-Die TV Show von New Japan World Pro Wrestling (WPW) wird auf TV Asashi in Zukunft nur noch 30 Minuten gehen anstatt 60 Minuten.Das vereinbarten New Japan und TV Asashi zusammen.New Japan bekommt einen etwas verbesserten Timeslot ab April und zudem die zusicherung fuer sechs 2-3 Stunden Shows pro Jahr auf einem sehr guten Sendeplatz.Beide seiten sind davon ueberzeugt,das die umstrukturierung und die reduzierung der Sendezeit auf 30 Minuten sich positiv auf die Ratings auswirkt.So kann man das Programm kompakter machen und verzichtet auf zuviel Clips und Werbung.Seiji Sakaguchi meinte es ist ein weiterer schritt fuer New Japan um die Promotion neu zu gestalten.Auch will er das New Japan in Zukunft ueber Satelitt auf der ganzen welt zu empfangen sein wird.Und es soll in Zukunft mehr New Japan PPV geben.
