The last three matches last night were so good. That's the best Yano match I've seen, too.

 

[Mike5181]

B block is so much better than A block this year. Another really interesting card tonight:

Ibushi vs. Yano
Naito vs. Robinson
Sanada vs. Sabre Jr.
Omega vs. Tonga
Goto vs. Ishii

 

[Athlai]

Omega to lose tonight due to mass interference.

Don't go out on a limb there buddy.

Tonga getting a title shot is still pretty crazy IMO

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hopefully it's a short match. Tama is the pits in the ring.

Big day of wrestles tomorrow. DDT during the day, then G1 again and Dragon Gate's yearly Kobe World show. Will be tough to watch them all unspoiled.

This "Firing Squad" **** is just trash.

Makes me wish Fale was ten years younger. A younger Fale with the experience he has now would legit be so good. Ah well. Can’t have it all

 

[Athlai]

Has Tama ever used the Styles Clash before?

 

[Mike5181]

Slammiversary is worth checking out.

Women's PPV is actually cool. Maybe they'll do interesting stuff with the women in the lead up instead of the stuff they do now.

I see the faces and heels all cried and hugged each other like they did with the rumble and I assume are going back to hating each other a few minutes later

A lot of the recent PPV's have been poor recently so not bothered about this one way or the other, but I don't think the depth is there for the girls if the PPV is close to 3 hours.

TBF none of the female heels are particularly evil, they're just devious or arrogant. No Ciampas present.

Roman vs Lashley was pretty botchy once again, but there is some chemistry between them.

NXT Women's title match and the finals of the MYC will be on it apparently.

That'll help a lot.



Raw title
Smack down title
Tag title
MYC winner
Nxt title

Maybe an elimination chamber or other big multi person match?
Bayley vs. Sasha after they go to **** almost immediately with the tag titles

 

[Niall]

Just no Natalya v Charlotte match for the love of God.

Not keen on the idea of women's tag belts at this stage either (and especially not a set of titles for each brand). Already too many belts as it is, and not sure the women's roster could organically support the creation of a tag division (or divisions).

Mid-card women's singles titles are another idea I have seen mentioned, but same concerns apply.

If they want to go with either of the above ideas it would be best done by creating a women only brand (which tbh I would actually be really interested in), but for various reasons this is surely out of the question.

Re Roman v Lashley at the Extreme Rules PPV - yes botchy despite sparks. Even that fall of Lashley out of the ring made me cringe.

Loving the G1 tournament. Do you guys get to watch all five matches of each day, those putting up the cards of each day here? On DW Sport, only 3 matches from each of the groups comes each week.
