New Japan Pro Wrestling announced the following:
Before action could start on February 25’s Road to Castle Attack card in Korakuen Hall, Hiromu Takahashi got the evening started with an emotional address to fans in attendance. Confirming to the crowd that his left pectoral tear has rendered him unable to make his scheduled defence Sunday at Castle Attack, Hiromu reasserted his dream to wear junior heavyweight gold and win the heavyweight title in prime time in a Tokyo Dome main event. Ultimately though, declaring he wanted ‘no regrets in his wrestling life’, Hiromu would relinquish his championship belt to chairman Naoki Sugabayashi ‘for the sake of the junior heavyweight division’ before requesting that BUSHI take his place opposite El Phantasmo in Sunday’s Osaka bout.
