**Brock Lesnar is still the IWGP Heavyweight Champion after defeating NJPW Young Ace Shinsuke Nakamura in an entertaining match. Looks like Brock is going to be sticking around for a while in Japan, and the press is loving it. Also of note, Giant Bernard (A-Train) won his NJPW debut, though it was said to have been the only weak match on the night. A Brock v. Bernard match could be in the works...but if tonight was any indication, Brock should have no trouble with GB.
