Road to The New Beginning

Fantastica Mania 2018 was a professional wrestling tour, co-produced by the Japanese New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) promotion and the Mexican Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) promotion. The tour took place between January 12 and 22, 2018, with shows taking place in Nagoya, Kyoto, Takamatsu, Osaka, Toyama and Tokyo, Japan. The 2018 tour was the eight time that NJPW and CMLL co-promoted shows in Japan under the Fantastica Mania name. With eight shows, the 2018 tour was the longest in Fantastica Mania history. The shows generally featured seven matches each night, with several shows being shown at least in part on SamuraiTV, and the last three shows were shown in full as part of the NJPW World streaming content.

The eight shows featured a total of 66 matches, four of which for CMLL championships including Soberano Jr., Niebla Roja and Volador Jr. successfully defending their championships, and El Cuatrero defeating Ángel de Oro to win the CMLL World Middleweight Championship. The focal point of the last two show was the "CMLL Brothers tag team tournament, won by Gran Guerrero and Último Guerrero, that also included El Cuatrero/Sansón, Ángel de Oro/Niebla Roja, and Dragon Lee/Místico.
