I couldn't find anyone willing to fly to CA with me for a wrestling show despite having a place to stay and a car secured for free. This is the life of a wrestling fan.

Shows sold out. Good on them.

They are setting it up for 3,000 so don't buy secondary market tickets as there are plenty of seats to open.

Wonder if this was always the plan or if a spot opened up when Honma got hurt. Either way, its a great challenge for him and hope he has a good tourney.

I'd love it if Makabe had another match with Okada at some point, if only because their match from Dominion 2013 is one of my favourite matches of all time. Otherwise, poo poo, idk. I don't think he should have another HC run. Maybe an IC run at some point.

I would guess that was always in the cards and not contingent on Honma breaking.

row 7 section P day 1, row 13 section Q day 2


What sucks is that I missed out on a meet and greet ticket as I thought that was for those not going to the actual wrestling. Hopefully I can grab one later somehow.

I'm not sure if I'm correct but I think you'll be able to pay the ten bucks day of the show as long as you have a ticket already and you can still do the meet and greet.

Wasn't satisfied with my Saturday tickets so I kept trying and succeeded in getting some better ones during the mad dash. So I have an extra two tickets in Section P Row 15 for Saturday that I am willing to part with at cost. If anyone is interested mail me at sorcerer bell grande on that Google mail site.

Nice if it shakes out that way. 10K+ would be G1 finals level and beat Invasion Attack from last year (Naito vs. Okada).

I feel I should know this, but when Kojima does his rush into the corner and follows up with his call-and-response with the crowd, was it is the crowd saying?

行っちゃうぞ、バカヤロウ!
Icchauzo, bakayarou!

"I'm coming, ya bastard!" is good, another way I'd think of it as is "HERE IT COMES, MOTHERFUCKER!" Generally in that ballpark. Japanese doesn't have too much in the way of direct swearing analogues, but how he says it and the "bakayarou" at the end make it fairly crass. FWIW, the dictionary I have note "bakayarou" as colloquial and derogatory for "idiot."

This talk of tickets and coming G1 season reminds me I owe the thread the Wrestling in Japan guide. I'll finish that this week. Jerusalem, is it cool to link/quote your WK ticketing guide from before?

Also worth noting that Rocky Romero says 'Nakasuzo konoyaro' all the time and that apparently translates to 'gonna make those punks cry'.

Very cool. I took six years of it in school and did a proficiency test in college (at my peak I had about 500 kanji under my belt), but I've slipped over the years. NJ has been a great way to keep some basic language skills sharp. And yes please do finish the guide, trying hard to hit WK next year.

I know the Tokyo Dome and Korakuen Hall let you bring in outside food and drink but BuySumoTickets says that ain't the case for Sumo Hall. Anyone know if that's true? Please tell me it isn't. I wanna chug cheap Strong Zeroes.

Same rule as everything in Japan: don't be a dick about it. Get a big backpack and fill it up, and if you get caught, own up to it.

It might be the case, but going the last couple years to WWE at Sumo Hall I've only been drinking beforehand and not able to bring opened drinks. Haven't tried to bring closed cans in.

If any of you go and you see a bearded white dude wearing a pink & black muscle man shirt and a lump coat that's filled with smuggled bottles of booze...that's definitely me, please say hello cuz the only person I've spoken to all week was a dude dressed like a Tenga at the Tokyo Joshi show.
