Sadly I think he retired that move, due to switching to a more mat based style.

Dumb question but how do I watch the english commentary for shows? I am watching the New Japan Cup Final from March 20th, and I see Kevin Kelly is there, but can only find the japanese commentary.

Usually the shows with English commentary have a separate page but I don't see one for the 3/20 show. That's really weird.

The English version of the cup final is labelled as 3/19 because that's the date it aired in the US with timezones and stuff.

Check out the Cup Final's Japanese commentary if only for Jushin Liger marking out hard at the end of the match. :3:

That lions gate card looks great and it's easily the most compelling one on paper they've booked.

This is def a sign that they're starting to more agressively court western audiences:

That video's also the first time I've seen a pic of what the entirebuilding containing Korakuen Hall looks like. Apparently the 2f is a smaller conference room.

Yeah, I'll trust that George Carroll isn't bullshitting here. Glad I'm going now. Sounds like we're basically getting a New Beginning style double shot only in Long Beach. Part of me is still a little bummed that they're to just doing the actual G1 now tho.

So what do you all think they are going to do with Makabe? His only GBH buddy is going to be gone, possibly forever. I know he's a bit of a celebrity so I don't think he'll join Suzuki-Gun or anything that drastic.

Just stick one of the more ready Young Lions with him. Wait for Honma to return.

Yeah, I see him as essentially being the youngest member of that crew most of the time and like Ten-Cozy he can be moved up the card if necessary for a program. I'm sure he'll still be given something fairly decent at the Dome given his mainstream appeal.

Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.

I searched for tickets the milisecond they went on sale. Front row was already sold out. Now I get a "We were unable to process your request." message.

Scored row 2 Saturday and row 6 Sunday for a 3 set with multiple parties trying.

A four set of friends sitting separately totally struck out and it looks like 3 sets are gone too now for Saturday.

Looks like 3 sets MAYBE can still be had for Sunday but also getting a lot of "we can't process this" notices too. Keep trying for a minute if you're still hunting.

I'm not certain this is sold out and not a ticketmaster issue. I'd keep trying for a while longer to confirm.

E: Try Ticketmaster app. Website allotment is out according to a buddy who's expert at how this stuff works.

I was able to get 2 tickets for Sunday. I got the cheap ones. I had better seats but I'd click buy and Ticketmaster would tell me the seats were no longer available. I haven't dealt with Ticketmaster in years this is awful.

You can find tickets if you open up a new browser. Unfortunately, all the good seats seem to be gone.
