#8. Jushin 'Thunder' Liger Might Just Walk in as Champion come to Wrestle Kingdom 13

If he hasn't signed with WWE, can we please get that Mysterio-Liger match at Wrestle Kingdom 13

While Suzuki Gun has done a fine job holding down the IWGP Junior Tag division in the absence of a heel force like the Young Bucks. The team of Yoshinobu Kanemaru and Desperado might be from the outside looking in, come Wrestle Kingdom 13. They defend against the team of Jushin 'Thunder' Liger and Tiger Mask.

The interesting aspect of this is that Liger and Mask might win the titles as a huge approval for the veterans who've paved the way for Juniors, specifically Liger. Seeing Liger walk into Wrestle Kingdom in a title match will provide an added shot in the arm for the dwindling Juniors tag division.

This is especially true if predictions come to fruition and Roppongi 3K take a stance by the side of Jay White, in his new era. This will give the older lions to face the young hungry ones in a fascinating dynamic come Wrestle Kingdom. To be honest it'd be more fun than having some Suzuki Gun shenanigans at play.
