    mid-late 90s coked out druggy HBK is the best wrestling look of all time...but Kenny is getting there man. I've warmed up to the blonde and he's f---ing ripped right now

    He’ll get close but not to HBK’s level. He looks phenomenal but HBK will always be on a level of his own.

    Kenny might come off like a mega star but Shawn was a god. Much prefer his Cleaner look with the extensions and ponytail. His hair seems to be improving though.

    Also @Pinhead caught up on recommended Best of Super Jr matches this week

    thoughts

    Ishimori/Ospreay 4.25
    Takahashi/Scurll 3.75
    ACH/Gordon 4.0
    Dragon Lee/SHO 4.25
    KUSHIDA/Scurll 4.25
    Desperado/Takahashi 4.25
    Ospreay/YOH 4.0
    Dragon Lee/Takahashi 4.75 one of the highlights for me
    Desperado/Dragon Lee 3.75 there was potential for something great here but ofcourse the ripped mask kinda halted things...regardless it's incredibly memorable now
    Ospreay/Gordon 4.5 another great one
    Ishimori/YOH 4.25
    SHO/Scurll 4.0
    Takahashi/KUSHIDA 4.25
    Takahashi/Ishimori 5.0 phenomenal

    thinking Omega beats Ibushi but he wins and wants Kenny at the Dome

    I just want this match.

    Takahashi/Ishimori was so f---ing good. One of my favorite matches of the year so far with Omega/Okada & Ospreay/Scurll from a couple months ago.

    Am I the only one surprised their doing Omega/Ibushi in the G1 after all the years it’s been built? Maybe they don’t have plans anymore to have them eventually feud and have the big grudge match?
