Marty Scurll and Will Ospreay put on another classic. What a match.

Well... after Liger's entrance, I dozed off. I'll breathe with the Knife Pervert and watch that later, but so far only have seen the junior match. Ospreay matches are often pretty hit or miss with me, but he does tend to really work well with Marty. That was a solid one.
I forgot the Bucks got new music, but that's what happens when they work even less than Omega. Has Tama Tonga been celebrating winning the 6-man titles for 6 week and not bothered going to the gym?
Cody coming for all the belts.
Cokada time
That powerbomb by Ishii was fucking ridiculous
Time for Cody All Belts?
Juice with one of the worst title reigns of all time. Wins the belt, tied for last in the G1, loses the title in his first defense to someone OTHER than one of the SIX dudes he lost to in the G1. What the hell man...
For all the booking direction that people love about NJPW, most titles are hot garbage this year.
The exceptions are the Heavyweight and Junior singles titles. Maybe the heavyweight tag titles too, though I'm not sure what to say about the reign the Bucks had. Their matches against LIJ and GoD were all at least very good, but since Dominion, the only times they had a match in Japan were at Budokan. Either way, LIJ as tag champs were headlining with Okada and Goto for basically the whole New Beginning tour, so I'll say the title has been overall good this year.
IC, US, and NEVER titles were all somewhat fine for basically the first 4-5 months of the year, but that's about it. 6man titles have almost always been a joke and keep finding their way to the tag team champions, which is a continual stroke of genius. Jr Tag division is 2 teams and even though their stables have mentioned either recruiting or expanding, if Ishimori and Bushi are in the tag league, it may just be temporary partners like some others.
Goto didn't defend against any of the 6 people he lost to in the G1 either, but he also had to not only lose his title to Taichi, but also had to lose it to Elgin for a week for reasons. It's a shame, because that seemed like an anomaly until Goto was losing everything in the G1.
Some people seem certain that Ospreay is going heavyweight, especially after tonight. Great...
FYI, this weeks table for 3 is a 3MB reunion. Would laugh like hell if Jinder and Drew bring a copy of the Smackdown and NXT championship belts with them.
Slater can bring tag championship!
Weirdest fucking rant by Baron Corbin on Roman not having any authority to make title matches. So he makes it non-title vs Ziggles to somehow spite him?
Damn Liv got kicked so hard by Botch mode Brie that her hair turned pink.
LMAO Elias got the crowd on fire.
YOOOOOO Elias and this crowd!!! LOL
This has to be his craziest response ever lmao.
Roman's the kind of guy who cries about getting title matches, so maybe somehow that makes sense? I don't know.
lol @ this segment. It sounded like they were laughing at the line about the basketball team at first, then slowly started to decide that he was making fun of them and HATE him.
Would that heat be rated nuclear yet? Thats been like 5 min straight of booing.
What’s the story with the Sonics leaving Seattle? I only loosely follow basketball.
The team wanted a new stadium or major upgrades to it (they're in their building tonight) but the city wouldn't bite. Something like that.
edit: apparently just this past week, they approved a $700 million upgrade to the building. Ouch.
There's something very sad about seeing HBK with no hair
