When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
That was fun.

Looks like Tiger Mask was trying to do something for the intended finish but then he kind of botched it and they needed to wrap it up and that was it.

That was alright all things concidered.

It was really bad, but probably not in a stupid enough way to warrant going back to goggle at, unfortunately.

Oh well, too bad about that. And this match didn't really work well either. Guess next time I should just sleep an hour longer before the actual show instead of trying to wake up early for the pre-show.

According to the commentators, the first time Inoki did the "1-2-3 Daaaaaaaaaah!" shout was at the Dome.


Also, they just announced production on an Inoki biopic will begin soon.

It's like goldy or bronzy, but made of iron.


In terms of usage of legends this week, Noah's booking of Hiroshi Hase was better but this was still a good time.

It's OK for what it is, and it doesn't overstay its welcome. There are much better matches though.

I thought Suzuki and Tiger Mask (until that last gently caress up) were bringing it. But yeah, basically.
