Quickly polling some friends and they all think if its Okada v Omega for the belt at MSG, its cant miss for them. Definitely cant miss for me.

How do people do this with these stupid loving ROH shows every time

It'll be marty scurll vs hiromu or some bullshit. Okada will be in a six man tag where Yoshi Hashi pins a briscoe to kickstart his resurgence

Like come on three loving months ago a bunch of people went to SuperCard of Honor instead of the best NXT show in recent memory and were rewarded with Dalton Castle def Marty Scurll (31:37)

ROH booked a show at MSG and WWE forced MSG to cancel it.

Ah Vince I unironically love when you’re still carny as gently caress.

I am sooooooooooooooooooo down for this. Granted I’m a little nervous buying tickets so far ahead of a show (injuries and all). I hope they took into account Cow Palace sales and potential price adjustments.

it's a madison square garden show on wrestlemania weekend; it will be the most expensive show NJPW or ROH has ever run in America

It being in MSG may make Gedo crack out a couple big matches but tbh I wouldn't expect much, especially if Delirious is booking the whole thing.

Like the fact that it's being explicitly advertised as a NJPW x RoH show from the get go right down to the name being G1 Supercard means something. NJPW should have more of an active presence than they did at SoH this year, but maybe not MUCH more.

I'd actually expect Naito vs Cody as the main event. If they're pushing it as ROH vs NJPW, you book the ROH champ vs the IWGP champ.

Do the G2 on the undercards with like Taichi, Chase Owens, Hikuleo, Honma, Tanga Loa, Finlay and Henare. Winner gets to be in next year's G1.

Speaking of - it's the day before the G1 and we still have no idea what the undercards are. I guess Hiromu's absence is causing some headaches of what to do with Naito/SANADA tag matches on Block A days.

If that does happen it's a major letdown but I've got to think given the venue everyone is on board with bringing the S tier game. My money is on a proper dream match on top or IWGP title.

The fact they clear have New Japan's name means we should expect a good dream match but who knows with ROH

Comedy answer is Vince just spite signs all the Foreign talent to multi million dollar deals to screw with even and stack Takeover (This is what will happen)

That date is right around when Sakura Genesis will fall so either the NJC winner demands the shot in MSG or the show won't be getting a serious title match. Sort of like how the Cow Palace show had no card until after Dominion.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Kind of awkward listening to commentary from even just a few weeks ago where they were putting Takahashi over as someone who would metaphorically break his own neck just to do a bit of damage to his opponent. It's not like it was Takahashi's fault this time, but if he returns I hope he slows down his style a bit and is less of a danger to his own body so he doesn't end up becoming like Shibata.

I feel like they'd need to be VERY sure Omega's not re-signing or that Suzuki's hanging it up before they push Zack that hard.

They, uh, already pushed him that hard in the New Japan Cup. And he just beat Okada at the RevPro show so there's a logical rubber match to build to. I'd say he's already at the level where he can be seen as a credible block winner.

I'm not too confident on my A Block predictions, but I will stand by my B Block, and Tonga in particular standing out as a threat thanks to the Firing Squad stuff (something I would not have predicted I'd lean towards going into my picks :stare: ) and doubly particularly by my man YTR screwing Tonga out of a G1 Finals visit :haw:

We talked about why doesn't NJPW tour the rest of the country a few weeks ago and the G1 Supercard show gives a solid answer:

Why should NJPW throw shows in the MidWest and East coasts on their dime when ROH happily does it for them?
