I know that bigger starts losing is a thing. Okada lost in his opening G1 match. I guess it's early to be worried about Kushida losing 1 match. I was also surprised Dragon Lee won. He's had 2 great matches with Takahashi so I'm not complaining about a rubber match.

dragon lee is the safest guy for hiromu to lose to because hes established as his rival (although hiromu was up 2-0 in japan so probably wise to have lee pull it closer to even). will be interesting to see if hiromu loses to anyone else

I love Takahashi so much. He is straight fire and all of his matches are great. I would be fine with him running through his entire block.

Naito bent the gently caress out of the IC belt. Naito is the best.

Does anyone have a rundown of what was said at the NJPW press conference for the Long Beach show.
|
# ? May 19, 2017 01:18 |

From the presser, here's the roster they announced: NJPW -- Hiroshi Tanahashi Michael Elgin KUSHIDA Jushin Thunder Liger Juice Robinson David Finlay Sho Tanaka & Yohei Komatsu Jay White Billy Gunn Yoshitatsu Chaos -- Kazuchika Okada Tomohiro Ishii Will Ospreay Rocky Romero & Trent Barreta Los Ingobernables de Japon -- Tetsuya Naito Hiromu Takahashi SANADA EVIL BUSHI Suzuki-gun -- Zack Sabre Jr. ROH -- Jay Lethal The Briscoes War Machine CMLL -- Dragon Lee Volador Jr. Titan Bullet Club -- Kenny Omega The Young Bucks Cody Rhodes Marty Scurll Bad Luck Fale Hangman Page Guerrillas of Destiny Yujiro Takahashi Pretty drat great, although not sure what's up with Tanahashi (Dave is reporting that despite the bicep tear the current plan is to tough it out). Dragon Lee is a cool addition I wasn't expecting. Only person missing that I'd really want is Ibushi. E. And Suzuki. But still, very cool.

edit: beaten with more detail. Unsurprised but disappointed at the lack of Suzuki, but glad entire LIJ stable is coming over. otoh I'm elated to see some cool CMLL guys in person for the first time. Thauros fucked around with this message at 01:23 on May 19, 2017 |

Thauros posted:edit: beaten with more detail. Thinking it through a bit, the CMLL relationship becomes even more important in 2018 if they're going to run the subsidiary mostly out of LA. It's a smart move for both to always have some visibility of those guys going forward.

NJPW probably won't even book a rematch of the legendary Yoshitatsu vs Volador Jr match.

So Tana is just gonna get through his Dominion match and then have surgery, right? Is that what we're all assuming? There's no way he can work full-time on a torn bicep after just one month.

There's no way he can work full-time on a torn bicep after just one month. He's going to do Long Beach after that, then it is only a month until G-1, and after that the Dome really isn't that far away so he can just take some time off in 2018.
