Baba's mat work in prime is so slept on. He could go with anyone until the mid 1970s.

As expected, Daichi Hashimoto won the n°1 contender match against Kamitani so he's gonna be facing Suzuki at Death Vegas. If he loses I have no idea what Big Japan is gonna do unless Shuji Ishikawa returns and takes the belt.

Bad attendance in Korakuen again btw

I'ma need a review on Endo/Bailey breh


Also, who's Takeshyta next challenger?

The match as expected was dope as hell. Dudes wrestling like a Jackie Chan flick but the ending left me scratching my chin

As far as Takeshyta's next challenger, I didn't really see any announcements except Damnation's second show in December and their Grand Prix show next year.

 

[Beautiful Bobby Eatin]

Any word on Honma's condition lately brehs. Was watching him vs Ishii today
