That is definitely a big arena. Gonna have a good night in JO Hall with my posting pals.

I love this crowd already. They are hotter for an opening match full of seniors than WWE crowds are for most matches.

First time I've noticed this, but why is the ring crew composed entirely of white guys? Are they dojo trainees or actual hired workers?

Got a good feeling about Honma tonight. Putting down 100 yen on Honma to pick up the victory.

Young Bucks are like HBK circa 1992?

They are the new Rockers. (A proper representation, not one with freaking Al Snow)

to say nothing of the quality of the match, that wasnt remotely shoot style

It's the closest thing we're going to get on a big stage so I'll take what I can get.

who runs out to drive away the bucks. Shelly?

Maybe Ricochet since he's the next challenger.

You can always tell who's a great seller when you have to legitimately question whether they are actually hurt or not.

I misjudged my timings and just woke up halfway through the Omega - Kushida match. Any must-watch matches from before that I should catch up on later?

Shibata-Sakuraba is probably the only must-watch but the whole card has been very good so far.

From those reactions it seems like AJ Styles is currently the most over wrestler in Japan.

I hate the Kingdom so much. Why can't we have Adam Cole and literally anyone else instead.

the finish to that was great but the rest was like the most generic new japan main event possible

That's what I thought too. Quite underwhelming up until the finish.

Wow, clean win off only one Rainmaker. Kind of surprised, but still a great match.
