    @Asmodeus @Pinhead thought White/Tana was great I’d go 4.25, Moxley/juice was alright holy s--- not feeling a 4.75 or the 4.5 Meltz gave it I’d go 4* at most I’m thinking 3.75 maybe, and I also put Takagi/Ospreay above both gargano/cole matches which are really good but overrated (and for the record Gargano’s best match was vs Almas)

    Also surprised some geeks still don’t see that juice is an assclown who’s nothing more than a decent worker lucky to be in a company facing the best talent in the world because every great match he’s had he’s been carried to by a world class worker

    Also f--- him + his s-----y a--- dreads he used to have and if he hops on commentary again I’m switching to japanese

    You've lost your mind in your college hysteria brah. I can't even debate anything because of how ridiculous it is.

    He gave Mox/Juice 4.5 btw, which I'd say is spot on. Right there with the AJ TLC match, blows every WWE single he had out of the water.

    Edit

    You can have Shingo/Ospreay over Cole/Gargano, but this nonchalant critiquing of it is just kind of absurd. There's one sequence in particular that people say was too choreographed, but it was one sequence. Idk how you can say either aren't one of or *the* best matches in WWE history right there with the Almas match.

    He didn't seem the same after that bump, hope he's ok

    My ratings for the 3 main matches

    Ospreay/Lee - 5/5
    Naito/Ibushi - 4.25/5
    Jericho/Okada - 4/5

    It's crazy how much breaking out of the WWE mold can help a guy. I hadn't cared about Dean Ambrose for a while now, but I've loved everything he's done in NJPW so far

    Ibushi has a black eye.

    Lands on his head at least ten times. Black eye and he tweets about it being better on concrete. This guy is a millionaire without wrestling and this is what he wants to do.

    Dominion was really good but def not as good as the past two years mainly because of the main event not being Okada/Omega but oh well

    Ibushi and Naito is wild they needa stop before someone dies. Please NO MORE IBUSHI AND NAITO MATCHES thank you

    Sorry that I'm just now getting to this, I haven't had internet all weekend. I didn't watch all of them but I caught about 8 matches from the tournament plus the triple main event from the finals. Still need to finish Dominion as well.

    Wow this website is really dying, little to no discussion happening in any of the wrestling threads and they were some of the most active on the forum. Should we make a Discord or some s--- like that? @WrestlingBros @NJPWBros

    Ishii/Jay was phenomenal. Match of the tournament so far and maybe of Jay's career.

    I wasn't huge on Jay White when he first came back, but I'm loving everything I've seen from him this year

    Ospreay/Ibushi was a better match with more in depth storytelling than Ibushi/Nak, another all time great.

    So, 5 stars.
