The second set of LA shows begins airing tonight at 10:00 PM EDT. The last set provided an intriguing look at the newly promoted Karl Fredericks but these definitely have more stakes. A US version of the New Japan Cup will be aired over three weeks starting tonight and the winner gets a shot at the IWGP US Championship. How exactly this will work is unclear given the pandemic and Jon Moxley's inability to work for other companies on US soil but the field looks interesting. Karl Fredericks vs. KENTA was orginally supposed to take place on the originally scheduled regular New Japan Cup before it had to be postponed.

Much like the last set of tapings these will not be aired live and each episode will be uploaded in its entirety every friday at 22:00 EDT/ 03:00 BST.

just getting a blue mat with a white border alone makes this look way more legit

I feel like something’s missing from these NJC USA matches. KENTA vs Cobb got pretty good towards the end but iunno

much like the regular one no crowd hurts and nothing's been at the level of nagata/suzuki or hiromu/ishii. conditions make it tough, even with how limited japanese crowds are due to the pandemic the clapping still makes a huge difference.

They’re calling this a live stream? Right now it’s a replay of Chris' interview segment.

it appeared as a live stream as opposed to the standard "uploaded complete at 10PM EDT" thing

using the title shot briefcase as the de facto interim us title makes sense given circumstances. not a bad little tournament overall
