    The second will see Shingo Takagi put the NEVER Openweight Championship on the line against Hiroshi Tanahashi. Tanahashi has not usually been one to challenge for the NEVER title but this means a new match with Takagi is on the horizon. The two will battle in the main event of New Beginning in Nagoya on January 30, 2021.

    The remaining three title matches will take place at New Beginning in Hiroshima. Both the IWGP Tag Team Championship and the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship will be defended on night one.

    In a Wrestle Kingdom rematch, Guerrillas of Destiny will defend their titles against Dangerous Tekkers. Then, Hiromu Takahashi will defend his newly won title against SHO.

    Finally, in the main event of New Beginning in Hiroshima Night Two, Kota Ibushi with put the IWGP Double Championship on the line against SANADA. This was to be expected after SANADA challenged Ibushi at the end of Wrestle Kingdom.
