The other thing I pondered they could do is Dominion in theĀ Osaka Dome. One big dome show at a time I suppose. Fuck, how are they going to make compelling cards to fill up the dome back to back?

Brian Fowler Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 It's funny that people have been suggesting WWE split Mania for the last few years, but NJPW looks like they are actually doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Ā They're trying to run more domes shows. I read few years ago they want one dome show to sell out in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 @Beech27Ā I can only imagine your reaction at Ibushi's Nakamura mannerisms. @D.ZĀ apparently they consider anything over 40,000 a sellout. But Japan's silliness over sellouts is too much. ... Oh shit HERE WE GO! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I donāt know Japanese, but they showed a shot of cherry blossoms and then immediately cut to msg. Guess we wonāt be stuck with a jay lethal vs dalton castle main event there.Ā That match was insane, forget the jr tag,Ā that will be tough for everyone to follow.

Casey Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I really wish they wouldn't do stretcher jobs unless it's real, because I don't know if I'm being worked or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 It's too bad that opened but I think it lived up to the hype. I don't like the idea of Will beating Ibushi (and in such decisive fashion) in his first attempt but God damn what a match that was. I would've liked to see Ibushi bring a little bit more of his meanness/SNAPPED Ibushi mode but the story was that Will kind of took over when it went into the Nakamura/Ibushi zone of violence.

Pro wrestling, bruuuuther. 2 minutes ago, EVA said: Ibushi doing a stretcher job for Will fucking Ospreay lol. Will is going to be their top babyface foreigner if/when Kenny leaves.

sevendaughters Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 super opener, loved that back elbow. Desperado music chilling everyone out before it goes mad again.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I really think Desperado is a wonderful rudo hand but I couldn't give a single fuck about this match. Roppongi 3K... I'm over them even though I think they're both fine but flawed individual performers. Go away heat in this current set-up though. SO inorganic and bland. Fuck off Rocky too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I confused EDION Arena with Osaka Jo Hall and forgot they were already doing DominionĀ there. I think that's a big enough venue. Maybe they can experiment with a dome show outside Tokyo when it makes more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but Shingo makes this match interesting because he's Shingo Takagi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
