I still don’t know how valuable
this belt really is.
But, I'll admit that this is the belt
I wanted most right now.
And now that I have this belt in my hands,
I can't say that I'm any closer to my goal of 
holding this and the IWGP title at the same time.
So I'm back at square one, right?
From here, I start my journey towards
the Heavyweight title, while keeping this one.
Coming up, the G1 CLIMAX is set 
to kick off, isn't it?
And if I win that, I'll earn a shot at the
IWGP title, and no one can deny me, can they?
I can get to it, right?
It’s a short cut, isn’t it?
This belt came back to me at 
just the right moment.
Perhaps he really wanted to
come back to me, very badly.
Well…
Now that I’m back at the start, I'll aim for the
IWGP Heavyweight belt, while holding this.
Ibushi…
Ibushi...
Even though I don’t like Kota Ibushi, the person,
I do love the Kota Ibushi, the pro-wrestler.
He always gets my fired up.
Although he said he won’t have
another match against me for a while,
If you change your mind, make your 
challenge, anytime. I look forward to it.
But my answer will of course be…
Tranquillo.
Assennayo.
Adios.
