Takagi has previously won the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Title, NEVER Openweight Championship (twice), and the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship.

Post-match, Takagi called out Kota Ibushi to be his first challenger. Earlier today, Ibushi defeated Jeff Cobb. Takagi wanted an answer from Ibushi about a title match and Ibushi immediately agreed to a match at a later date.
