Basic victory promo from Goto to close; only notable thing being that he says after they win WTL, the Tokyo Dome will be next. In their Backstage Comments, he reiterates that they plan to win the IWGP Tag titles on January 4th and then face the Young Bucks on January 5th. This would mean something if the HENARE/O-Khan vs Young Bucks match hadn’t been officially announced, instead we all know it’s not happening the way Goto’s claiming.
