Some of the biggest stories in New Japan Pro-Wrestling for the week of Jan 25 through Jan 31, 2013.
It's been quite the week for Pro Wrestling NOAH. Reports of Kenta Kobashi being fired for cost cutting reasons, top stars leaving the company in protest, capped off by Kobashi announcing his retirement at Sumo Hall due to a catalogue of injuries.
Over the weekend, Pro Wrestling NOAH held their biggest show of the year so far at Sumo Hall. Of most interest to North American fans was that TNA talent, namely Samoa Joe, Magnus and Christopher Daniels, were used in key matches on the undercard.
