Niners Fan in CT Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Beast in the Rising Sun. Is WWE Network showing the entire event? They should. I like Cena teaming with Dolph it's like Tanahashi teaming with Captain New Japan or some other jobber against his rival and another jobber.

Go2Sleep Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Since it's July 4th how about "Great American Bash in Japan"? Absolutely just for the absurdity of it also being headlined by an Irishman vs a French-Canadian. "Our Independence Day" In fact, if Kofi doesn't do a parody of the President Whitmore speech in preparation for his match with Brock, I'll be somewhat disappointed now.

(BP) Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Kofi throws a punch at Brock and screams, "Welcome to Earth!." Brock no sells and gorilla presses him onto Xavier and Big E followed by five more minutes of suplexes. Being an agent for Brock matches would be the best job in the world.

NikoBaltimore Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 They need to bring Ambrose to Japan and shoot vignettes of him searching for, and meeting his true birth father, Atsushi Onita. Aw, too bad he's going to be in Winnipeg. To take off that line, can you imagine if he did a segment with Nakamura? Or how about a segment with them going around the city raising hell? That's be soooooo much fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Dean needs to meet up with mid-200ish Great Sasuke so they can discuss how to do ridiculous spots and still walk afterwards. For some reason, Dean seems like the kinda worker who'd understand why you'd put a barrel over your head, climb the turnbuckle, and.... put yourself through a table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Kofi throws a punch at Brock and screams, "Welcome to Earth!." Brock no sells and gorilla presses him onto Xavier and Big E followed by five more minutes of suplexes. Being an agent for Brock matches would be the best job in the world. Until Brock's opponent dies in the ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 The closer it gets the more excited I am for the show. Brock/Kofi is going to be tremendous for many reasons. And there's something awesome about Balor with paint going back to Japan. I know WWE hates the "Too sweet" sign, but they have to expect people are going to remember him for that. I'm so excited for this I considered getting up at 5:30 for this, but I like sleep. Either way it's going to be a fun morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 So who wants to take a stab at which Japanese wrestlers show up in the front row as fans? Takayama? Kojima? Sanshiro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takayama is given so he and Jericho can continue their eternal feud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Just a headsup for people looking to record the show: my cable provider had it listed as a 30 minute show, so I had to extend the recording by 3 hours just to make sure I get the whole show. Not sure how long the show is listed for everyone else, but definitely worth confirming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 The WWE Network schedule lists it as a Two Hour block 5:30 - 730 AM 5:00 AM will be the Finn Balor special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 So, are we still expecting Lesnar vs. Kofi? I mean, that HAS TO BE the bait for a switch, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brysynner Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 They're still promoting Brock vs Kofi on the Network. I would love to see Kofi get the win over Brock. But I want it to be a DQ win. Something like Brock has Kofi up for the F5, Big E acts like he's gonna get in the ring, Brock drops Kofi and deals with Big E and Xavier just attacks Kofi for the DQ win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It makes ZERO sense for that match to happen. KOFI? I just don't get it. Brock goes all the way to Japan to commit a 5 minute murder? Why would the WWE waste one of his appearances on a zero of a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Apparently Brock asked to be included in the Japan tour as he wanted to visit Japan and see Masa Saito, so he figured he'd do a short appearance on the WWE Tour and have his trip paid for, as well as actually get paid himself. Prety smart booking on his part, if you ask me. I don't know if this would be counted as one of his official contracted dates, though, since it's something he requested.

NikoBaltimore Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I for one am going to be highly amused if #PrayforKofi is trending throughout the morning. Poor guy's going to get destroyed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I remembered hearing something about Brock's contract where WWE had the option to add a date for a predetermined amount of money.
