[Results] LOCK UP, 5/18/08 (Onita's Return)

All references to LOCK UP were removed from the official New Japan website, making this show the first that wasn't backed by NJPW. While New Japan has cut all financial support for the project, there may be more shows under Choshu's "Riki Pro" banner. The lack of funds would also explain why this show was held in the small "Shin-Kiba 1st RING", rather than a bigger venue like "Korakuen Hall" even with Atsushi Onita's return being on the card. Nonetheless Onita's "Hundredth" come back packed Shin-Kiba 1st RING.
