The flag Tanahashi is waving looks exactly like the ones they give other athletes/teams in Japan, even for junior high or high school district tournaments. The white strips are names of previous winners. ...and now he's broken the handle. Wow.

Flying to japan for three wrestling shows in sumo hall was the second best decision I've made in years

Main event was bananas. And I'm totally cool with another Tana/Okada Dome main event. The rivalry is chasing GOAT status and I want it to get there before Tanahashi is past his prime.

Really enjoyable show. I was so pumped for reDRagon to win, but the match turned to ridiculous overkill after the belt shots. At this point, they should just merge the tag divisions because NJPW has like 5 teams total and two of them are on loan from ROH. Ricochet/KUSHIDA was insane and I'm not sure that Ricochet will have a functioning body by the time he is 30. The main event was fantastic but I wanted Nakamura to win so badly. Hopefully Tanahashi is the one leaving the Dome in tears this WK.

Did anybody make a gif of Rico's 630 yet because that was the dumbest bump since Tanahashi high fly flowed the ring post

I had high hopes for Ricochet vs Kushida, but they lost me at the start with all the pretty flips. I mean, the stuff they did was technically cool but I just couldn't get into it like I did other recent Kushida matches.

I definitely wanna do WK, but it can't be 2016. Maybe 2017. If I start saving now I can pull it off. e: Well that was easy! Turns out my fiance has a pop show by her favorite singer that's always held at or around NYE so we're going to do 2 weeks in 2017 that way we both get to cross something off our bucket list.

The gymnastics meet at the start of the match was impressive but didn't get me more into the match.

Tonfa posted:The match was tremendous and the booking here is fine but I really wanted Nakamura to win, he's so far behind in their rivalry now Yeah I really wanted Nakamura to win as well, he really deserves to close out a Wrestle Kingdom. In fact, I don't know how they'd get there, but I would mark the hell out for Nakamura winning the title before WK and the main event being a rematch of G1. Nakamura, Tanahashi, Okada, Styles and Ibushi are always amazing when facing one another in high-stakes title matches, so I'm sure there will be amazing matches at Wrestle Kingdom involving all or most of them, but my heart wants Nakamura to overcome that dragon screwing son of a bitch on the biggest stage of them all. Very special shout-out to Red Shoes doing the most dynamic and exciting 3-count I've ever seen to end that main event as well.
