Tanahashi is quickly becoming the John Cena of puro. The year reign was smart and a great idea ESPECIALLY since it put over a new guy but you don't put the title back on that same freaking guy. I get it that Tanahashi is "The Ace" but geez....let someone else reign for a change. If anyone should of beat Okada that is a former title holder, it should of been Nakamura. Other than that, why the fuck should I give a shit about another Tanahashi reign? I don't even care if he fights Goto again. That ship has sailed.
Spoiler for Dominion:
No way, Nakamura was your choice? He's a heel, lol. Anyway, the way I see it, Tana will probably reign until Wrestle Kingdom, and then - enter NAITO. It makes perfect sense. Tana/Naito after a 6-month reign, it doesn't get bigger than that.

The "Tanahashi is NJPW's greatest wrestler" thing is silly. In kayfabe, even if you are the biggest draw or what not, without the belt YOU ARE NOT the best. If anything, Tanahashi just uses the belt as an accessory. It's like-look at me! I'm a pretty little girl! I have pretty hair and cool abs! And I have a belt too! If his star power IS big enough for him to draw without the belt, what does he need the belt for? This makes Okada's win and therefore his entire reign seem like a fluke.
Spoiler for Dominion:
Tanahashi is New Japan's TOP DOG, him without belt is not a permanent solution.

Spoiler for stuff:
He is not Rocky Romero. He can not hold the belt FOREVAH~! And him without a belt IS a solution. What if he gets injured? What if a fangirl freaks out and kills him? (I should note that something similar actually HAPPENED to him once, dawg got stabbed). One man can not be the only solution for NJPW. They have protected the shit out of Tanahashi. They could do much, much more to him then one lose and he'd still keep his credibility. And it's not like he wouldn't get 56 IWGP Hewiki reigns more anyway....

The numbers don't lie, New Japan remains on fire and the healthiest it has been in many years.

Spoiler for :
It's not the end of the world. Do I disagree with them taking the belt off Okada so quickly? Yes, but its not like Okada won't have more chances.
I can't see this reign lasting too long. Maybe even losing to the G1 winner. Already they have him lined up to face Makabe or Tanaka for the title, and either of those would be a fresh title match, even after Tana's record breaking reign.

Spoiler for Dominion result:
Very surprised at Tana getting the belt back. Okada is pretty much solidified now as a top worker so that reign did wonders for him, and he's definitely getting it back at some point imo. Looking forward to the match. I would have liked for Okada to hold it longer obviously, but at least we know we can get more good matches from Tana, I'm not his biggest fan but I always find myself enjoying his matches and he can have a good match with most people. Makabe and Tanaka are already two fresh match ups for his new reign that sound like they should deliver. Not a Makabe fan at all but I have faith that the match will be good.
