CHRIS JERICHO NOT DONE IN NEW JAPAN YET

Chris Jericho made an unadvertised appearance following the main event of New Japan Pro Wrestling's New Year's Dash event earlier today at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan, attacking Tetsuya Naito, kicking off a new feud.  The two had taken shots at each other verbally during the ramp up to yesterday's Wrestle Kingdom 12 event, which saw Jericho lose to Kenny Omega.

LIJ's Naito & BUSHI & Hiromu Takahashi & IWGP Tag Team champions SANADA &  EVIL had just defeated CHAOS' Kazuchika Okada & IWGP Junior Heavyweight champion Will Ospreay & YOSHI-HASHI & Gedo when Jericho hit the ring and attacked Naito from behind.  The two were pulled apart but Naito attacked Jericho and spit in his face.  Jericho was pulled to the back, throwing everything he could grab towards Naito, who mocked him by sitting in a chair in the middle of the ring.

So, anyone who expected Jericho's New Japan appearance to be one and done, that's not going to be the case.
