BARNES OUT
It was pretty good 15 years ago, one of my personal favourite matches. I doubt it will be good now.

Hunter works two matches a year, at best. Takashi Sugiura had heart surgery in 2017, is the same age as HHH and is literally beating the **** outta people every week as the GHC Heavyweight Champ. Really though, watch:

PAC (Neville) being back and in Dragon Gate is nice. DG's been all over the place this year so far so hopefully this stabilises the loss of Shingo for RED.

Bit of fun but would never do it again
Lack of match commentary at ground had a definite impact as crowd responded to noice, music etc but for 70% of the time there was very little atmosphere
Far better watching at home, bar, etc
Some of the people in the crowd were.... interesting

Between the WWE & the Cher concert next door, there were some some things that nobody should see twice

One of the interesting things for me was how relatively small the modern day wrestler is
Guys like Strowman & Reigns are huge but much smaller than Undertaker or Kane
There’s obviously a premium placed on athleticism/aerials these days (CWs were incredible btw) as some of the others aren’t very big at all
I stayed in the room next to Daniel Bryan and he’s lucky to be 5’10

Not Terrible
Yeah, and I’d include Strowman in this boat (I know he’s only 6’6 or so), but it’s nice to have a big man who seems to have a whole heap of raw talent and charisma. And it’s been great to have so many blokes around to help him develop like Kane and especially Big Show. Reckon wrestling was robbed of a real mega star Big Show/Giant by the poor handling of him in his younger years. A young Giant/Big Show coming through NXT etc. today would be a pretty gun prospect.
Backstage also looks far less like the den of vipers it was in the 90s and early 00s.

I actually follow the WWE but don't take it too seriously
Brought up with it and have a young son so have been watching it for decades so know most of the back stories
Most impressive for me were the CWs as how they don't kill themselves is anybody's guess
As I mentioned, the lack of commentary was a real downer but Cena is a thorough professional and revved up the audience at a point when the promoters/WWE thought it was tanking to the audience in attendance.
He "performed" for maybe a minute but got the crowd interested again on the mike
It's a very slick machine and the message obviously reached him & he did his job
I was completely amazed by the people in our section
It was $1000 plus per head and 90% + were diehards/idiots without $1001 to their name, swore that it wasn't choreographed and literally had the greatest night of their lives
Very weird!
Save your money and watch it at home or in the pub is my advice

Shingo is ****ing great.
But I'm so damn pissed that he went to NJPW to be stuck in the Jnr division. This guy had the best Champion Carnival out of anyone, had legit classic matches against all of the big guys there and now he's gonna be stuck in 6-man tags eating the pin from ****s like Elgin. Damn, I'm heated.

He wrestles a HW style. He was the big guy in Dragon Gate.
He's spent his career wrestling Jnr's so he will be great in the ring with them, but the Jnr division is booked like ass and basically exist to eat pins for 11 months a year when the BOSJ isn't on.

Oh Chris
Shingo could easily challenge Ospreay for the NEVER belt after the Jr Tag Titles tour is done fwiw. i would like that direction (assuming they won't put a rocket on the junior division which would be my preference)
you've come so far in such a short period of time. tears are rolling down my face. you're so much further ahead than my lazy arse
