[Comrade Khan]

[Wiseman]

How was the women's match itself tho, I was expecting it to possibly be second best after Kenny/Will fairly easily if they gave it respectable time and/or pace

It was a decent match.

The Jr HW was fucking nuts too though, they made Wato look like superman

crazy, he's improved so much this last year

 

[Chris]

Him and Yoshi Hashi benefited the most from getting more reps by necessity when a ton of people weren't in Japan bc of the pandemic

the match was essentially built to make him look like the next star in a loss. was awesome, great false finishes

I think they wanted this sooner for Wato but he underperformed, now he's ready

[Chris]

Hiromu and Okada winning at WK are the safest bets ever lol

 

[Chris]

But he'd actually be away from the title for a minute this time so I'm cool with this one, I think I read Despy might be leaving soon?
