That Elgin match was unexpected. Wow. Still rooting for Suzuki, anyway.

Yeah I figured one of the faces and one of the heels was going to win in the last two matches and meet in the semi-finals. Bit bummed about Elgin no, and we're seriously at the point where Hiroshi Tanahashi needs to win a singles match.

At this point I'm sure Evil or Fale is going to the finals. Whether it's Suzuki or Omega that goes over though, I've absolutely no idea.

I think it's gotta be EVIL. It starts to feel like they're testing out the waters with him.

Anyone but Yano and I will be happy.

And I don't even really dislike Yano, but the longer he stays in the tourny the more chance there is for him vs MiSu and I never ever want to see that loving match again.

This definitely seems like the logical conclusion with both Tanahashi and Elgin getting bumped in the first round to me

Seeing how imbalanced this match is makes it more obvious why ZSJ is in the heavyweight division.

I'm doing a presentation on NJPW at an anime convention next week. I'll be doing a PowerPoint covering 2016 and what will likely happen in 2017. My plan is to have about 45 minutes to show a match (or two). Some matches I have considered:

Goto vs Shibata (WK 11)
Naito vs Tanahashi (WK 11)
Ospreay vs Ricochet (BotSJ)
Omega vs Okada

My issue with the last match is its long. I think having two shorter matches will make it more interesting because you'll get more variety. Any thoughts or other match recommendations?

Presentation went great except for the guy who kept asking me what I thought about WWE things. Also unsurprisingly Everyone loved Ricochet and Ospreay but seemed a bit bored by Naito and Tanahashi.
