Sorry for another late and half assed thread, but I worked today and was out with friends afterwards. Voices of Wrestling has an excellent preview up here and Lanza and Kraetsch also covered it very well ontheir podcast (skip to 1:37:30 for the Dominion preview)  NJPW Dominion 6.19 Osaka-jo Hall 3:00 AM EDT/8:00 BST TenCozy and Manabu Nakanishi vs. Jay White, Juice Robinson, and David Finlay Togi Makabe, Yoshitatsu, and Captain New Japan vs. Bullet Club (Bad Luck Fale, Hangman (Adam) Page, Yujiro Takahashi) CHAOS (Tomohiro Ishii and YOSHI-HASHI) vs. L.I.J (SANADA and BUSHI) Hirooki Goto vs. EVIL IWGP Jr Heavyweight Tag Championship Elimination Match:Matt Sydal and Ricochet(c) vs. reDRagon vs. RPG Vice vs. Young Bucks IWGP Jr Heavyweight Championhip:KUSHIDA(c) vs. Will Ospreay IWGP Heavyweight Tag Championship:Guerillas of Destiny(c) vs. Briscoe Brothers NEVER Openweight Championship:Yugi Nagata(c) vs. Katsuyori Shibata IWGP IC Championship Ladder Match:Kenny Omega(c) vs. Michael Elgin IWGP Heavyweight Championship:Tetsuya Naito(c) vs. Kazuchika Okada What you consider that they're missing four of their top five pushed guys from last year at this time it's amazing how stacked this card is. All four of the top singles matches have the chance to deservedly end up in the MOTY thread. The main event should be amazing(albeit marred with interference  ) and the IC an interesting spectacle, but honestly I'm looking forward to the Jr and NEVER title matches more. I personally enjoyed KUSHIDA/Ospreay I more than Ospreay/Ricochet, and Shibata vs. the third gen guys has easily been one of the most entertaining and well booked feuds anywhere this year..As a bonus a usually very hot Osaka crowd in the second largest building the company runs should definitely elevate the show. It's going to very interesting to see how they react to Naito after booing him consistently during his run as a face post injury comeback. What's also cool is that I honestly wouldn't be shocked to see any of the title matches besides the main go either way, and that's unusual for a well booked NJPW show. This seriously has card of the year potential on paper and if you're the type to only stay up or a handful of puro shows a year this is definitely one to try to make an attempt for. Take advantage of the early start and the weekend and enjoy! Thauros fucked around with this message at 04:42 on Jun 19, 2016 |

If I had the day off tomorrow like I was going to I could stay up for this, but I took an extra shift because I'm a doormat so no staying up until 4 AM for me.

Waking up just before the Jr tag match was a good choice. And now this match should be awesome.

I wonder if they told Ospreay to tone down the swearing. I haven't heard a single motherfucker from him.

The beginning of this show was exactly what it needed to be but both Jr matches were kinda disappointing. KUSHIDA/Ospreay was good but that's underwhelming after ten first match. Should pick up for Shibata/Nagata

Unless these final 3 matches take forever, this is going to be a pretty short show. Odd that they chose this one to do no English commentary for and to eliminate intermission.
