TAKA is out with a leg injury. He is missing night 10. No mention on the remaining BoSJ that I saw.
Speaking of, just finished night 8 and this tournament is fucking amazing. Bandido/Ospreay and Lee/Takagi were awesome.
It's been a really good tournament overall. The Korakuen/10-match shows were really positioned at a good time. There's another all tournament show tomorrow, but then just 2 single-block shows for each remaining after that. This would often be a real down part of the schedule, but they got hyped crowds and smart matches, not necessarily loaded cards to keep things zipping along well through shows that otherwise could have dragged hard.
The worst stuff is from Kanemaru and DOUKI and more often than not it's kept short and kind of forgettable. Veterans returning to the tournament (TAKA/Rocky) have worked well overall in quite different roles, which is kind of a key too. The injury substitutions are about a wash. Desperado is really good and perpetually underpushed, while DOUKI is not very good. I do not like Flip Gordon, so Narita's been a massive upgrade for me there. Ospreay's truly become the Okada of the BOSJ, though it's not all of his matches and he's not the only culprit. Guys like Gresham/Titan have been good mid-card performers.
Juice Robinson is becoming one of my least favorite members of the New Japan roster, while he might have been one of my top 10 a year or so ago. I can't wait for Time Biker to beat his ass.
So who else is gonna be all in tonight? I got the PPV already ordered, just counting down the hours ^^
I'll be watching DoN. Preshow with Kip Sabian vs Sammy Guevara should be good and the BR was really fun at All In.
I want to, but honestly I'm not paying 50 fucking bucks for a one off wrestling show in 2019.
I should be home to catch the last few matches, but yeah, I’m streaming that shit lol.
discord y'all!
Fuck it, not like I'm poor.
Battle Royal was kinda meh, but Kip Sabian vs Sammy Guevara was fun. The fucking cuts that are missing spots is giving me WWE flashbacks though.
FUCK YES!
This may be the most neon wrestling match I've ever seen.
Jack Evans still bumping like a madman at 37.
I fucking love Aja Kong.
EDIT So glad that Hikaru, Ryo, Riho, Aja, Emi, and Yuka got to show how good women's wrestling could be. The American scene is so far behind because of people like Moolah not letting more talented people get ahead and the WWE going for softcore pornstars.
This is an uncomfortable amount of blood
Edit : fantastic match but jesus that was an so much blood
Aight that promo from Cody got me.
Bret fucking Hart, man. What a great person to do this.
