If I were New Japan, I would do a tournament for a new NEVER Openweight Champion. Hiroshi Tanahashi wins. He can beat Hikuleo somewhere in the tournament. Come Wrestle Kingdom, Karl Anderson has shown up and is looking for the belt he never lost. At the same time, Hikuleo has been trying to prove he can beat Tanahashi. WK is a three-way for the belt. Not too overpowering, but something with story.
Tanahashi retains the belt. A Raw soon after he has a moment with AJ Styles. Tanahashi vs. Styles for the NEVER Openweight Championship at Elimination Chamber. Tanahashi wins the battle of the best hair, and defends his belt against the former Bullet Club leader in the Saudi show his underling used to disrespect it.
