This was pretty much a tag version of their singles match at the Bukodan.

Was that the first time Nick and Ibushi touched since the CHIKARA 4-way years ago?

If this ends with Cody suddenly realizing he has alienated everybody and the entire rest of Bullet Club has abandoned him, I'll be so happy

I mean not only did they just have one of the best New Japan Cups ever and made a new top guy in ZSJ they also just had one of the best Tag Matches and the Ishii/Okada vs ZSJ/Suzuki match was so good

That main event was exhausting in the best way possible. I must have bit on like three of the false finishes because I'd totally spaced on the Golden Trigger despite it having been teased earlier in the match. Goddamn.

I just unfollowed him. I don't even disagree that this wasn't the best tag match like people are making out, but doing the whole "you are wrong for liking things" shtick is dorky as gently caress.

The guy once tried to claim Yoshi-HASHI is a better wrestler than Omega. He's at best a troll.

I see this a lot on Wrestling Twitter, the attitude of "heh you don't criticize New Japan like you criticize WWE HYPOCRITES :smug:" and it's loving weird.

Like, yes, we know NJPW has flaws, but their good stuff is more than good enough to cancel it out. The booking always has a long-term focus and has earned the benefit of the doubt, unlike WWE. Also context, and standards, and better camera work (tonight notwithstanding) and a billion other things I don't feel like getting into right now.

It seems like people got so used to making GBS threads on WWE they feel they have to do it with other promotions just to be "fair and objective." Which is a load of horseshit, obviously.

Yeah, the weird insistence that NJPW fans should be like that breed of WWE "fans" who are needlessly hypercritical of everything WWE does instead of just not watching the show if they hate it so much is a real headscratcher.

THE LIAR
I took a look at Bix's twitter for a few seconds and this is some of the most blatant reply trolling I've seen in a while.

What I've seen of him, he just seems like an extremely unlikable dude in general and this isn't changing that notion at all.

Also I hope Omega speaking cleanly and calmly in the post-match promo because he wasn't speaking to a crowd of 99% Japanese people blew Bix's head off.

Great show! So stoked for the Cow Palace news. Anyone thinking of traveling to SF? I have plenty of recommendations and can organize a Meetup.

Cow palace holds 12-13k. I think to have a shot at selling it out they'd need to bring in some big lucha names and super cheap nosebleed tickets

I hope they do Rush vs Parka or maybe Parka and Okada vs Rush and Naito. I'd pop for that.

I'd love to go to Cow Palace but my financial situation isn't good enough for flight/hotel to the Bay Area :(

Now if they ran a show in Seattle, I'd definitely carve out time/money for the bus rides.
