So, we have Okada and presumably Yoshi on one side, and Switchblade on Gedo on the other. That leaves:

Best Friends, Ospreay and Rocky are probably sticking with Okada. I want to believe Sho and Yoh won't abandon Rocky but the Switchblade may have gotten into their heads so i'm not convinced.

After how much of a drag the Bullet Club break up and then subsequent 2nd break up ended up being i'm kinda surprised that i'm looking forward to seeing what comes from this. Maybe it's just because Cody attacking Kenny wasn't even half as emotional a moment as Gedo killing his son, or maybe i'm just programmed to be invested in any feud Okada's involved in. Whatever the case i'm excited to see where this goes.

I thought Yoshi tripped, then saw all the blood once he got into the ring so thought he may have just stopped to blade before getting in. Poor guy.

I really can't see any of the Chaos people splitting off with Jay White apart from Gedo/Jado. Everyone else already hates him.

It's either side with someone successful who you hate, or side with a guy who's now lost everything and is in the middle of losing to everyone

Best Friends and Yano I completely trust to be smart enough to know who will help them continue to advance up the ranks

It helps that everyone in Chaos is a good wrestler, who I want to see matches from. As opposed to Tama Tonga and Cody.

I'm torn about them doing the Okada/Gedo split before the heel turn. On the one hand, it works as justification, Gedo turns on Okada because not only is he losing, but he's decided he's 'too good' for Gedo. On the other hand, it would've been a bigger shock had they done this angle first.

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
Just finished watching Kobe. Good show, glad they finally pulled the trigger on a Chaos split rather than just having Knife Pervert cost them tag matches and yell at Rocky and Yoshi-Hashi for 4 more months.

Best Friends, Ospreay, Yano, and Rocky are probably sticking with Okada. Jado going with Gedo is a no-brainer and if R3K don't ditch Rocky to join up with Switchblade I will be legitimately shocked. Goto and Ishii I could see going either way but I bet Ishii will probably stick with Okada and Goto will either bail on both groups or go with Jay and Gedo.

I dunno. I could see Yano going with Jay based on him being more true to the CHAOS than YTR and Nakamura started.

just finished watching it and poor Yoshi-Hashi. Dude just isn't good at his job.

Match was great, not their best but who cares. I do think I need to swap back to Japanese commentary for the main events though. The English booth is good but they don't have that energy that the JP booth has.

Dude I cannot believe Yoshi-Hashi shoot busted himself open when he was going to do his big heroic save angle.

I wonder if it was gonna be any different if he hadn't hurt himself. The segment has to end with Switchblade and Gedo standing tall, but Yoshi probably would've gotten a little more than that before he was cut off.

Also nobody's talking about this, Gedo and Switchblade's biggest crime is denying us Air Guitar and AIIIIIIIISHTEMASU and then streamers :mad:

There's a tiny part of me that wonders if Tacos wasn't supposed to be the one to turn on Okada and blast him with a chair, and then he tripped and Gedo just facepalmed and went "I'll do it myself, for gently caress's sake".

Nah, he was helping Okada up before Switchblade doinked him with the chair.

I see no one's commented on this but Yoshi's fall got edited out of the NJPWWorld vod. It's the same shot but heavily zoomed in on Jay.

Definitely Tacos. He messed up his own big moment while Titus was just a throwaway entrant in a rumble. Titus' is funnier, though, because YOSHI legit hurt himself which turns it from hilarious to sad.

I'm confused as to why the replay was initially a full show but is now chopped into individual matches. I much prefer the former so I don't have to get up and switch after each match. Plus the full shows seem to stream better for me.

Yeah, it's live on World, and then the following Friday on AXS. Hopefully this means JR and Kevin will do the commercial bumpers in post and the show can be paced more normally.

I just finished watching the replay. I didn't see it live but I noticed the weird zoom in on Jay White and gathered from the audience reaction that Yoshi ate poo poo. Made for a perfect moment
