Kenny grabbed a microphone and said “sometimes it is a sad world that we live in where friends have to go to war with each other. Sometimes in war there are casualties, but there is a silver lining and that is that the Golden Lovers are back. And we are here to stay and before you know it, New Japan Pro Wrestling is coming back to backyard near to each and every one of you”.
Omega added that he loves to party with you guys and brought up the issues within the Bullet Club. Kenny said that Cody is only good at talking, but when it comes down to it, he is going to beat the “ever-living poop” out of Cody. The crowd started chanting “poop” for a moment. Kenny stated goodbye and goodnight to the crowd as NJPW Strong Style Evolved went off the air.
