So any bets on what will last longer, the rules explanation, Yano's entrance spiel or the match itself?

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
This is dope.

Dave Meltzer should be a special guest on the american commentary for this.

The Lads had a great match that was really exciting and fun and then, and this will shock you, Dick Togo walked up and started strangling somebody with a garrotte after openly assaulting the referee, and then HoT won.

On the plus side, YOH showed up afterwards to beat SHO's rear end.

Not used to this full cards for njpw shows. Probably not a coincidence that this is the first big show they've sold out of allowed seats this year.

It was a good run, but yeah now they're just going to be a series of matches that end with Togo attacking the ref and then everybody hitting dudes with chairs before the ref counts the pinfall for HoT :sigh:
