Well, gently caress. Didn't see Shibata or Ishii going over. I guess Shibata's going to win the whole thing, and he's going after Okada. I'm so glad that sexting doesn't get you a depush in New Japan in TYOOL 2017.

Good, I never liked the idea of Kenny winning this tournament in the first place. Now he can win the belt at Dominion or Night 2 of the LA shows.

I predict Juice upsetting Shibata and getting and Evil vs Juice finals. Juice also beats Sanada to work his way through LIJ's ranks.

I wonder how the higher ups in WWE and NJPW feel if they see this poo poo and realise Kota would rather be doing this than working for them.

I wasn't having a pretty lovely day and then I watched Ishii bust out a frankensteiner so all is well. Some big surprises in that first round. My prediction of Elgin/Omega in the finals went to poo poo so now I want EVIL and my boy Katsuyori to tear it up. Gedo is clearly a man who fucks, so maybe Shibata's chappin will finally get him that world title push.

Caught up last night, Kenny vs Ishii was absolutely nuts and I kinda wish the fall had come on the lariat. Still a good finish though.

Controversial opinion: Yujiro is becoming less poo poo than he has been in years. I'm not going as far as to say he's even remotely good, but he's starting to show signs of not being utter shite.

Hot take: I can't stand Toru Yano EDIT: Except when he tagged with Ishii. I loved Ishii's total disdain for him as they would continue to win matches. SalTheBard fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Mar 14, 2017 |

Yano is so good, that's the best comedy match I've seen in a long time. "Count! Count! Count!"

I like him because the only thing he brings to the table is being able to gently caress with anyone. He's not like a WWE style heel that only knows "powder during babyface fire" and "look vaguely confused while brutalizing a babyface." More like the old school memphis/southern style heels that knew just the right trick at the right time.

Also Yano even named his autobiography "I know NOTHING about pro wrestling," so he's pretty grounded about it all.
