gresham vs Rosser is gonna be good but lol Gresham your not even the best wrestler in Strong, let alone NJPW

I mean, Okada's on the card tomorrow, so I think that skews things a bit unfairly.

I'm bummed that the Briscoes/Aussie Open match is on a different card, tbh

They're from the early days of ROH/CZW and Impact. (SAT stands for Spanish Announce Team)

i'm so far behind on NJPW, this is the first i'm hearing of a "night before" event, don't see anything about it on NJPW World either, how are y'all watching this?

Fite. The big Strong shows are typically PPVs on Fite these days.

Seriously pondering signing up for the Fite+ thing for a month to watch the House Of Glory show on Saturday, if only for Dem Boys vs Aussie Open

Is this gonna go up on World with a delay? Because it seems like the show was pretty bonkers.

Eventually, yes, I think the Nashville show went up a couple of weeks ago.

Heads up, the pre-show is on YouTube, not Fite

Always really funny when you can hear them working on the sound mix on the fly. Could barely hear Ian and Alex to start.

Or I thought I heard Kozlov, but mostly just hearing Rehwoldt now?

Oh, wait there he is... he should probably go back to wrestling, he's good at that and bad at commentary

There's English commentary on the Kickoff? I'm getting Japanese.

On the NJPW English YT channel, the stream me and wicka posted.

Thanks!

Weirdly the Japanese feed and English feed are at different places in the match.

I assume the JP is being fed to Japan then streamed from there with the commentary, whereas Ian, Alex and Matt are in the room, so it's going straight out.

Is this the only match on the kickoff?

Yep

Actually really hype for Kling Kling vs Mayu. Kilynn is legit really good, IMO, and Mayu is Mayu. And I like the gimmick of the SWA belt, I remember MiSu pitched that NJPW should do that with the IC title before the unification.

But Dick Togo is in Japan, who will interfere for the House?

...I kind of hate Alex on commentary. He's just cartoonish in his heel stuff, when it would have made more sense for him to play grudging face here because of Rocky. Plus him AND Matt is just too much.

Why, YOH's used to teaming with a guy who's much more interesting and charismatic?

Nothing against DKC and Knight, but just MCMG vs Aussie Open would probably be better.

they need to make a trio with rocky and give them yet another roppongi name

I mean, they did the RPG3K finish on SHO, and YOH did the hand signal, so I think the idea is they are Roppongi 3K.

Running FTR/Aussie Open back at the Dome seems like a solid idea, to me

I think shota has "it" and looks quite good but I think he really needs to find himself as a wrestler

In fairness, that's the best his weird spinning facebuster thing has looked.
