Did anyone watch all the CEO x NJPW show on youtube. I heard of a couple scary bumps in the Golden Lovers vs Los Ingobernables match. Plus they did have Rocky vs Jushin and a couple others

Ibushi should win the G1. Take a break away from Naito and Okada. Plus, they wanted to do Omega/Ibushi last year but they didn't have a story and luckily the Jericho thing came along. Now they have their story and it's an opportunity to have Ibushi take the step everyone has known he could take for years.
Naito definitely still deserves a big run with the title but he shouldn't do it via the G1 imo.

NJPW announced another show in the US, they'll be back at the Walter Pryanmind in Long Beach on September 30th, it's called Fighting Spirit Unleashed. I really don't like this move since it's a few weeks after All In and the audience is mostly a traveling one.

Shake it up.

I think Barnett was legit pissed at Jay White for knocking over Jim Ross

I think Barnett was legit pissed at Jay White for knocking over Jim Ross Dude legit held up a match trying to knock some sense into White. It was insane. He went a little overboard although I did understand.

Barnett's reaction was great, he was legit pissed since his friend (who's also a senior citizen) took an inadvertent bump. Awesome show tonight, had fun watching it.

Come on guys don’t tell me you fell for that JR bump spot. They barely hit the table they were at, and JR basically rolled out of his chair. That was obviously a work, and may even lead to a Barnett vs Jay White match at the next US special.

I’d have to watch again but it looked like more than just a roll out of his chair move. I thought he fell backwards completely

I agree the JR bump was a work but it was really well done. I thought Jay came off looking great last night even though he lost.
The Firing Squad split from the rest of the BC was an interesting move. I guess that’s our official NWO Wolfpac split haha. This has been brewing with Tama but I’m curious what the long term plan is going to be. Might be a really good candidate to take the US Title from Juice down the road or the GoD go right after the Bucks.
I thought it was a really good show. I thought Cody and Kenny going to the tables and ladders and the Bucks giving the “but why” reaction the entire match really worked. They made the story extremely compelling when I thought it was overwhelmingly obvious Kenny was going to retain.
Damn shame to hear about Takahashi. There were several cringeworthy spots in that match. I mean I enjoyed them, particularly whatever that counter Canadian Deatroyer move was but it’s definitely not worth a guy breaking his neck.

Absolutely gutted about Hiromu.
That spot was ridiculous. Dragon Lee needs to slow down a little bit. There were two or three spots that he rushed through and they didn’t look so good. The Steenalizer just so happened to be the worst case.

easily the best and most invested ive ever been in jay white, or in a jay white match. awesome match. awesome effort from juice/switchblade. i havent watched omega/cody yet, im sure its superb, but i had to spread the love for that match before omega made me forget. there were a couple pinfalls that i actually marked out for, which rarely happens to me anymore.

ill go out on a limb and say i actually enjoyed white/juice more than omega/cody. maybe because the result of omega/cody was never really a doubt. very intriguing direction they took with bullet club at the end of the show. i assume fale, and their 3rd brother when he returns from injury, will be on the firing squad side of it. maybe ishimori too, since bullet club has a jrs in scurll and yujiro already?
wow, just now read about hiromu after reading your comments. that spot did look absolutely ridiculous, and when he hit it "how didnt he break his neck there".... damn.
