People here are hilarious. Kane is a safe worker, and for a big man, that's a huge plus. It's why they use him. He fits everything they need. An agile (slow? He's fast as fuck for his size), safe, incredibly versatile big man veteran who's more than willing to put young guys over.

So I watched this while driving to work (I know, I was stuck in traffic) and all I wanted to do once I finished is watch it again. That goddamn crowd is so hot, and Nagata's in probably what I'd say his prime. Kobashi being Kobashi, but goddamn Nagata is delightful.
A bit too much hyperbole for me, but that said, that Tombstone yesterday looked awful. I didn't buy that move for a second.
This is going to be great. When is this happening?
Given how WWE feels about piledrivers in general, it's going to be super-soft.
I'm shocked they let Luke Harper do a powerbomb yesterday, and he hit a really nice one at that.
Kane doing super safe tombstones is why they allow him to do them.

I'm not really anti-Kane, he's an old hand. Thought last night might have been the first time I ever thought "you know what I kinda wish he didn't have the mask on" when he came out and attacked ambrose.

Kenta Kobashi (c) vs Yoshihiro Takayama - (NOAH 2004/04/25)
Brutal match, Takayama was amazing for most of the early 2000's and he's one of the few guys who can throw Kobashi around and make it look easy. Never a good idea to piss off Kobashi, though...
It's easily one of Nagata's all-time best matches, I'd say. A real good story to it as well and the crowd really were amazing.

I'll never get used to Takayama having an intact face. That match with Don Frye is still one of the most fantastic things I've ever, EVER seen.

Speaking of Bryan, it's really a shame WWE went the direction they did with his character. I'm so uninterested in him right now, and WWE keeps putting dirt on him.

The two ladder matches served as a perfect showing of how less participants are more in the grand scheme of things, I mean that's kinda obvious in itself yet it was really noticeable going from the mostly smooth briefcase ladder match where everyone got a good showing to the title match where the often forgotten ADR's crowning moment was hitting an enziguri and mini superkick.
Needs more Demon.
Not gonna lie, his offence is pretty sluggish these days, especially since they remasked him.

The Frye fight was ridiculous, but Takayama's face is also a result of the stroke he had later in 2004 after this freaking brutal G1 match against Kensuke Sasaki. The post-match stuff is really disturbing, because he looks so completely out of it.

I'm not going to watch that. You think I'm going to watch that?!
...I'll watch it.
Everyone should watch Don Frye vs Takayama though, probably one of the greatest moments in MMA history:

Doesn't really matter, as said, another surgery probably means neck fusion which is at least a full year before he's back.

The only time they got the face off spot right was Wyatt's / shield
And then the crowd cheered/booed louder than the rest of the match to that point when they threw down, but that's ok.
If he goes the Peyton Manning route and he loses strength in his arms (edit: again) post-surgery just like fivehead did, the recovery time could be quite long.
Hey, I'm no doctor, but when you have surgery and they try a mild one that leaves your arm without power for months, I don't think another minor surgery will cover that.
Just prepping for the worst here.
The Orton/Cena of our Generation.

I need to gif the Ibushi/KUSHIDA "confrontation" from Kizuna Road. Just was real funny to me.

WWE put out a press release in Japan confirming a 'Public Contract Signing' at the July 12th show in Osaka. Hulk Hogan's going to be in attendance and the press release urges fans; "Do not miss the birth of a new Japanese superstar!".
I don't remember there being this much fanfare when they signed Tatsu, so hopefully that bodes well for KENTA's future in WWE.

Stop. Don't get your hopes up. I want it to be good, just...just don't, Boots. Just don't. I promise this is for your own good.

Wait I remember the last time Hulk Hogan was in Japan, Jeff Jarrett KOed him with a guitar

THE SIGNING IS JEFF
IT'S JEFF JARRETT
I for one am thrilled that Cena won. Like the Mets fan that is just tired of the disappointment, I'm switching to the winning team. Here's to another reign of terror. Cena's about to wash away the stink of Punk's 434 day reign. I'd like to thank Cena for teaching me the most important lesson life has to offer.
Never give up

your spot on the card.
Was Yoshi Tatsu a big star in Japan before he signed to WWE?
BronsonLee

He was starting to become a thing in NJPW, IIRC. But he bailed to do WWE. It was good when he was on ECW for a bit, but then nothing
Either way KENTA being in WWE will probably lure Punk back to do commentary, because I remember his dumb ass saying if KENTA ever came to ROH he would die to do commentary for it

Real talk with Wade out put the strap on reigns. Give him the Goldberg push (la parka squash included). Then on July 6th 2015 do a reigns Cena match . Boom

If they've got Devitt, they should do the signing with him in the same way. Then bring out Kenta afterwards, would be a big deal.
Then fade the shot away with Vince laughing manically that they won't be seen on TV ever again.
Sin Cara really should have used a second mask as a Mr. Socko type prop.

I think the most disappointing part of Last night was Cesaro for me personally. It was a shame he didn't get a chance to shine and do some crazy spots besides a couple of uppercuts. I love when he does something ridiculous with his strength.
Missed opportunities last night:
Give the Wyatts the tag titles and Bray the world title
Have Roman win the ladder match, then be bounced by Cena, enforcing the hatred of Cena and making Romans more over as a face with everyone as he got "screwed" by Cena "burying" him.
Dean didn't do the Zandig pose during the briefcase match
No curb stomp onto a ladder
Making Rusev/Big E a flag match
Heeling on Jon Stewart

All those shots of Jon Stewart w/his son, in Cena gear, is all the reinforcement you need that WWE did what's truly best for business last night.
It'll pass. It always does. Cheer up, and like I said last night, learn to love the undercard ala WCW.

Maybe thats why I get pissed, I watch it without spoilers all the time.
I'm cheery. Although I feel like my brain got cooked yesterday. And that chat. Everyone was so 'cist.
In other news, I finished the first volume of Absolute Sandman. I'm into it and will continue with the story, but it is probably going to be a month or two before I pick up the second volume.

It's some heavy shit. I can only read so much Sandman before I'm like...okay. I gotta stop for a month. Or more. It's heavy, it's wonderful.
