[Silkk]

Not enough time in the day

 

[3Rivers]

Got to admit I wouldn't have even been mad if Tacos pulled off the upset over Nagata on day 6

Day 7 I'd have to say Goto/Sanada and Marafuji/Ishii were my favorites

Tanahashi finally got a W

Whats the records?

 

[MightyHealthy]

My breh getting passive aggressive

It's just me and @Lost His Smile , we seriously could use the help.

Much like the attendance

 

[23Barrettcity]

Finished the show.

Marifuji/Ishii was the best bout IMHO not necessarily a must watch though.

A block is very underwhelming right now :/

What's Dave m saying ??

 

[MightyHealthy]

What's Dave m saying ??

I have no idea...I don't pay Double Talk Dave a dime.

I do know that A block hasn't had any must see bouts 2 events in a row, that's not good.

They should have sold up Tana never beating Fale until today, and worked a better match, but most folks check out in the thick of the G1 as is.

Shibata/Naito next event. That's three and a half stars even if they're on autopilot.

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

Block B is so much better than Block A.

Love the Shibata/Elgin match. Naito/Yano was completely

The "B"etter block of this tournament.

 

[Lost His Smile]

This goof Taguchi got some glasses with the eyes already on them.

LOS Kid is back hotdogging and grandstanding behind commentary.

 

[MightyHealthy]

You knew Yano would one up poor Honma

Tacos really proving he deserves to be in G1.

And EVIL is a shyt gimmick, but an above average ring guide.

They're having a damn good match right now.

B block is where it's at

 

[MightyHealthy]

I think Nakajima will "upset" Blue Justice.

Nagata might be over as fukk, but he can't stay at the top for long.
