I hope Goto loses to Suzuki and instead of losing all his hair, Suzuki shaves Goto's head to look like Suzuki's head and the spirit of wild sadism enters him and Goto becomes a vicious killer. Or actually I don't care too much but I like the idea of Suzuki making people look like him

They should have Goto become a lounge singer that beats up patrons if they talk during his set. Like don't book him to wrestle anymore, just sing and brutalize people. Maybe make it a web series.

I remember watching Dominion live, and before the main event started at around 3:45 I was thinking of just going to bed and catching it the next day. By 5 a.m. I was silently screaming in my room, trying not to wake up my roommates. The One Winged Angel nearfall totally got me.

Yeah same, I was tired before it started and at 3 Am I couldn't sleep at all due to that match.

The Naito/Okada story is so good, and the way you can trace it back years (whether intended or not) is legitimately amazing. Is there a good American comp for this? I know Rock is the default answer (blue-chip babyface gets rejected by fans, goes heel, becomes more popular than ever by just being himself), but even Austin wasn't such a constant thorn in his side like Okada is here (mostly because Austin had Vince as his real money-making foil).

Benne posted:The Naito/Okada story is so good, and the way you can trace it back years (whether intended or not) is legitimately amazing. Crow Sting and Hollywood Hogan? Not an exact match, but the dynamics are kind of similar. Although we know it's not how it went in real life, if you just go by what's on-screen you can claim that foreshadowing of Hogan's heel turn go back as far as 94 when the crowd first started turning on him and he had a heelish edge during the Brother Brudai angle. He and Sting were portrayed as fairly close during that period, and of course the metamorphosis into Crow Sting is a direct result of the atmosphere of mistrust and anger the NWO and Hogan's turn in particular caused in the WCW locker room. Once he returns in his new form Sting makes life hell for the NWO, whether he's just haunting them or dragging X-pac into the rafters with him, and it's all about sending a message to the world that the NWO has poisoned that he's not going to accept the status quo Hogan has created, and intends to bring it down by beating him and taking his title. Like I said, it's not a perfect parallel, especially since parts of Naito's story are in Hogan's part and others are in Sting's part, and the basic heel/face dynamic between Okada and Naito is reversed, but there's more than a few similarities.

I'm rewatching the New Year Dash tag match with Omega/Styles vs YOSHI-HASHI/Nakamura. Kenny is so much bigger than YOSHI, even before he put on extra muscle. It really shows how dumb and arbitrary the jr division is. If the Bucks win at Wrestle Kingdom, I hope the jr tag belts get dissolved.

They should merge the tag titles and KES can just go away imo, let GoD do fun spotfests with the existing junior teams

Kawato is probably the better fit for having a good year in CMLL but man I wanted to will Kitamura onto Puebla shows.

Super 69 made it to the finals of the Super Jr tag tourney, which was the last time he would have had a spot for the year. Excuse of how being a junior works. I imagine he'll be back for BOSJ, if not sooner if R3K needs some challengers.

Gedo was at least a very big fan of ACH at one stage at least. Will ask around after the holidays.
