Hey, isn't it a bit early for a new Strong Style Story episode? Well, yeah, but hours after we posted Episode 48, a bunch of news and show lineups dropped, so Geoffrey & Chris did this little supplemental half-episode to catch us up on everything, including:
* The announcements of KUSHIDA's departure from NJPW, the probably-very-worked departure of Kenny Omega, and the retirement of Takashi Iizuka.
* A little bit about All Elite Wrestling and how Kenny Omega was NOT part of that rally
* Updated bits on Fantasticamania, and the featured matches for The New Beginning cycle of shows
* Juice Robinson and David Finlay forming a new stable in Ring of Honor, promising to be there a lot in 2019, and how this might affect the three upcoming New Beginning USA shows
* A little update about the Giant Baba Memorial / Abdullah the Butcher retirement show on 2/19/2019 that NJPW will be part of, and how two wrestlers' declared dream matches might be a political nightmare.
