– Atlantis and Bobby Z have been announced for the CMLL/NJPW Fantasticamania shows in January.

– Mascara Dorada will be leaving New Japan as a full-timer after the Fantasticamania events, as he will have finished his one-year excursion with New Japan. There will be a new CMLL wrestler brought in for a year after his departure.

– Jay Lethal vs. Michael Elgin was originally discussed for the Tokyo Dome, but due to Elgin’s ROH contract expiring, it may be off the table now.
