Background
Storylines
Great Voyage in Yokohama
The Great Voyage 2018 featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
The Great Voyage 2018 in Yokohama will be main evented by Kenoh making his third defense of the GHC Heavyweight Championship against his partner Takashi Sugiura. On February 2, Kenoh defeated Yuko Miyamoto to make his second title defense of the GHC Heavyweight Championship. Takashi Sugiura who is Kenoh's only ally was at ringside for the match and congratulated him for his defense. Afterwards challenged him into a title match. Later that day, the match was announced to be the main event of the Great Voyage in Yokohama. On February 16 both lost to Atsushi Kotoge and Naomichi Marufuji, with Kotoge pinning Sugiura. Kenoh questioned if Sugiura was a worthy challenger. This led Suguira demanding a 10-minute match against Kenoh in which the match ended in a time limit draw.
On December 23, 2016 Kenoh stated that he was tired of being labeled a junior class wrestler when he knew he could compete with the likes of Katsuhiko Nakajima, Naomichi Marufuji, and even Sugiura on a singles level. In January 2017 Kenoh moved to the heavyweight division and formed a short partnership with Masa Kitamiya and the two even won the GHC Tag Team Championship. Their partnership ended when Kenoh turned on Kitamiya to form a partnership with Sugiura. This led Kenoh and Sugiura defeating Kitamiya and Muhammad Yone at last years Great Voyage in Yokohama. They would quickly lose the titles to Marufuji and Maybach Taniguchi. In mid 2017, Kenoh focused more on the singles competition after Sugiura was sidelined with an arrhythmia. After this, Kenoh would win the Global League (with Sugiura on commentary) and later defeated Eddie Edwards to win the GHC Heavyweight Championship. The two already faced before with Sugiura coming out victorious. This marks the second singles encounter between the two after a year.
In the GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship Daisuke Harada will defend his title against his RATEL'S stablemate HAYATA. On January 27, 2018 after Harada defeated Hajime Ohara to make his third successful title defense of the GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship he was confronted and challenged to a title match by Hitoshi Kumano and his RATEL'S stablemate HAYATA. On February 2 HAYATA defeated Kumano to become the 1º contender for the title. The title match was announced later that same day.
RATEL'S were formed in February 2017 by Harada, HAYATA, YO-HEY and Tadasuke. HAYATA would then win the GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship defeating Hajime Ohara and lost it to Taiji Ishimori. Harada then defeated Ishimori to bring back the title to RATEL'S. After this HAYATA focused on teaming with YO-HEY and the two even won the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship defeating Ishimori and Hi69. They lose the titles back to them and HAYATA focused on singles competition.
In the GHC Tag Team Championship 50 Funky Powers (Muhammad Yone and Quiet Storm) will defend their titles against The Aggression (Masa Kitamiya and Katsuhiko Nakajima). On February 2, 2018 after 50 Funky Powers defeated Maybach Taniguchi and Mitsuya Nagai to make their first title defense, they're challenged by The Aggression into a title match. The two teams faced before during the 2016 Global Tag League where Yone and Storm were victorious.
Another title match includes XX (Hi69 and Taiji Ishimori) defending the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship against Yoshinari Ogawa and Minoru Tanaka. On January 27, 2018 after XX defeated RATEL'S (HAYATA and YO-HEY) to win the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship for the second time, they were challenged by Yoshinari Ogawa and Minoru Tanaka into a title match. Their match was announced on February 2.
