Charlton is great because after all these years I never knew about the reason why ZSJ switches submissions so fast.

indeed, i liked that comment of his a lot too, stuck with me.

Shooter's going to slowly lean into the Kamen Rider gimmick to get that push from President Tanahashi.

Shingo is so, so loving good. It's easy to forget that sometimes.

yeah he does EVERYTHING right.

he also elevates his opponents every time, unless they don't need to be elevated, in which case he elevates the match. one of the best dudes doing it today.

really great match. Tama took some pretty dangerous bumps off a couple of those lariats, earned the win.

I've got high hopes for this match based on how great their last one was.

Never seen a Dolph Ziggler match but always heard he was good.

I don't watch much NJPW anymore, is Tacos bad still or has he got better?

yeah, he's found himself in Bishamon, they're a legitimately great tag team now.

curious where he goes, HHH has tried to recruit him for the last eight years or so but If he goes to AEW he could hold on to the NEVER belt there a while.

Yeah it was dumb House of Torture crap but then the table spot and how Coughlin ended up through the table almost made it all worth it.


match was both trashy and amazing at the same time. loved it.

hopefully we'll get the real mox vs ospreay showdown in AEW.

Gonna miss ospreay. can't believe it was going on 8 years ago first saw him vs Kushida and was blown away. It's been great seeing him grow into the wrestler he is today, all the while it often seemed liked he did his absolute loving best to make himself as utterly unlikeable as possible outside the ring. .

English commentary is trying to do this but Charlton loses his cool when he thinks about Muto and starts spitting mad poo poo :allears:
I had to switch to Japanese commentary but this match has had what I thought were homages to the mutoh takada dome classic. Is it just my imagination or is Chris talking about it too?

really enjoyable show top to bottom, for sheer in ring work Bryan vs Okada was match of the night for me, Bryan got some poo poo out of Okada emotionally I've never quite seen before and I love them both for that. But for the larger story; of course the main event ending is what this was all about. My spouse is the biggest Naito fan in the universe and they were literally crying tears of joy.

Naito triumphant in the tokyo dome was as over as any wrestler on planet earth in 2024.I need to watch the replay just to see the crowd reactions when Naito won because I was bracing myself for the fuckery I expected Gedo to deliver....

in all the joy of Naito finally FINISHING THE STORY I also want to point out that I thought Uemura looked incredible and outshone both Narita and Yota today. He's got a young babyface charm to him that's not really been common in wrestling since the 1980s. If he can talk he should be a star. Shooter looked great too, dude has really learned a lot in the last year being around vets. I saw him doing small things in the ring today in terms of placement and transitions that his dojo mates seemingly haven't picked up yet.

As always, it's a pleasure to watch at the same time as you wonderful goons. Cheers!
