"Hey, mate. How you two are doing?" asked Orion.
"We're good, mate. Finally, you return here for New Japan show", said Ospreay.
"Well, it can't be helped. New Japan didn't book me in any match during G1 tournament except for the final day of the tournament", said Orion.
"You're not in the tournament? No wonder I saw your Instagram update that you were in Malaysia", said Bea.
"Yeah. They choose Hangman Page over me", said Orion.
"Well, to be honest, I thought that you will be automatically being added to G1 tournament the moment you're returned based on your good record but you're not", said Ospreay.
"Yeah, but what can I do about it. That's why I'm glad I signed with a 2nd-tier contract this time so I can be book in other place too", said Orion.
"By the way, mate. Need to go now. See you tomorrow then", said Ospreay.
"Okay, then. Don't be naughty, sex pig", said Orion. Bea chuckled.
"Oh, shut up, mate", said Ospreay. Orion chuckled.
"Say hi to Mayu for me if you meet her, Bea", said Orion.
"Sure. You're best friend nowadays, huh", said Bea.
"Well, you can say that", said Orion. Then, Ospreay walks away with Bea Priestley. Then, Orion makes his way to a diner to have his dinner alone. While waiting for his meal, he looks around and see many loving couples around him. He just smirked before he starts playing PUBG Mobile on his phone.

"Of course it's me", said Orion.
"Oh, my god", said Tegan Nox before hugs Orion.
"Well, never thought you'll remember me, Steff", said Orion.
"How can I not to? You're my best friend in England. Besides, the last time we met was more than 2 years ago in your short return to PROGRESS", said Tegan before let Orion go.
"Why are you here, by the way? I didn't heard anything about you re-signing with Stardom back", said Orion.
"Just walking around, mate. What about you?" asked Tegan.
"I was booked in New Japan show later on. Want to go and watch me?" asked Orion in returned.
"Sure, I love to. I want to see how tough the current IWGP Intercontinental Champion", said Tegan.
"Of course he's tough", said Orion. Tegan chuckled.
"Then, can we hang out together after that?" asked Tegan.
"Of course. C'mon, then", said Orion. Then, Orion and Tegan walked to the arena. When they arrived, Tegan went to buy ticket and makes her way into the arena while Orion just enters the arena and walk straight to the locker room where he saw his Bullet Club stablemate; Lukas Kahn, Guerilla of Destiny and Taiji Ishimori were there.
"There he is", said Lukas.
"What, you're waiting for me?" asked Orion.
"Yeah, we saw you walking with a girl to the arena. My question, who is that girl?" asked Tama in returned.
"Oh, that's my childhood friend, Steffanie Newell. She's part of Stardom last year and PROGRESS 2 years ago", said Orion.
"Oh, it's her. Toni told me that she get injured during the Mae Young Classic tapping few days ago", said Lukas.
"Really, I don't have time to ask her though. I met her on my way here, so I just ask her to come and watch us. We're going to hang out later on", said Orion.
"So, she's your new girlfriend?" asked Taiji.
"No, Ishimori ossan. She just my childhood friend. That's all", said Orion.
"Yeah, for now. Who knows in the future", said Loa.
"Yeah, right. But let her be for now. So, We all know Lukas will face Ibushi. Who'll you be facing?" asked Orion.
"Tevita, Taiji and I will face Scurll and Young Bucks. We'll try to make it a title match for their trios title. What about you?" asked Tama.
"I'll be defending my IWGP Intercontinental title against Hangman", said Orion.
"So, all of us will face Omega's bitches, huh. Interesting", said Lukas.
"And all of us will win it", said Ishimori. The others just nodded.
Later;
G.O.D and Ishimori managed to win the NEVER Openweight 6-man Tag Team Championship from Marty Scurll and Young Bucks. Then, Orion making his way to the stand by area where he saw Hangman Page is already there.
"Ready to lose your title?" asked Page.
"Ready to get your neck broken?" asked Orion in returned.
"Who the fuck do you think I am?" asked Hangman.
"Nobody", replied Orion. Then, 'Hangman' hitted and Hangman Page make his entrance. Later on, 'War' hits. Orion then making his way out to the ring with his IWGP Intercontinental Championship gold on his shoulder. As he walking through the ramp, he saw Tegan sat at the second rows seats with a Bullet Club's scarf on her neck. Orion tried his best not to smile to her. He then enters the ring and quickly attacks Hangman after drops the belt. The reff asked the bell to be ring while taking the title belt away from the ring.
5-minutes later;

"New Japan Pro Wrestling! I've told you before that I am better than Page. I gave you a chance to replace him with me in this G1 tournament. I have a good record in this tournament but still you chose the loser that I just beat up easily? What a waste", said Orion before dropping the mic and walk away.
Later at the backstage promo;
"So, I win. It's so easy. To be honest, if I wrestle against a broomstick, it will gives me more challenge than that arsehole that just tapped out just now. But doesn't matter. Now, I'm going to take shower and get ready to celebrate Bullet Club's win later", said Orion before left.
Then, after the main event;
Orion and the rest of Bullet Club OG came out to the ring to celebrate Lukas's success to win the G1 Climax 28 tournament.
"Well, well, well. Some of you might be surprise of this win. Who will ever thought someone that being of radar for a while managed to win this year G1. But now, you might realised it. For this whole time, I gave my spotlight to Kenny Omega. But, not anymore. From now on, this spotlight is belongs to me and my brothers of Bullet Club OG. Kenny Omega, enjoy your title reign for a while because at Wrestle Kingdom 14, I will take the IWGP Heavyweight Championship away from you and it is REAAAALLLL", said Lukas. Then, 'Shot'Em' hitted and the celebration is continued.

"Hi, boys. Congratulation for your success tonight", said Tegan.
"Thanks, Steff. For coming here", said Lukas.
"And for buying Bullet Club merchandise too", said Tama.
"You're welcome", said Tegan.
"Well, we're see you around then", said Loa.
"Yeah, take care of our Orion here", said Taiji.
"Uruse, Taiji ossan", said Orion. The rest chuckled. Then, they left Orion and Tegan.
"So, where're we going?" asked Tegan.
"Let's find a place to supper first", said Orion. Tegan just nodded before both of them walked away.
Later at a diner;
"So, Orion. I heard that you'll not date anyone until you got the IWGP Heavyweight Championship", said Tegan.

"Who knows. But what if you never get it?" asked Tegan.
"Then, I just stay single. What about you? When will you getting married?" asked Orion.
"Who knows. Still looking for a right man", said Tegan.
"In other words, you're choosy", said Orion.
"Of course, I am. It'll affect the rest of my life after all", said Tegan.
"You're right. So, I heard you got injured. Are you okay now?" asked Orion.
"Yeah, but I'm still not clear to wrestle", said Tegan.
"Don't worry. I believe that you'll be back stronger than ever", said Orion.

"Of course I am. People alway thought me as triplet with you and Lyra remember?" asked Tegan. Orion chuckled.
