"Still love to do morning run, nephew?" asked Suzuki.
"Yes, ojisan. It's kind of habit actually" replied Ken.
"That's good. At least you living a healthy lifestyle. So, where are you be going after Wrestle Kingdom?" asked Suzuki.
"Well, I was thinking to go America" replied Ken.
"Which company?" asked Suzuki.
"Well, I still haven't decide it yet" replied Ken.
"I see. Just focus for tonight. You don't want to leave New Japan with a boring match right?" said Suzuki.
"That's true. Don't worry about it" said Ken.
"Good. But, just you to know this. If things got screwed over there in America, just come back here" replied Suzuki.
"Very well, ojisan. I'll keep it in mind" replied Ken.

Ken: Hello, Kaori-nee.
Kairi: Hi, ototo... How you're doing?
Ken: I'm good... What about you?
Kairi: I'm great. By the way, I heard tonight will be your last match at New Japan.
Ken: Yes, that's true.
Kairi: You will miss it alot. Just like I miss Stardom
Ken: I know that.
Kairi: So, where are you heading next?
Ken: Well, it won't be a surprise if I'm telling you now.
Kairi: Oh, c'mon. Please tell me about it.
Ken: Just wait and see, will you.
Kairi: Fine. By the way, I need to go now. Say hi to Minoru-san for me.
Ken: Okay. I'll call you again sometimes.
Kairi: Okay. Sayonara. I love you.
Ken: Sayonara. I love you too, Kaori-nee.
Then, they hung up.
Later that night;

"Whoa, everybody is here already?" asked Ken.
"Well, it's Wrestle Kingdom after all", said Suzuki.
"That's true. But, still. I never thought that you're leaving after Wrestle Kingdom" said Taichi.
"Well, I want to try my luck in other major promotions though. That's why I'm leaving" replied Ken.
"Good luck, kouhai. Just remember that you can always coming back here" said Taka Michinoku. Ken just nodded.

Kairi is watching the match with some fellow WWE woman superstars.
"Hey, Kaori. Is that your brother?" asked Dakota Kai.
"Yes. That is him" replied Kairi.
"He's good" said Candice LeRae.
"Of course he is. If not, he wouldn't win G1 Climax tournament and IWGP Heavyweight Championship in his first try" replied Kairi.
"I heard this might be his last match in New Japan" said Bianca Belair.
"I wonder where will he be heading next" said Tegan Nox.
"Maybe here in WWE. Kaori is here" said Candice.
"Just because I am here, doesn't mean that he will be here too" said Kairi.
"Are you both fighting?" asked Tegan.
"Always. We're siblings after all. What I'm saying that he won't be here just because I am here" replied Kairi.
"Yes, but WWE might used you to get him" said Candice.
"Maybe but I don't think it will ever works on him. He's stubborn" replied Kairi.
"Just like you?" asked Io.
"No, I'm not" replied Kairi. The rest just giggled.
Back to Tokyo Dome;
Ken and Goto are brawling outside the ring. Goto tried to hit Ken's face on the apron but Ken managed to counter it by hits Goto with an elbow to Goto's ribs before hits Goto with a powerbomb to the apron. Then, Ken sends Goto back to the ring before tried to score a pin but Goto kicked out at 2.
"Onore" said Ken. He then pulled Goto's hair to force him to stand up. Then, Ken tried to hit Goto with a suplex but Goto hits him with one first. Goto then covered Ken for a pin but Ken kicked out at 2 counts.
"Hoh, now this is interesting" said Triple H. He was there with Stephanie McMahon to check on new talent that they will be signed.
"Yes. But do you think it's the right choice? My father had been wrong use talents from Japanese for years" said Stephanie.
"Don't worry, Steph. We will put him in NXT. With me, Shawn and Road Dogg in control, he will shine" said Triple H.
"I hope you're right about that" said Stephanie.

"Here is the winner of the match; Ken Housako!"
The referee then raised up Ken's hand. Ken then asked for a microphone.
"Well, well. Here I am. Winning another match here in Wrestle Kingdom. You see, I've been here for a while now. Winning the G1 tournament and IWGP Heavyweight Championship in my first try here is something that I will never ever forget about this. But, every meeting must ended. As most of you might know, this is my last match here in New Japan Pro Wrestling. I'll be out now and show the world what I got. Maybe 1 day, I'll return here but that time, I will be better than ever. Now, this is not goodbye forever, this is goodbye for now. Iroiro arigatō" said Ken before bowed down. He then tagged all the fans at the front seats before walked to back.
