There's no intermission this year apparently. Probably 4 and a half hours?

ooh, no intermission can help. and op is a bit confusing, main show starts at 11 pst tonight, correct? so it could totally wrap up by 4 am if all this is accurate.

time to go buy some caffeine

My friends, Kazuchika Okada is extremely good. I have nothing but respect and admiration for Kenny Omega, but I don't think he will be able to defeat Okada, on account of the latter being very, very good at pro wrestling

okada has the best dropkick i have ever seen. his dropkick is beautiful. i am going to buy tekken 7 and play rainmaker king cause okada is so great.

also i like cody.

I';d much prefer if this match ended soon and they took it home, I don't think KUSHIDA is selling and everything after this is making me uncomfortable.

i will hope the wrestling people are doing their job very well and i am a mark!

i think the jr heavyweight match was my favorite of the night. i have never been crazy about kushida, but that match was beautiful. the following 3 matches were all amazing as well, that one just struck me.

Corino and Kelly spend as much time as Cole and JBL talking about poo poo that has no relation to the match that's currently happening, neither of them know the names of any moves, neither of them seem to know the backstory or character of anyone involved despite working with the company for years, they barely even put the drat wrestlers over.

Under the vegetable posted:

I would have strongly preferred a team of Cole and Saxton over what we got. They'd at least have more energy.

i find your opinions so disagreeable that i feel you must be intentionally saying silly things to get a reaction

I finally got around to watching WK and I just want to say that Meltzer was right about omega vs okada. That match was something special. Holy loving poo poo.

Also Kushida vs Takahashi was great and my sleeper match of the show. I've always liked Kushida but he looked great. He was crisp and hard hitting. He hit everything right on the mark.

Wrestling is cool.

i have been afraid to say it because dave meltzer gave the main event 6 stars, but kushida/takahashi was my favorite match of the night.
