- During today's New Year Dash, commentary announced a 74,149 three-day attendance total for the past three nights, including Wrestle Kingdom. This year's New Year Dash drew 4,078 fans.

- As noted, Will Ospreay sustained a heel injury at Wrestle Kingdom in his loss to the new IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion Hiromu Takahashi. The injury looked to have happened when Ospreay pulled off a Sasuke Special during the match. Ospreay worked an eight-man tag at New Year Dash: Kazuchika Okada, YOSHI-HASHI, Ospreay, and Robbie Eagles vs. Minoru Suzuki, Zack Sabre Jr., Lance Archer, and Taichi. Ospreay started out the match, but did look to favor his heel a bit.
