great match. bit surprised they had kota lose his first defense but i think they feel he's been solidified with the dome wins and becoming the first champ of a new lineage.

Hey Gedo, EVIL was a really weak champion, perhaps the weakest you've had in like a decade!

books Ospreay to win the loving title

I get why people don't like it but it doesn't just elevate Ospreay but also the rest of United Empire by association. Let's have Henare & Cobb win the Tag straps. There's a new name at the top of the cards who is absolutely over with the Japanese crowds. And unlike in the EVIL era, the title matches are going to be really good.

They got here terribly, with the attacking Bea angle, Ospreay's actively bad heel promos, Naito's lovely & pointless reign, but I think the end result will be good.

Read the Puroresu thread to see my weekly schedule that will tell you! (Today they had a show start at the same time as this, yesterday they had one start 30 minutes later, some times they do earlier shows)

I just think it's funny that New Japan crowned a British world champion after like 30 years of WWE people promising they'll be the first British champion and then never doing it.

Feels really weird that this switch means we're still not getting the big Ibushi/Tanahashi match they've been teasing since forever

tana just needs to vanquish the gaijin rear end in a top hat at the dome like he did a couple years ago first. he def needs one reign with the new belt...

Yeah it's lovely, but from a pure business standpoint this is most likely a good move. Ospreay is a far more credible champion and they've turned around the Dumbpire from kinda floundering to the new top heel faction.

Oh well. It was a good and well wrestled match.

But the result does lessen my enthusiasm for their shows. Not remove it entirely, but certainly lessen it.

I could see that being G1 finals because they won't be able to resist Tana getting a small run with the new belt.
