Honma and Makabe, yeah! That was a very fun match and seeing Honma win something was a happy moment. Hopefully they get a better run than Meiyu.
On a more important note, SHIBATA/ISHII AT THE DOME PLS MY BODY IS READY ooh::awyeah:

New Japan are getting six man belts. Fuck off with all these unnecessary belts! You aren't even booking 4 of your other belts properly

Oh, come on, Stop. Don't be so sour! We all know you ADORE all those multi-man tags, just like the rest of us. Plus, seeing all these same guys compete against each other 546x a year is never boring! tunga:

 

[Leo C]

Well, Idk, don't think this is going to do much harm. Gedo is going to keep booking 6 man filler all the time, might as well put a belt in there to pretend it matters.

 

[Pop Tatari]

can not watch for some considerable time and still find the same guys in the same position. Kind of boring but whatever okada vs tanahashi 300 should be five stars.

What way can we shove these boring ass tag team matches down everyones throats during the first 2 hours of the show? How about we put up a prize!

GEdo: LONG TERM BOOKING

GEdo: LONG TERM BOOKING

My short term booking: Mullet man gets mysteriously run over hours before WK amd cannot compete for the foreseeable future. Lethal is inserted into the okada/tana fest. He like the gentleman and true champion he is puts the ROH crown on the line. After a jolly good back and forth encounter, Lethal pulls out a double lethal injection on those two tnlol jobbers. Pins both at the same time to win.mass hysteria in the air. :jeritroll: Fans in complete shock.
