LOL at them announcing this against AJPW announcing the Champion Carnival. Way to steal the headlines.

Honestly, based on the quality of the cards since the return, I'm way more hype for CC than G1 this year.

Out of the team of Ibushi, Tanahashi, and Wato, Milano has the highest expectations for Wato

And let's be honest here who can blame him

It's also 19, which suggests 10 per block for 9 matches per block plus one day of finals

Wonder who'll replace the overseas-based wrestlers if they aren't allowed back in by then?

Jado. He's in both blocks this year.

Missed the finish watching the Champion Carnival field reveal. 2 blocks of 5. So that's the smallest field since 2008 (which had a Suwama vs Tanahashi final) & no outsiders, all regular AJPW wrestlers.
