Yeah, More Big tag matches! Who are they against?

Brian Kendrick and Trent? (Baretta) are their first opponents in the jr tag league. The bucks are the newest members of the Bullet Club.

King of pro wrestling was also good. Okada vs Tana was five stars. And Swagamura vs Marafuji was so full of swag. Ishii vs Shibata was also good but not as good as their G1 match.

I Need to watch King of Pro Wrestling...I Did hear it was good. Also, Didn't Forever Hooligans lose their Titles to Taka and Taichi, Was it?

Yup yup. Freshens it up a bit I guess but the Jr division is pretty dead since they don't have that much talent in it (Hooligans, Taichi and Taka, Taguchi out with an injury, some rookie I don't remember the name of, Kushida, injured shelley and now Ibushi). And none are used for singles. They need to step it up on that front. The tag league is a good way to start. Keep an eye on guys and bring back those that impress.

Watched it on Wednesday, was very good. Main Event was awesome (though not 5 stars for me), and the rest was good. Ishii and Shibata was nowhere near their epic G1 match, but they still managed to brutally hurt each other.

I think I'm about halfway through it now. Life atm doesn't allow for constant wrassling watching since I am preparing to move halfway cross the country.
