EVIL:
‘Kojima, you has-been. The “I've still got it” act doesn't work on me. I’m concerned with taking the IWGP title, and having all of NJPW submit to my control. Remember- This is EVIL. EVERYTHING is EVIL. All of it- EVIL.’


Kojima:
‘One year passes so fast. The emotions I felt this time last year, that's what I've been carrying with me through all my matches. Thank you.’

Tenzan:
‘Like Koji said, this summer’s over. Win or lose, I wanted him to run through the whole tournament with all his heart and all his strength. He didn't win this year, but to me he was able to win something more than the G1. With me supportin him, he was able to bare his soul every night. He was able to have everyone think he might pull it off every night. I'm so grateful to him.’

Kojima:
‘Thank you!’

Tenzan:
‘Good job, man. Thank you.’

Kojima:
‘No, thank you. Let's get back to work.’

Tenzan:
‘Focus on next year!’

Kojima:
‘I'll be there.’

Kojima:
‘There's going to be people that look at my record this year and feel I'm not qualified to be in this tournament anymore. I get that. But that's right now. And over the next 12 months, I want to work harder, get stronger, get better, and earn my way into the G1 in 2018. That's what will drive me going forward.’
