    Despy/Dragon was super hot until Dragon legitimately ripped the fuck out of Despy's mask.  The drama surrouding whether Despy could keep his face covered was amusing, but it definitely took something from the match.  Glad to see Despy get a big rub from Dragon, though.  Maybe they can build off that.

    Looks like mask vs mask is gonna happen at some point.

     

  2. Marty's shtick is annoying, but it's over.

     

    Sabre's glass jaw as mentioned above is why I could buy Okada winning after all the armwork.  Okada's had some really good matches with the midcarders like Sabre and Sanada lately.  Sabre would be well suited as a tag guy in NJPW if Suzuki-gun didn't have KES.

     

  3. There are so many guys who could be face of the Division that Despy gets lost in the shuffle behind Osprey, Kushida, and Hiromu , and the Japanese crowds love the Villain shtick so Marty gets his shots ahead of Despy as well.

    Taichi going heavy was the best thing ever to happen to Despy.

    Just came across this:

    I'm not much of gamer and not really a New Japan show, but I'm down for the 90 minute drive to watch Liger live.

     

    It's an official New Japan show, though it's gonna be a split show due to the UK that weekend.   Kenny Omega competes at that event consistently.   There's a lot of crossover between pro wrestling and fighting games.

    I know Naito, Juice, Ibushi,  Hiromu, GoD, Taguchi, Jeff Cobb,  Dragon Lee, Chase Owens all booked as well.   16 total forgot everywhere who is going to be there.

    Drew has the look. But i don't think he connects well with the crowd. If it was 1996 he'd be pushed to the moon right now... and we would hate him.

    Rusev is the clear amswer, but itbwill take a Bryan-esque fan movement to force that hand.

     

     

    And the fans that would be behind that- I think most of them would rather see Rusev be fired and end up in NJPW instead.

     

  6. Another factor is east coast folks can get their fix with CEO, which hasn't announced matches- but Kenny, Ibushi, and Naito are draws.  Got my tickets today thanks to registering for the tourney (they gave entrants 1st shot at tickets)

     

  7. Attitudes were very different in the early 90s than today.   I also suspect Cornette might have changed in his beliefs a good bit- I want to believe that, and I believe in giving people benefit of the doubt if it's realistic- and it is.

     

    I'd love to see Cornette back it up by stumping for some Dems on the campaign trail in the Smoky Mountain/JCP areas this year.

     

  8. There was a viral youtube vid about 30 or so different Sinclair stations spewing out a rather blatant propaganda piece that Trump wanted, followed by some Sinclair folks saying they hated to do it, so Sinclair's a boogeyman right now.   Sinclair is considered one of Trump's strongest allies, so it's being politicized (and Sinclair is legitimately awful- I will not attend a ROH show due to them as long as Trump is president)
