Like all US Shows it's a ppv sadly, but the card is p solid and the price (US$19.99) is reasonable.

I wish that match had had a little more time but it was really good regardless. I guess maybe Spooky Lio Rush will get a rematch down the line?

Par for the course for the NJPW STRONG shows, unfortunately. The Chicago show only ended up sounding so good because of how hot the crowd was

I haven't seen tights like that since the attitude era!

If this keeps up it may be Vacquer's best match since the one against Mercedes.

Boy, Ian really has trouble with some names.

Do they do women's matches on NJPW proper shows? Or are they still branded separately?

Very occasionally they'll do an IWGP women's title match (last one was MotN on that show). There was also a tag match on the Fantasticamania tour.
