KOJIMA SHOCKS THE WORLD!!!

Just days after winning the prestigious Triple Crown off Kawada, Satoshi Kojima is now the NEW IWGP CHAMPION!
He beat reigning champion Hiroyoshi Tenzan in 59:45 (15 SECONDS short of the 60 minute time limit to become the first ever 4-Crown champion in this truly historic match! Story of the ending was that Tenzan missed a moonsault, then couldn't answer the referee's ten count, so the match was awarded to Kojima.
Post match, a very heelish Yuji Nagata tried to attack Kojima, and now it looks like Nagata could be next in line to challenge for either title. Keiji Mutoh himself before expressed interest in challenging Kojima for the Triple Crown after this match, and Masahiro Chono also mentioned wanting to be first in line to challenge the first four-crown champion. No news on whether any former IWGP or Triple Crown champions were in attendance as Chono sent out an open invitation to any former champion to attend the show.
