As much as NJPW loves Ibushi, I wouldn't expect it to be that long until he signs there.

NJPW/AJPW “NJPW & AJPW 40TH ANNIVERSARY ~ WE ARE PRO-WRESTLING LOVE!”, 7/1/12 (WPW/Asahi Newstar/GAORA TV) Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan 11,000 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. KENSO, Masanobu Fuchi & Captain New Japan beat YOSHI-HASHI, Jado & Gedo (7:02) when Captain used the Caribbean Death Grip on Gedo. 2. Jushin Thunder Liger, Tiger Mask, Shiryu, BUSHI & SUSHI beat Prince Devitt, Ryusuke Taguchi, KAI, Hiroshi Yamato & Hiromu Takahashi (8:50) when BUSHI used a Firebird splash on Takahashi. 3. Takao Omori, Manabu Soya, Hirooki Goto & Karl Anderson beat Minoru Suzuki, Lance Archer, TAKA Michinoku Kaientai Dojo & Taichi (12:09) when Anderson used the Gun Stun on Taichi. 4. Masakatsu Funaki, Masayuki Kono & Minoru Tanaka beat Yuji Nagata, Wataru Inoue & KUSHIDA (9:48) when Funaki used the Hybrid Cluster on KUSHIDA. 5. All Asia Tag Team Title: Akebono & Ryota Hama beat Daisuke Sekimoto Big Japan & Yuji Okabayashi Big Japan (c) (12:35) when Hama used the Ryota Hammer on Okabayashi to become the 88th champions. 6. Seiya Sanada & Joe Doering beat Tetsuya Naito & Tama Tonga (12:21) when Doering used the Revolution bomb on Tonga. 7. Shinsuke Nakamura & Kazuchika Okada beat Suwama & Shuji Kondo (14:13) when Okada used the Rainmaker on Kondo. 8. NJPW & AJPW 40th Anniversary Main Event I: Keiji Muto, Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima beat Toru Yano, Takashi Iizuka & Tomohiro Ishii (12:09) when Muto used a moonsault press on Ishii. 9. NJPW & AJPW 40th Anniversary Main Event II – Triple Crown: Jun Akiyama Pro Wrestling NOAH (c) beat Taiyo Kea (23:26) with the Sternness Dust (4th defense). 10. NJPW & AJPW 40th Anniversary Main Event III – IWGP Heavyweight Title: Hiroshi Tanahashi (c) beat Togi Makabe (22:41) with the High Fly Flow (1st defense).
* New Japan and All Japan celebrated their 40th anniversary years in style with a successful joint show that packed Sumo Hall and entertained the crowd. It was announced that there will be a second joint anniversary show in Taiwan this October!
* Keiji Muto and Daichi Hashimoto appeared after the main event to announce that they will both appear at New Japan’s “WRESTLE KINGDOM VII IN TOKYO DOME” super-show on 1/4/13. It will be a fateful New Japan debut for Daichi, son of the legendary Shinya Hashimoto who was one of the biggest and most beloved stars in New Japan history.
* Hiroshi Tanahashi’s sixth reign as IWGP Heavyweight Title started with a huge match against Togi Makabe, surprisingly the first time these two have ever met for the belt. With both being so popular there were split calls but the flow of the match put Tanahashi in something of a pseudo-heel role and he was booed in parts while Makabe won much support. As expected this turned into a very hot match with lots of near falls but there could be only one winner and it was the “Ace of the Universe” as Tanahashi pinned Makabe following a barrage of High Fly Flows. Tanahashi will have little time to rest as he must make his V2 defense against Masato Tanaka on 7/22 in Yamagata.
* Following his successful V4 defense of the Triple Crown over Taiyo Kea in a match that was reminiscent of the 90s battles featuring the Four Corners of Heaven (Misawa/Kawada/Kobashi/Taue), Akiyama was politely challenged by Masakatsu Funaki.
* With the legendary Muto to help them out, Tenzan and Kojima finally got one over on CHAOS with the former nWo Japan trio besting Yano, Iizuka & Ishii when Muto dropped his moonsault press on Ishii to give TenKoji some momentum going into the IWGP Tag Team Title decision match against Yano & Iizuka.
* The CHAOS duo of Nakamura & Okada defeated All Japan’s power fighting combination of Suwama & Kondo and mocked the losers after the match, causing Suwama to go into a frenzy where he had to be held back and was mocked even further as Okada did the Rainmaker pose.
* There was said to be a good chemistry between New Japan’s Naito and All Japan’s Sanada with the feeling that these two could have a good rivalry if given the chance.
* There was a scuffle between Nagata and Funaki after the fourth match as their feud continues to intensify.

