February 18th is gonna be the same. Iām going to make sure that it is the greatest womenās match of all time and when I hold up my championshipā¦ oh cute little KAIRI, Iām gonna send her back to Japan and she can go back to STARDOM and I can be the global superstar that Iām meant to be. Iām about to take that title everywhere, not just New Japan, but everywhere.ā
