>Shingo Takagi
I sleep

this except the opposite
shingo is the only one there who doesn't make me sleep

>Evil
I sleep

Hiromu vs. Ebil would be fun if it were an actual match and not lolHoT
Shingo/Chase is a clinched 3 star classic

meh card but I'm awake anyway, might as well

>Chase Owens
>EVIL
Yuck.

If they go through with Hiromu/Shingo then this tournament is a pure homerun

Too bad they fucking won't

It would suck if they didn't, this is likely one of the few opportunities for that match to happen.

>SANADA's got a broken orbital bone
I knew it, stoppage was likely due to the injury then

hahahahahahahahaha fuck you SANADA

i wonder if they will really let Shingo kill chase in 5 minutes like he's been saying he will
i think GOD is gonna be the one to help/save Hiromu and not LIJ (LMAO) from bullet club

>NJPWWorld subtitle the HoT post-match run-ins every time
>Never subtitle O-Khan's micless promos
I wonder why this is, because it's far easier to infer what commentary are talking about during the run-ins (plus they rarely have anything different to say from English commentary) while you're fucked if Kelly's without Chris on commentary for O-Khan's promos

>Ibushi gets concussion vs Ospreay
>get to use Hidden Blade as the reason why, putting the move over
>SANADA cracks his eye socket vs Ospreay
>Ospreay pummels him with elbows for the finish
It always ends up kino for Ospreay in the end

The elbow stoppage finish is fucking genius honestly, adds another heel wrinkle to his in-ring game. If that was them calling an audible and not the planned finish that's really impressive.

Honma I love you but please don't headbutt my Japanese superhero father

Desperado's back is more distracting than Tenzan's ankles

I've never noticed it until someone mentioned in the 2.3 gamethread

?

Niggas I hate Yujiro he doesn't even have any bitches around anymore to distract me from that

Someone said he's got a humpback, I really only see it when he's standing up straight

YOU MAKE ME FEEL SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

THAT WAS AMAZING

M M M M MMMMMMMMMMM

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAH

this and when pieter is there the camera guys are faggots.
Its been 30 mins and the second match just ended I am thinking that even with pre match shenanigans shingo vs. chase is gonna be quick

Fales theme slaps so hard

...God fucking dammit

i might like the match if it just goes like 12 minutes, Shingo takes out the whole of HoT with the DANGER ZONE spot, and wins with a pumping bomber

Fuck all these nerds.
GUERILLA TACTICS
WHATTTTTTTTTT?

He beat Tanga with a pumping bomber, he could definitely beat Chase with one

>GOD is one of the most over face tag teams in NJPW
kek

The Tonga Express is going to make waves

>Kevin still calling Tanga T
pretty based
