Thought it was a solid card all the way through.
Was fun to see Oleg get a win in his first G1 match, and also fun to see the crowd react to him in the way that they did.
The mad lad Gabe Kidd managed to drag EVIL to a damn fun match.
FInlay vs Uemura exceeded my expectations; those two absolutely showed the fuck out.
Was surprising to see Jake Lee get such a dominant victory over SANADA but it makes sense that they want to present him as a big deal and major threat.
Tsuji vs Takeshita delivered on being two studly young guys trying to outdo one another. Tsuji is just so damn over with the crowds and Takeshita is a super-athlete.
Naito's body is pretty fucked, ngl. He was having some real issues with some spots in the main event against Shingo (not being able to hit the Frankensteiner, failing to get some oomph on the Destino attempts). Despite that, I think Shingo was more or less able to "carry" Naito to a decent match (much better than the FD match against Moxley, tbh) and it was so good to see Takagi get the W.
