Yeah I didn't read details so I'll let u watch ut but the main comments I saw I saw

"Can you just let evil wrestle ffs" lol

I just watched the finishing sequence to the main event n it was that classic end match njpw big time finish. Great stuff. Clapping crowds is weird forever tho

CIMA out here in the Ranbo

In the night's first title change, EVIL defeated Tomohiro Ishii to win the NEVER Openweight Championship in a match that included interference from EVIL's Bullet Club House of Torture stablemates Dick Togo, Yujiro Takahashi and SHO, a YOH run-in, two referees, chair shots, and a belt shot.

Lmao just read full results and if Juice woulda done a prediction league I would have gotten like this entire show wrong I'm satisfied with most all of it except EVIL winning tho, Despy retaining and the Chaos duo winning the tag titles are big shocks as well but I'm def cool with both. Also Narita vs Shibata Can't wait until I get to that

 

[Chris]

"they went 12 minutes, changed the rules to a regular match and beat the shit out of each other" . i expect it to be so fkin good.

despy finally beating hiromu is p cool. good for chaos too. gutted for tekkers as they really held that div together thru tumultuous times

Yeah I'm not worried about it and I kinda want singles ZSJ for a bit anyway. Tag division is gonna be hurting if that happens tho

 

[Chris]

Also yeah when I saw the Shibata match was changed to inclide striking I marked the fuck out

Sho vs Yoh and the first 6 man were both fun, all I've watched so far

 

[Leon TrotSky]

I swear NJPW has the coldest product in Japan right now, I blame EVIL

Basically no one was talking about this WK and even Meltzer didn't reslly care

 

[Chris]

Ah that EVIL match wasn't as bad as I was expecting at least, shorter than I expected too thankfully. Still sucked really hard tho lmao but just more standard house of torture stuff, probs one of the worst singles matches in history too for WK tho, at least top 10 but that's more bc they never book shitty singles matches, it's a multiman at least if it's bad lol

Shibata/Narita though

 

[Chris]

Bruh...no fucking way he shoot changed the rules right?
