Additional comments from Naito.

New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s May 4th Wrestling Dontaku show will be Tetsuya Naito and BUSHI’s final bouts with the company as they are set to exit.

Both have gone on the record about their decisions to move on from NJPW and Naito did so again in his latest diary entry on the NJPW website. He noted that he has no regrets about his decision.

Since the announcement, I’ve been getting a lot of calls (phone calls, emails, LINE)… I feel happy that I’m getting such a good response. However, I have no hesitation or regret because I have already made up my mind.

My last series with New Japan Pro Wrestling is about to start. I wonder how I will feel after the Fukuoka event on May 4th? There are expectations and anxiety. But no regrets. Only 12 (events) left.

In their final match with the company, Naito and BUSHI are going to team with their Los Ingobernables de Japon stablemates in Shingo Takagi and Hiromu Takahashi.
