Hiroshi Tanahashi seems to have indicated that NJPW Strong will soon be coming to an end.
NJPW Strong is set to hold its Nemesis tapings today, January 7th, at The Vermont Hollywood in Hollywood, CA. Via his personal blog, Tanahashi wrote, “#NJPWSTRONG, which has been going on for more than 2 years, will end with this recording. It seems that the overseas tournament will be told in a different way in the future.”
New Japan have not yet commented on the future of NJPW Strong. It should be noted that NJPW President Takami Ohbari said via social media that Strong would be “rebuilt” in 2023. You can see his tweet from December 2022 below:
解説において、STRONGの今後について、お話させて頂きました。#njpwSTRONG will be rebuilt next year.
