  1. Thought it was OK tbh

    I think it’s very clear that kikuchi sees tag team wrestling especially hw tag team wrestling as a means to an end. That end is driving character development of singles wrestlers

    And now he is back on the booking team

    But that also means because they’ve actually put names in tag league there may be story development over the tour. The stuff with oiwa and gabe was sick as hell.

  3. Cool to see Oiwa use a Yoshinari Ogawa type flash pin on Gabe. Shows that Oiwa has different tricks and protects Gabe.

    My hope is that all of KENTA & Chase’s losses end in Chase being pinned or submitted.

    Also, it’s hilarious to see SANADA regress into his “Cold Skull” look.

  5. Sanada just being the fourth wheel to everything at the end was just low key hilarious. Unfortunately sums up where he’s gone in the last two years

  7. I lol’d at Henare’s real time reaction to the reveal of Taguchi, because it’s basically the same as all of us. I like Taguchi, but *that* was the surprise? C’mon man

  8. Calling a finisher “mother of all bombs” in Japan? Really? In this time we’re living in?

    This is stupid. Do they want to have even more empty seats at the next show?
