Also when you keep getting pushed into title matches and getting cool opportunities your infinitely better partner should be getting. The funniest thing I heard about him was Sam Adonis saying that their Champion Carnival match went short because Daichi couldn't be bothered to kick out of the regular move that Adonis hit him with.

it doesn't help that all his dad's friends/ other vets washed their hands of him for whatever reason

tthere were def heavy rumors of them being co-opted in that period after bushiroad partnership/partial ownership and before the current group took over. mixed feelings at best about the rebrand but obv a way better fate than that

Any existing fed work with the WWE is going to be in for a shock when it finds out WWE fans in Japan like the sports entertainment style and the fans of their fed like their style. I can't help but see die hard Big Japan fans not being happy at all in being NXT Japan Also Vince will screw you over etc...etc

There’s another, separate “everyone else,” and that’s WWE fans.

I hadn't been paying attention to WWE's expansions. Have they actually done anything in japan or is it still at the same theoretical level it was 10 years ago?

Strong agreement on wishing that WWE was part of that crossover analysis.

It's all rumours at the moment but they've really cranked up in the last few days, to the point where Meiko Satamura & Daisuke Sekimoto are being mentioned as trainers.

The fact WWE is letting Walter work against Seikmoto does add some fuel to those rumors

Big Japan got duped into working with CZW way back when so I'm pretty sure they are perfectly capable of being hoodwinked by WWE too.

BJW getting so mad at CZW(Zandig particularly) they worked with Chikara for "revenge" is one of the more funnier stories to come out of wrestling.

I sure hope it's not 7 hours. 5 hours is more in line with the past Ryogokus. I'll be down in the mat seats. This whole trip was a last minute decision and the ticket was also a resale. Happy to hi-five any goons.

If any of you are interested in grabbing drinks after the show, I have 50% off drink tickets for a nearby bar donated to me by Pinche Rudo and Dante Vicknabb when we went for drinks near Ryogoku after KOPW and it seems fitting they end up going to other goons.

I beg that you make use of the coupons. I did actually end up going back to Popeye after the KFC Hall shows and met two of the most interesting and certainly accomplished people I've ever met, a doctor and nutritional scientist from Europe. I got to teach them about Jushin Liger.
