Wait, had Dragon Dia been announced before now? I don't recall seeing his name.

Sad for Taguchi but I've heard Dia mentioned a lot in the MOTY thread so looking forward to seeing him in action!

He's pretty fantastic, although he's also probably the smallest guy in the tournament. But yeah, he is a pretty spectacular high flyer.

I still can't believe that Gedo is serving up BUSHI vs HAYATA in the single most mid wrestling match ever booked

Someone in NJPW must be really high on Drilla. He’s booked as a monster and actually got a pin on Naito. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him in the BoSJ finals

It's not that kind of test.
Jr. tag title match was great!

Jr. title match was less great.

NJPW is a land of contrasts.

Dog barking promo was very amusing. That should be the War Dogs's entrance music.

Maybe DOUKI wins BoSJ to get revenge?

when was the last time someone lost in challenging for the Jr. title pre-BOSJ in the same year, won BOSJ, and proceeded to win the title? KUSHIDA vs Hiromu in 2017 was it?

Yeah and it was topped off by the fact that Hiromu rans Kushida out of the gym in that pre-BOSJ match.

no if they're telling the truth in the release about the contents of the drive

the fact that the info was on a physical drive in the first place is wild to me, I wonder if that's an anachronistic thing unique to Japan like how the older generations still cling to fax machines

Yeah it's because of the way they have people access the fan club I believe. They literally carry a little usb around with all the membership numbers and at fan club events the members are cross checked against the data on the drive. Gotta be better ways of doing it.

But yes all it's got are names, dob and membership numbers. In fact it's only open to Japanese people anyway so unless mjeff is Japanese he's probably OK.
