Might as well add Dragon Lee vs BotSJ winner.

It's not out of the question that Dragon Lee won't *be* the BOSJ winner, given how the blocks set up.

I'll have to keep a close eye on how the feud goes leading up to it, but Okada/Jericho is one of the most foregone conclusion matches I've seen announced recently.  With him being in AEW plus where he's at in his career I have a hard time suspending disbelief at the idea of Jericho having a chance.  But the other two matches sound really good so I have them to look forward to.

Yeah, but if he wins who challenges him?

Oh.

I doubt Hiromu goes straight to the belt coming back, but it wouldn't surprise me it he does his "Comeback" match at the BOSJ Finals, Dragon Lee go over someone here, and them set up the match for King of Pro Wrestling or Power Struggle.

I've been wanting Shingo to go heavy since he walked in the door (I don't believe he's under 220 anyway).  So yes please, give him Goto or some other bomb thrower that can go.

SHINGO V ISHII

BOOK THE BEST OF 21

If only Ishii wasn't stuck with carrying Taichi on Sunday....

 

I kid, Taichi's decent.

He will probably beat the winner of Taichi and Ishii and hopefully hold that belt until people forget he came in as a junior. But nobody memorable holds that belt for long.

I like it as a springboard from junior to heavyweight.

NEVER Openweight Championship has grown on me for the Openweight criteria. Not big into it though. Probably has more value to say the IWGP United States Championship. Clearly the IWGP Intercontinental Championship is the most prestigious of the secondary straps.

Moxley/Umino, Kojima/Shingo, Tacos/Liger vs ZSJ/Suzuki, Tana/Juice/Taguchi vs White/Owens/Ishimori, Ishii/Taichi, GOD vs Sanada/EVIL, D Lee/Ospreay, Ibushi/Naito, Okada/Jericho. Odd use of Moxley, but that's a big match for Umino.

Oh and the main event is an Iron Man between Tenzan and Nakanishi of course. Out back on some mats setup by fans.

I want them both. We're down Kenny, Page, and Elgin for sure, while Tama has said he doesn't want to do it. Let Kojima announce that this is his last go, and you still have room to add Ospreay, Shingo, Cobb (if you want an ROH rep and don't want Rush dropping falls).

Anyway, I loved that Juice/Moxley was 50% punches and lariats, so I'm stoked to see Kojima and Shingo dispense with the punches while still upping that percentage.
