The Bullet Club Break Up?

Cody Rhodes then came down and started to argue with Omega. The Young Bucks and Marty Scurll came down to try to break it up, but Omega shoved Matt Jackson down to the ground. Omega tried to apologize, but the The Young Bucks, annoyed, walked off and out of the ring, followed by Scurll, who tried to keep the peace between Omega and Rhodes.

Omega and Page then seemingly worked it out, fist bumping each other… and Omega did the same with Cody… until Cody grabbed him from behind and nailed him with the Cross Rhodes. Hangman Page also turned on Omega and held him as Cody grabbed a steel chair and prepared to nail him with it…

Golden Lovers Reunite

…Until Kota Ibushi ran down to make the save and clear the ring. Omega got up and the former tag team partners hugged each other as confetti fell down to the ring.

Omega and Ibushi were a tag team known as “Golden☆Lovers” in Japan’s DDT Pro-Wrestling (and sometimes NJPW) from 2009-2014.
