So ok this gonna be my last post about this and my bad if anyone felt I spammed the shyt out of this thread.

Overall.... this was a really solid show and I was impressed. Truth be told, a lot of these guys on the streams when they wrestle, they some of the guys I would normally skip past or not watch their matches like a Trent Berretta but GOTDAMN his match with Juice was a really REALLY good match.

I know this probably had to do with the bigger guys not there but Juice was the star of the show and was HUGE here. I wasnt expecting the pop and the love he got pre match, during the match and afterwards and it was cool of him to end the show talking to the crowd. He touched the elephant in the room about the bigger names not being there and @Jmare007 you was dead on. He said it was dude to the shutdown and visas getting fukked up which to my surprise this crowd..... all these white folks started screaming and chanting "fukk TRUMP" as loud as they could:russ:

Juice definitely deserves being the US Champ and he made sure to talk to and take pictures with as many fans as he could post show.... hell when I left he was still out there and I stayed a bit talking to my boy who was working the show with some cats from his Fed he works.

Tonight was my first time seeing Jordan Grace husband Johnathan and he was actually aight too.... didnt really he's a little guy. Like he was in the match with Cobb against Marty and Marty looked much bigger than him height and weight.

Davey Smith wrestled this Young Lion dude Alex Coughlin and wow... that was actually another good match. This dude gonna be someone in the future to look forward to, he impressed the crowd. I noticed to everyones favorite Shibata was there as one of the outside ring guys (along with some others guys like how in NJPW has young lions or etc outside but leaning on the ring) and I was surprised no one noticed him. Like all the other guys were white and he was the only asian, plus it was like he was coaching the young lion dude or giving him info (possibly spots). When it was over he just kinda went to the back of the stage and watched from afar and then went back stage but again no one knew who he was and I guess thought he was a random staff japanese guy since he didnt make a grande entrance and was wearing some generic NJPW gear like other cats.

Davey Boy was better than I expected, he was kicking the shyt out that kid though.

Overall, even for the C Team talent and B Level guy like Juice (no disrespect to him but just in comparison to Okada, Tanahashi, Naito, Omega, etc...) this was a show that I enjoyed.

Only non enjoyable moment was when I went to get food and came back some white dude was in my seat..... I had to punk his ass to get the fukk up out.... security came.

Oh speaking of seats, like I wasnt able to get 1st row as the day they went on sell, seats were moving quick, like I had a 1st row, but the procrastination to get my credit card to pay for it, it got SNATCHED. But I have a 2nd row from the side seat and MAN. I'm so glad I got that seat, unless you want the smoke DO NOT GET A FRONT ROW NJPW seat.

When they throw people into the rail.... that shyt REALLY caves into the crowd. Like when I'm at shows I kinda lean forward and I know that shyt wouldve smashed my face. This dude had a beer and it collided into him and he spilled that shyt all him and the people near him. The guy beside me was laughing and looked at me like "damn these second row seats aint that bad"

Niccas really was throwing cats into them hard and them shyts caved into the crowed every fukking time and its not really a lot of space from where your knees would be from them

I can fukk with this card.

Any word on if this will be on NJPW World, or any of the other feds' streaming services?

Haven't really checked these last few days but as of last week, there was still no announcement on who would air the event. It would be beyond shocking if no one picks it up though.

That team of Honma, Okabayashi, Naoya Nomura and Narita sounds dope as fukk :whew:

Maru vs Mochizuki isn't a singles match after all, oh well, should have seen it coming.

The semi main event is :mjlol: fukking Mil still hogging the spotlight.

2, 4, and 9 should be dope.

What the actual fukk :dead:

Semi-main eventing at a combined age of 143. Nothing like wrestling on the planet, man.

Not a puro thing necessarily, but people referring to Jonathan Gresham as Jordynne Grace's husband is just hilarious to me. I've been watching him since he was doing shots in CHIKARA as a part of the Osirian Portal 9 years ago.

Sekimoto vs Bodyguard has an official date



I hope Daisuke retans but all of this slowly builds to him losing it to someone like Zeus or even Hino in a rematch. Then Yuji having to get the belt back, or one of the young kids :yes:
