If Omega and Ibushi are on separate blocks....:lupe: there goes Naito's chances of headlining WK :snoop:

Kojima getting the "outsider" invite is so Gedo :mjlol:

:martin: No outsiders... We don't need 9 Toru Yano or Fukking Fale G1 matches every year. Just one. JUST ONE different face.

Man this is the time i'll miss Shibata the most, him and Ishii used to teach mofos how to be men in that ring :birdman:


Wonder if they keep Okada away from Naito & Omega

I'm actually more hyped for Juice in the G1 than Ibushi, not because I think Juice is better than Ibushi or anything (lol), but because I'm very into Juice's rise up the cards and am rooting for him to get a big win over a top guy.

Although if they have Kenny and Ibushi in the G1 and they don't match up either in their block or in the finals, Gedo can get fukked. And it seems just like the thing he'd do to not have them finally have their big match, because he's a dikk like that.

I mean this should be Juice's and Sanada's tournament, in terms of making the leap status wise. My guess is Juice will be made to look like Elgin in his first G1 (a huge success).

Man, if Ibushi is back even part time, a WK card with Okada vs Naito for the IWGP Title and Omega vs Ibushi for the IC strap would have great chances of finally drawing legit (paid) 35-40k at the Dome.

Juice doesnt really have the gimmick or skill in ring to impress like Elgin did. Dont get me wrong, dude is solid but not remarkable. That being said, a win against someone like MiSu would not only be a shocker but would give him a title shot too i would figure. Though truth be told with most of the guys in this tournment a win against the vast majority would be an upset.

Side note I REALLY want a Sanada vs Okada one on one match during his championship run.

pretty sure they plan on condensing it to 2 hours so they can put it on the wwe network
