    Anyone who watched how was the show last night? Worth checking out?

    Every match was consistently good. Something I don't find myself saying for NJPW b-shows.

    Gonna have to watch that ZSJ match. What a strange ending.

    Goto vs. Suzuki is the feud we deserve.

    Just finished watching the show. Thoughts:

    -Disappointed in the outcome of the main event but can't complain about the match itself. Those two worked their asses off and gave each other some fucking brutal strikes!
    -War Machine looked fucking awesome! Can't wait for the rematch.
    -Shocked at how quick Takahashi/Kushida was. Still a fun match for how short it was.
    -Certainly some interesting feuds they set up. All in on Suzuki/Goto and Takahashi/Ricochet. Not entirely sold on Juice getting a shot at Naito but I'm sure the match will be fine. Don't care at all about Bad Luck Fale going up against Okada.

    Overall I was very pleased with the show and am psyched for the next PPV.

    To build toward upcoming G1 matches. It isn't meant for turns or anything. They just want A pinning B to put that in your head for the match in the tourney.

    I have a feeling Tanahashi won't finish the G1, his bicep is looking rough

    I love the 5:30 EST start times for NJPW. I wish they all were at this time. Boss is out today so I'm watching at work.

    Sanada/EVIL was so good. Sanada is going to be a star.
