Naito still kinda looks out of it.

To be fair he always looks likev that'

 

[ghostmind]

I'm digging Naito's Lion-O haircut.

 

[British Monsoon]

Fucking hell, Yujiro.

 

[mrboo001]

With that pin attempt, I'm pretty sure only 2 matches tonight didn't have the german suplex move

 

[ghostmind]

Fucking hell, Yujiro.

Under further review, what the hell was Yujiro trying to do there? He was way too far away from the ropes.

 

[tm24]

Miami shine baby!

 

[Ithil]

I think Naito's G1 will go slightly worse than last year's.

 

[serenewarfare]

Good match save for when Yujiro tried to paralyze Naito.

 

[slightconfuse]

Naito got his head beat. Hope he doesn't gave a concussion

 

[Evening Musuko]

All the matches have been pretty solid. Rest of the matches should be good too.

Hopefully Naito's ok.

 

[tm24]

Ugh, it's getting late. Guess ill watch the rest of the matches later today. time to GOTO BED!

 

[ghostmind]

Does Makabe have a weak/injured jaw, or is that the only way he knows how to show pain?

 

[serenewarfare]

Wow. What a match.

 

[slightconfuse]

YESS GOTO

Really good match

 

[Ithil]

Great hoss fight.

Does Makabe have a weak/injured jaw, or is that the only way he knows how to show pain?

Goto fractured Makabe's jaw last month in a tag match when his kick went high.

 

[mrboo001]

Great match. I would be more into it if I wasn't so sleepy.

 

[ghostmind]

I think that was the best Makabe match I've seen all year.

 

[StylesClash]

So this is where everyone is...

 

[British Monsoon]

LOVED that match, hell of a slugfest and the best Makabe match I've seen in ages.

 

[ghostmind]

Honma finally nails one!

 

[mrboo001]

Unprotected splat with the head on to the mat ouch

 

[ghostmind]

Unprotected splat with the head on to the mat ouch

Honma's head has a protective layer of scar tissue.

 

[serenewarfare]

Great match as expected. Shibata-Nakamura next. Maximum hype.

 

[slightconfuse]

This is going to be a barn burner

 

[mrboo001]

Great match as expected. Shibata-Nakamura next. Maximum hype.

This should be the match of the night

 

[serenewarfare]

This should be the match of the year

Probably more accurate

 

[ghostmind]

My hype for this match knows no bounds!!!!

 

[British Monsoon]

Man, I loved that match, crowd was fully behind Honma there. Great stuff. Really hard fought contest, as well - Honma sells so well, love his expression when Tanahashi slipped into the dragon suplex.

This next match should be rather awesome, methinks.

 

[mrboo001]

Probably more accurate

Very well could be. No matter what, worth the sleep loss

 

[Ithil]

This is a real tense match.

 

[British Monsoon]

Nice, we get to see the more methodical wrestling style of Shibata. I like the slugfests, but he's a great technical wrestler (as is Shinsuke) so it's cool to see that on display, rather than how hard he hits.

 

[mrboo001]

This is a real tense match.

Like just before a fireworks factory explodes

 

[ghostmind]

Boma Ye!!!!

That was a sweet GTS combo by Shibata... one hell of a match!

 

[serenewarfare]

Holy shit. Just amazing. And Shibata won.

 

[slightconfuse]

Shibata!!!!!

Wow that was awesome

 

[Net_Wrecker]

That match was tearing me apart. My 2 favorites beating each other down.

I can't take it.

 

[mrboo001]

Boma Ye!!!!

Another great match. Surprised he kicked out of it.

 

[serenewarfare]

Main event time. Should be a great one.

 

[Ithil]

That penalty kick nearly lifted Nakamura off the mat.

That penalty kick nearly lifted Nakamura off the mat.

I think Shibata sometimes forgets it's supposed to be a work.

 

[mrboo001]

That match was tearing me apart. My 2 favorites beating each other down.

I can't take it.

They are also my favorites of the NJPW. Such constracting styles, Shibata as an asskicker and Shinsuke with the pure in-ring charisma but they both really show the different styles of pro werstling...

speaking of Styles, he's up now vs Okada. So be another great match.

 

[slightconfuse]

Too awesome drop kick

Lol

 

[British Monsoon]

Shibata is beastly, loved the hell out of that match. This whole second half has been killer and, considering there was only one dud in the first half, this is shaping up to be a fantastic event overall.

 

[Ithil]

That crossbody over the railings was great.

 

[mrboo001]

Lol nice leap by Styles better jump by Okada

 

[slightconfuse]

These two have such great chemistry

 

[ghostmind]

Bullet Club hijinks!

 

[slightconfuse]

RAINMAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[mrboo001]

Spoiler

OH SHIT OKADA WON!

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Okada's bridge on that German suplex was so good. And AJ's sell of the Rainmaker was serious. Good match.
