SANADA wins the IWGP title at Sakura Genesis | What's next for New Japan? | Speaking of Strong Style

Steven Conway and Jeremy Finestone are back with the latest episode of Speaking of Strong Style! This week, they discussed the newsorthy Sakura Genesis show, including SANADA's win over Kazuchika Okada to capture the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, Aussie Open's victory over Bishamon to ascend to the top of the IWGP tag team scene, Zack Sabre Jr.'s win over Shota Umino, Hiromu Takahashi's Jr. Heavyweight title defense against Robbie Eagles and more. The pair talked about what the future holds for the various titleholders, as each came away from Sakura Genesis with new challengers. They also discussed what's next for Okada. Could it be a run at Strong Style's NEVER Openweight Six-Man titles, and possibly even a full-fledged heel turn? Jeremy and Steven looked at El Phantasmo's ejection from bullet club via shillelagh, and how David Finlay took aim at Tama Tonga's NEVER Openweight title while KENTA targeted Hikuleo. The pair also looked ahead to a wide variety of shows, including two events in the US this week, one of the biggest women's shows in decades featuring Mercedes Mone versus Mayu Iwatani, and the road to Dontaku 2023.
