NJPW final event of the year was centered around the end of the Suzuki-gun group.
Today’s show at Korakuen Hall was headlined by the members of the group being paired up in an eight-man tag and concluded with Zack Sabre Jr. pinning the group’s leader, Minoru Suzuki.
Post-match, each member took turns speaking about their experiences in Suzuki-gun and sharing their appreciation of Suzuki, who created the group 11 years ago.
There was a surprise appearance by Takashi Iizuka, who retired in 2019. Suzuki announced earlier this month that Suzuki-gun would go their separate ways at the end of 2022.
