Amazing main event. Really great card. Great start to the tourney.
Move if the day :German Suplex
Okada says next time he and AJ are in the ring together, he'll take the belt back. Says he'll win all his G1 matches. Then hands the mic to Gedo.
Gedo says that you're about to see a summer unlike any other. Says Okada beat the IWGP Champion, and he'll do the same to everyone else.
It's really a shame this team went nowhere due to contract disputes between Nakata and Uwai.Shibata is too fuckin' godly. Give that man some titles and some fuckin' merch. Fuck, teach him english and let him and KENTA murder the WWE roster.
Naito looked a bit loopy for a second or two, but recovered well - some of the stuff they were doing later on was pretty crisp, so I'd hazard a guess that he's OK. Ibushi's incident was way worse.
Incidentally, I was more worried about Makabe's jaw. Perhaps it was just how well he was selling (for a guy who doesn't really sell all that much), but he really looked in a lot of pain when Goto was laying into him.
*edit, forgot to mention guys, but there's a number of people unable to watch live so can we keep results spoiler tagged in the future? Cheers.
I'll never see what you see in Honma, Boootaaaay. He's just so average to me.
I wish I would have seen this thread before hand. Is there any way to catch this at a later date?
So this is the card for the show I have a ticket for.

Which of these matches should I be paying the most attention to?

Ugh at tonights start time. Looks like im watching it tomorrow. This G1 is so hype
Yano vs. Styles seems like it'd be so weird.
I could see AJ perhaps taking Yano too lightly to begin with, maybe one or two of Yano's tactics work (he does have the most noble brain, after all) and he makes AJ look like a chump, before AJ just crushes him.
It's a weird match. Also, I'm interested in Okada vs Archer - Lance had a good tournament last year, so it'll be cool to see how he does against the Rainmaker.
I hope that Seibu Lions waffle sandwich makes it's way to the states.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVSRyh2PxTQ
Okada and Gedo visit the Seibu Dome, the site of the G1 finals.
