Some thoughts:

-Atmosphere was crazy fun. You could see how exciting it was to experience something like this. 3/4 of the hall was for the setup with the last 1/4 for vendors. Mu fukkin alcoholic line was packed the entire show. :heh:

-Cats came from EVERYWHERE. Sat next to a dude from NY and another from Bakersfield. Met some local cats on the train and we chopped it up for a bit.

-BC with no BC theme? :martin:

-crowd was hot all night. There was some stupid chants smarks tried to get over, but I don't think they made much of an impact.

-Got to see NaiGOAT in person. :wow:

-Production had trouble all night. The most annoying was the sound feedback. :snoop:

-I noticed on the big screen they were using the Dunn fan reaction shots. SMFH :snoop:

-I got me 700 thousand Okada bucks yen. :mjgrin:

Overall, show was fun. Elgin/Omega MOTN, imo.


Me and my homie live in Bakersfield we were thinking bout going to this event when we first heard but that shyt sold out quick. I know a few local heads that go to all the Cali wrestling shows so I'm not surprised

Only cac smarks have a problem with Billy Gunn in a big match. He's a bigger star overall than Cody Rhodes.

No one was trying to see Billy Gunn main event in 1999. Obviously that still applies in 2017.

I havent watched NJ this year, but it doesnt look like that's the main event. And even if it is, its a New Japan main event. The star power standards are lower, they have Cody Rhodes in their world title main event and its big for them.

Cody Rhodes is in a main event match with their face of the company, basically their Cena, and its apparently a big deal for them. So, why wouldnt I believe the star power standards are lower?

Because Cody Rhodes is the world champion of the #2 wrestling promotion in the United States, In his prime, and comes from wrestling royalty
