Nothing in there that particularly grabs at me, I think I'll just hold out for Invasion Attack itself.

I just want a drunken AJ staggering out demanding to know where the Pokey-mon are, he was promised Pokey-mon.

I am really keen to see Okada murder the gently caress out of Styles after Styles' promo on Invasion Attack, so I guess they did a drat good job with it.

Bullet Club took pictures with him doing their gang poses, so I guess he's in.

Anderson's already been tweeting that he's in charge of the Bullet Club with Bad Luck tweeting his support to Anderson. So AJ is probably going to be used like the Young Bucks, comes over, does poo poo under the BC banner and then reps it on the US indies.

Anderson being the new Boss makes he and Gallows retaining the tag belts make a lot more sense to me now, though that could also easily be explained by the fact that Goto is the greatest choke artist since David Carradine.

I would assume Nakamura would be the face in that situation, he strikes me as being more believable as the "good" guy than Okada.

That said, based on crowd reaction alone during Ishii/Naito I, I thought that Ishii was a super babyface and Naito a sniveling heel, so... :shrug:

I think it's cool that NJPW has decided every major iPPV of the year will include a WMOTYC as well as at least one MOTYC.

So the Gracies are confirmed as being on every show then, yeah?

He broke the announcer's heart last night :smith:

In all seriousness that was a genuinely great moment, the commentary sounded excellent even though I couldn't understand a word of it, and the crowd was aghast at the betrayal.

Gonna get that purely for Ricochet/Ibushi, everything else is just a bonus.

Also there will be a Bad Luck Fale match too, I guess :geno:

Voices of Wrestling translated the G-1 sub-site and has the entire G-1 Climax schedule on their site: http://www.voicesofwrestling.com/2014/06/21/njpw-g1-climax-24-schedule/

Seems like there are more off days this year along with not having everyone have a G-1 match each show.

This is a shame. What made NJPW accessible was being able to click a link to the show and then click a button that said,"Buy this show" and then you'd bought the show and could watch it. Anything more complicated than that and I know that for myself at least, I just won't bother - jumping through hoops to pay to watch something is just an exercise in frustration.

Jeff might wanna rethink that strategy, I could see NJPW pulling out of their partnership if GFW associates themselves with him.

Yeah, he better just do it in secret and lie about it.

Okada announced the establishment of “The Rainmaker Foundation,” a children’s cancer charity. He personally will donate $300 every time he wins a match using the rainmaker retroactive from the start of 2014.

Retroactively making AJ Styles even more of a heel!
