Spoiler

SANADA left LIJ after beating Naito in the quater finals, join Taichi and J4G

Faction is now Just 5 Guys

the fuck lol

 

[Chris]

Finally some SANADA development though thank fucking God

 

[Chris]

Oh thank fuck I just saw Davis beat EVIL too. Much better match for SANADA tho I will say having a NEW SANADA vs EVIL match did intrigue me for a split second until I read full results lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

SANADA might win the whole thing now tbh

 

[Chris]

SANADA might win the whole thing now tbh

I had a feeling he might anyway even before this bc they are always trying to push him but I worried losing to Okada (again) would just be pointless. But now that him and Finlay both have new stuff going on it feels fresh than just another SANADA title challenge

 

[Chris]

I have been expecting him to beat Naito at least this whole time bc Naito is just broken rn and needs to rest for a bit IMO, dude us killing himself. Ospreay and SANADA had some history so I'd been expecting that in the semis but wasn't sure how it'd go, obviously Davis isn't gonna win now tho

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Welp I guess the Match with Naito and Sanada has bene spoiled for me. I put my Chips on the side of Naito but I did think about when Sanada and Taichi were giving each other respect after their Match together. Kevin Kelly talked about how close they are and if they should go for the Tag Titles so hearing Sanada is now with Just 5 Guys really makes me happy. It might finally mean Taichi have a purpose in New Japan again but I would say what will LIJ do now losing one Member?

Oh excellent, I haven't been watching so I didn't realize it had been kind of set up. I like the move anyway but I thought it was kinds random.

I think LIJ is gonna be fine tho, without EVIL and with Naito, SANADA was really treading water in the group

Oh my God Taguchi in Khan Cosplay

Yeah Sanada vs Taichi was fire. It's still in my Top 3 even though my homie Taichi loss that one.

What the fuck is this Submission Khan is he dry humping Taguchi?

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Oh my God Khan what are you grabbing at inside the pants of Taguchi after the Match? OH GOD

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Welp if it wasn't locked in before Suzuki vs KENTA for the NJ Strong Title is happening after being pinned. I think those two need to fight each other in a Zoo.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

EVIL calling Davis a fuckin loser because he has Empire buddies with him. BIG MISTAKE SUICIDE DIVE!

 

[Kairi HoHo]

EVIL did the flipping Table spot sort of in front with Kevin and Chris!