NJPW, 7/22/12 (WPW) Yamagata Sports Center 3,500 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Captain New Japan, Tama Tonga, BUSHI & Maximo beat YOSHI-HASHI, Jado, Gedo & Tomohiro Ishii (7:48) when Captain used the Caribbean Death Grip on Gedo. 2. KUSHIDA beat Low Ki (7:10) with a modified Japanese leg roll clutch hold. 3. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Title: Rocky Romero & Alex Koslov beat Jushin Thunder Liger & Tiger Mask (c) (13:44) when Romero used the Contract Killer on Tiger to become the 33rd champions. 4. Special Elimination Match: Minoru Suzuki, Lance Archer, TAKA Michinoku Kaientai Dojo & Taichi beat Togi Makabe, Yuji Nagata, Prince Devitt & Ryusuke Taguchi (16:46). Makabe threw Taichi over the top rope (9:23). Makabe used a King Kong kneedrop on TAKA (9:39). Archer threw Makabe over the top rope (10:41). Suzuki threw Nagata over the top rope (14:15). Archer threw Devitt over the top rope (15:41). Archer used the Blackout on Taguchi (16:46). 5. IWGP Tag Team Title: Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima beat Toru Yano & Takashi Iizuka (13:43) when Kojima used a lariat on Iizuka to become the 60th champions (decision match). 6. Special Tag Match: Tetsuya Naito & Karl Anderson beat Kazuchika Okada & Yujiro Takahashi (15:30) when Naito used a Stardust press on Takahashi. 7. IWGP Intercontinental Title: Shinsuke Nakamura beat Hirooki Goto (c) (16:50) with the Boma Ye to become the 4th champion. 8. IWGP Heavyweight Title: Hiroshi Tanahashi (c) beat Masato Tanaka ZERO1 (26:15) with the High Fly Flow (2nd defense).
In front of a yet another sold out crowd for New Japan, Hiroshi Tanahashi overcame the fierce challenge of CHAOS’ Masato Tanaka in an exciting match to complete his V2 defense, ensuring that he goes into this year’s G1 Climax as champion just like last year. It took close to half an hour for Tanaka’s bold challenge to be put to an end but once again the New Japan ace proved his ability when he hit the High Fly Flow for the win. Tanahashi has now won fifteen IWGP Heavyweight Title matches over two reigns in the last one and a half years.
* The IWGP Intercontinental Title scene was shaken up as in the biggest match in the title’s short history, Shinsuke Nakamura dethroned generation rival Hirooki Goto to become the 4th champion. Although considered a secondary title, this belt now certainly holds more prestige and worth than it did before and Nakamura adds another trophy to his well decorated cabinet. This is Nakamura’s first singles title for two years and two months.
* The seemingly endless TenKoji vs. Yano & Iizuka feud seemed to find some sort of resolution today as with four referees to avoid yet another non-finish, Tenzan & Kojima defeated the dastardly CHAOS duo in a decision match for the vacant IWGP Tag Team Title. The title was held up last month after a no contest while Yano & Iizuka were champions and New Japan officials deemed them unfit to reign as champions after that, demanding they earn the belts again in a fresh collision with TenKoji. But with four referees ensuring Yano & Iizuka could only bend the rules so much, the now 4-time IWGP Tag Team Champions came out victorious as Kojima sunk Iizuka with a lariat. It’s 13 1/2 years since the popular TenKoji duo first won these belts when they defeated Genichiro Tenryu & Shiro Koshinaka on 1/4/99 at the Tokyo Dome but they are stronger than ever in their latest reunion. Lance Archer appeared after the match to challenge TenKoji but didn’t say who his partner would be (Suzuki?).
* The IWGP Jr. Tag Team Title is back in CHAOS custody for the first time since Davey Richards & Rocky Romero were forced to vacate the belts in May after Richards couldn’t make a title match and his New Japan stay subsequently ended. Romero has since found a new tag partner in the impressive Alex Koslov and today they scored a huge win over Liger & Tiger Mask, who only won the belts themselves last month. Tiger Mask fell to the Contract Killer, meaning the last three champions have failed to even register one successful defense… a trend the new champions will be hoping to put an end to.
* In a huge upset on the undercard, KUSHIDA surprised the dominant Low Ki with a cradle to defeat the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion in a non-title match. This isn’t what Ki wanted ahead of his upcoming title defense against Kota Ibushi and for KUSHIDA, he will be watching that and could be the first to challenge the winner after today’s result.

I was watching the clipped version of the title switch between Okada and Tanahashi from June and there was some really great stuff in it. People were really into it.
