DEMANDED that Liger enter the ring and raise his hand. Liger eventually came in, stood by his side, reached for his wrist.... and Naito then casually strolled away.

Liger went and grabbed a chair from the crowd :lol:

Noooo my perfect night of predictions :gonk:

But holy gently caress what a match, even if I hadn't predicted it I still would have wanted Despy to win that after Okada did the arrogant false-finish. Okada - like Tanahashi - is a master of figuring out exactly when to play heel.

Night 1 was incredible. 8/8 so far. All downhill from here.

SG Bamboo

7/8 for night 1 (drat you Naito) and the show was a very easy watch. Main event ruled, Hash pulled a fun match out of a mannequin and Taichi/Yano gave me some chuckles.

I was also unreasonably happy that Naito deemed Big Yuj enough of a threat to wrestle without a shirt, without the HoT interference I thought it was a real swell match.

The usual HoT bullshit made me dislike the match but Naito's post-match shenanigans were fantastic, especially the way he hosed with Liger.
