"Switchblade" retains his ā¤titleĀ but a new challenger arises.
In what was a hard-hitting match where the two men put each other through war, the mysterious man of the 'Chaos' faction "Switchblade" Jay White successfully defendedĀ the IWGP US Heavyweight Championship against Adam "Hangman" Page during tonight's 'Strong Style Evolved' event.

Finlay would go on to issueĀ a challenge to Jay WhiteĀ for the IWGP US Heavyweight Championship on April 24th at Korakuen Hašll.
