Solid looking card. Will be interested to see how it draws.

[MTR]

Yeah that is a solid card. if I still had my subscription I would watch that.

SANADA DID IT!

[Defrost]

Very good angle with ELP. All the title matches ranged from good to great. Very excited to see SANADA run the LIJ gauntlet.

[Tainted Eclipse]

saw a couple clips of the last exchange of the match, nice to hear a sumo hall crowd pretty hot again. i cancelled by new japan world subscription because i haven't really used it in three years but maybe i will try to watch this show.

[Tainted Eclipse]

didn't know sanada changed his look. i kinda like it.

[Tainted Eclipse]

shota umino's tanahashi cosplay is something else

[MTR]

Glad to see Sanada get the belt. Well deserved.

I see Aussie Open got the tag belts. I have become a fan of theirs over the last several months. It was fun to see them live when they were part of the ROH taping in St. Louis before Supercard of Honor. Crowd was so into them.

[Defrost]

Yeah the tag title match was great. Fletcher busts the back of head open really bad, but since this is a proper wrestling promotion the match didn't stop.
