I always loved basically any Kenny Omega/Yano match because Omega clearly enjoys all the comedy stuff

One of my favorites being when Yano piled up a bunch of turnbuckle pads in the center of the ring (Yano's weapon of choice) and then slammed Kenny onto them

I liked it in New Japan when Yano & Colt tagged together for World Tag League. That was wholesome

Also, in 2020 this happened: Colt Cabana & Toru Yano vs. Rock 'n' Roll Express (Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson)

I wound up having a minority opinion about an outcome I thought was completely obvious so this will be another case of letting my bias get the better of me.

Yano's on the pape he's coming out after Mox wins the main and Mox does a 1 for 1 recreation of Steve Austin's reaction to Bret Hart entering the Royal Rumble

The powdered DVD case to start off the 2017 G1 match never fails to make me smile. The super-obvious set-up, the level of effort Yano puts into it, the fact that Kenny still falls for it. It's the best start to a match.

the turnbuckle pad is a very funny weapon. Like i'm sure it's dense, but it's still a pad! Oh yano.

Is there some rumor of this? Itoh was on a show in Fukuoka yesterday so unless she was rushed on a plane like they did Yuka it's a long shot

It already is a Itoh Respect Army vs Pencil Army (?) proxy fight, I think it's too early to call them in anyway.

But it would be cool as hell

Whiffed on which match was opening and whiffed on Suzuki-Gun vs Swerve/Lee because they had been teasing a Swerve turn and I thought they were gonna go further on that tonight. Otherwise nailed it on everything, feeling good.
