Tag League night 1 was a lot of fun! All the newcomers got put over strong and I hope Chucky, Cobb, and Sami stick around. I didn't quite understand why Juice and Sami were tagging together until the announcers reminded me that Sami was in NXT. I think I'm officially on the Death Juice train.

I’m not sure Sami fits in NJPW. He’s very...not the house style? But he worked the crowd like his life was on the line, and who knows? Maybe it’ll work. Tag League hopefully perks up some. The first half of the show was hot trash I thought.

Sami is very much a guy who has to have "his match" for it to work and get over (there's a reason he never caught on in NXT), but I think NJPW tag guy is a good spot for him to get his poo poo in and make a name for himself over there.

I'd be down for a Sami vs Evil feud. I thought they worked really well together.

Today’s tags were...okay I guess. The weird gym/hockey rink setting made it fun, but man was that crowd DEAD for the Best Friends. Having way more fun with the Rev Pro shows they uploaded, and the free match of the week - Mutoh/Steiners vs Chono/Outsiders. Just a weird 1997 time capsule.

Yeah these single cam tour shows are almost always real weak crowd reaction wise & sometimes effort wise from the wrestlers. Cobb is doing well so far, but Chuck is obviously a fish out of water. He should either up his comedy or his heeling a bit more.

I didn't quite understand why Juice and Sami were tagging together until the announcers reminded me that Sami was in NXT. I think I'm officially on the Death Juice train. I watched the show since it's free on their YouTube page and Cobb got over great with his power stuff, though I wish he'd drop about 10-15 pounds around the middle. It also made me wish he was tagging with Keith Lee since they'd be another hoss team to go against War Machine/GoD/KES. Chuck, however....I wasn't feeling it. He looked tentative and just kinda off, and he and Beretta's big spot came off as a wet fart. Hopefully he gets something going the rest of the tour because that debate wasn't all that to speak of. Fell asleep during the main so I can't speak to Sami but I've never been a huge fan and Juice does nothing for me. I'll give the main a shot later and see if it changes my mind any.

While the dynamic of a hippie trying to rein in his scumbag edgelord cousin was fun for one entrance, I really don't want Sami Callihan to be a regular part of my NJPW experience.

Could Nakanishi ever move? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anyone less mobile. Maybe 90’s Giant Baba?

I recently saw a bit of him as Kurosawa in WCW and while not exactly agile, it took a while for me to recognize him as Nakanishi because he was certainly a lot more mobile back then than today.

Kitamura being the third largest guy in a match is unsettling. I also appreciate Lance Archer’s unending mission to spit water every wrestling fan in Japan, one by one. Dude needs a Tokyo Dome entrance with a Camelbak and a Foy system so he can get the folks in the nosebleeds

And its important that Kitamura is that big. Get bigger Kitamura. Get Huge. Attain your destiny.
