I appreciate njpw of putting this match on a show that already sold out. Though I guess they still need ppv buys.

Yoshi Tatsu showing up at a press conference to inform Tanahashi this challenge had been made, Tanahashi responding,"Ok..... thanks, Yoshi Tatsu....?" :laugh:

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Okada and Tanahashi are both masters of realizing when to play the heel role based on crowd reactions, and I love that Okada is doing that tonight.

was just thinking we, as obsessive wrestling nerds, shouldve long since hated The Ace for being face for over a decade and just so pure but we have never swayed from him because while he is The Ace he plays the bastard when it makes sense and he doesnt try and undermine people who the people are behind

also that we were discussing his retirement and his knees were shot also a decade ago

Just realized that 45 minute delay to the show starting means this show would have probably been over by now, and poor Bryan Alvarez is gonna get a phone-call from an amped up Dave Meltzer at like 4 in the morning wanting to do a show.
