All former members of the disbanded Suzuki-gun, TAKA declared that major changes would come to New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), before dubbing the group Just Four Guys. After this, DOUKI, Taichi, and Kanemaru would defeat United Empire (Francesco Akira, TJP and Will Ospreay) after DOUKI pinned Akira. After the bout, United Empire would attack the new stable. At The New Beginning In Sapporo Night 1 on February 4, DOUKI and Kanemaru would unsuccessfully challenge Akira and TJP for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship.

On March 17, SANADA defeated his Los Ingobernables de Japón stablemate Tetsuya Naito in the New Japan Cup quarterfinals.
