The cuffs spot isn't really working for me given O-Khan got the key earlier and apparently only bothered to uncuff Newman (who isn't in the match!)

GoK's turning as the longcon revenge for Bea Priestly. It's not a coincidence Windsor is at ringside

This is a generational moment. Each of these guys remaining in New Japan, this is what you'll think of when you think of them.

Akira slipping between the planks, oof.

I feel like they crescendoed with Akira's comeback, and the ring being denuded dragged the match to a stop and it's struggling to regain momentum.

This is in danger of dragging out too long now, i'm still in it but it really should have ended with one big spot after the ring destruction

I'm legit shocked that we didn't get any turns

Outside of the last 5-10 this was phenominal, and even that wasn't awful

Yeah okay. Match was good up until the last 10 minutes basically, then fell apart. I assume Ospreay wanted to go out on his back but this feels like a waste.

Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.
That match was so awesome!

Still trying to figure out why O-Khan didn't use the key he took from Gedo to unlock first Cobb and later Henare.

Edit: He just loving did it now! :psyduck:

I really thought they were going to do some big Hulk spot with him bending steel or something. Wondering if he's hurt. Coughlin looked like his knee was banged up at the end there too.

You'll never see a New Japan wrestler on a BAKA Gaijin show. Maybe the back of a pantsless doctor who is suspiciously good at locking in technical submissions, but certainly no New Japan wrestlers!
