NJPW issued the following:
“An already stacked lineup for February 11 in Osaka that will see four big singles matchups and four major title bouts previously announced, now has a fifth title on the line!
Immediately after retaining NEVER Openweight and AEW International Championship gold in the Tokyo Dome at Wrestle Dynasty, Konosuke Takeshita was confronted by Boltin Oleg. The Big Man From Kazakhstan had not forgotten his win over the Alpha during G1 Climax 34 and had come to collect, with Takeshita promising that he would put the NEVER title on the line when he was back in Japan.
After a defence of the Openweight title against KUSHIDA at Battle in the Valley, Takeshita’s return is now set for New Beginning. The Alpha will not only want to continue affirming himself as champion with a second defence of his NEVER title, but to present a show of force in his hometown, with his first Osaka appearance since becoming a contracted NJPW wrestler. Yet having already outpowered the young sensation once during the summer, could Boltin shock the champion and potentially end his tour with two NEVER titles?”
