After the bout, Okada gave the following post-match comments.

"It might be too early to decide Match of the Year, but matches like this one is why these NEVER Sox-Man Tag Team Titles are gaining prestige. We're gonna keep defending these belts next year and heat up NJPW more than ever. We're going to heat up both the singles and tag divisions. We're not just limiting ourselves to tag matches. We can liven things up in a lot of ways. We're gonna carry this place on our backs. We're the team that can handle it," he said.

Okada is set to face Bryan Danielson at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 18. He will reportedly be a free agent at the end of January.
