• Discussion of the factors at play, Japan's economic conditions and the state of American wrestling today.

• What's ahead for Okada's faction, CHAOS? Should they continue with a new leader, or disband altogether?
• Talk of the lack of strong leaders among New Japan factions. Who could step up, and who should form new ones?
• Will New Japan strap the rocket to one of their new stars such as Shota Umino, Ren Narita, Yota Tsuji or Yuya Uemura?
• Are there other stars from Japan that could make an impact by moving to New Japan?

Okada's departure is seismic event in professional wrestling. Will this shakeup lead to a new period of creativity, or will New Japan be hurting going forward? Speaking of Strong Style covers the angles of one of the year's biggest stories.
