NJPW Best of Super Juniors 30 - May 12 - May 28, 2023

[Chris]

And Taguchi taps, what a fun fucking 3 minute match bro lmao

 

[Chris]

Why tf do these announcers keep talking about an onion

 

[Chris]

I believe I've only seen a couple Dan Maloney matches when he had some NXT UK losses

 

[Chris]

Oh yeah he had a Royal Quest II match

 

[Chris]

"What do you think, onion? "Ah an onion of few words"

 

[Chris]

Damn good debut win for Maloney

 

[Chris]

It's Douki time

 

[Chris]

Kushida's only two singles losses in the last year are to Darby Allin for the TNT title and Steve Maclin for the Impact world title, crazy

 

[Chris]

Kushida is being a dick so the crowd is now all behind Douki I'm not alone

 

[Chris]

OH MY GOD they just did the spot where they spammed like 40 pin combos in a row and I bit on like 8 of them as the finish

 

[Chris]

DOUKI FUCKING DID IT

 

[Chris]

That was fucking amazing

 

[Chris]

Wato starts off with a win too, good match with Akira. Worried about him and Douki starting with wins bc either might be the guys that have the lead early before dropping a lot at the end and not making the finals lol they love their comeback tournament wins after people dropped their first couple

 

[Chris]

Kevin: "is that a wrench in his [Sho's] hand?"

Chris: "Maybe he's just happy to see you"

I'm dying

 

[Chris]

As much as I hate it, the house of Torture shenanigans match might be necessary for this tournament since it's on such a short schedule, gives them a breather match with heat instead of having to go hard lol I say that but Lio still is going hard, but I more mean later on in the tournament
