Has Karl Anderson's penchant for countering Tanahashi's most famous maenuever rattled the champion?
In an interview with Tokyo Sports, IWGP Heavyweight Champion Hiroshi Tanahashi states he plans on debuting a new finisher in his match against Karl Anderson at the New Beginning iPPV. Anderson was able to successfully counter Tanahashi's High Fly Flow (Frog Splash) on previous occasions, including his non-title win against the champ at the 2012 G-1 Climax Tournament. It's also worth noting that a win over the champion at any point in the Climax usually grants you a title shot. Needless to say, this is huge news and will definitely play a major part in how both competitors approach the match.
