Yeah, it's the semi-main

 

[Alexa]

Yeah, it's the semi-main

Ah. It is the main match i want to watch given how both men work and how their gimmicks are

 

[Chris]

Same, surprised it's not main event over Taiji/Zayne but they've treated Zayne like a crazy big deal

 

[Alexa]

Yeah, kind of noticed that as well, which is fine even though i think Ace is the better than Zayne and fits the Super Junior scene a bit better. And plus, Ace's moves aren't named a fast-food place, so maybe Taco Bell is a big deal in Japan, lol.

Yeah I'm intrigued by it cause I didn't expect it either lol maybe the way he showed up all dripped out in his sauce suit at the press conference just made everyone over there mark out

Bruh Kevin Kelly really doubling up on both the attendance and World viewership free cards on that NJPW card game lmao he is addicted

Saturday Afternoon a perfect time to watch some New Japan. The 19th Show has been so far my favorite of the Super Junior it felt like every Match was damn good hopefully as I watch today's Show it hits that mark with me as well. Ace vs Hiromu how can you not knock it outta the park with that one.

 

[Chris]

Just finished Ace/Hiromu myself and it was awesome

Lovely. ELP asking Kevin Kelly what was that via Lindaman when it was a simple Arm Drag.

 

[Chris]

Zayne/Ishimori was REALLY good too. Liked today's show quite a bit even if Sho/Connors was annoying

 

[Alexa]

even if Sho/Connors was annoying

How so?

 

[Chris]

How so?

They didn't touch the ring forever cause Sho was just doing dumb house of torture stuff lol once they got going it was fine
