New Japan Pro Wrestling has a new President.
As noted, Japanese wrestling legend Hiroshi Tanahashi was recently named the new NJPW President.
This week, Tanahashi released his first official statement as the new President of New Japan. He stated the following:
I have been appointed as President and Representative Director. I am Hiroshi Tanahashi. Once again, I ask for your kind support.
As a wrestler, seeing the smiles of fans from the ring is truly the greatest joy. However, these smiles come from the cumulative efforts of various departments – from ticket sales and public relations to the creation of event programs and promotional materials.
It’s everyone’s collective effort that enables us wrestlers to see those smiles. Therefore, I aim to further develop New Japan Pro Wrestling into a company that brings even more happiness to our fans.
I ask for everyone’s support in this endeavor. Let’s embrace the challenges ahead of us, no matter how daunting they may seem.
