    I thought the same thing when it first happened but then on the slow mo you could tell he was actually in perfect control on his fall

    This is the right answer

    I can’t wait until New Year’s Dash in a few hours!

    Something tells me Jericho’s business in New Japan aint done...

    I’m thinking a fued with Naito is next

    Took away a few things from this. I may catch some flack for some of these things but whatever.
    • I don't really enjoy YB matches as much as everyone else does. It's not that I don't like the YB, it's just that they don't do it for me. I respect the h--- out of them as workers and deeply admire what they have been able to accomplish on the indie scene. Plus BTE is goat.
    • Tokyo Latina and Brandi Rhodes can catch this d-ck!
    • My new favorites are Kota Ibushi, Tetsuya Naito, and Tanahashi.
    • I'm not really a Will Ospreay kinda guy. I respect him as an athlete but i think he looks like a gymnast who wrestles on the side.
    • Omega vs Jericho was match of the night, with it probably being Jericho's best match in his career.
    • Naito should have won. This guy was so over it was insane. I wonder who will stop Okada...............maybe Cheeseburger!

    I watched the last 2 matches again tonight and I don't see how I missed the talking between Kenny and Jericho and also that horrible blade job. Really takes away from the match for me and I still can't believe Naito isn't champ. With all that's been said I found the show to be great and what I've come to expect from NJPW. I wish they put more effort into their tag matches though, those s----s can be lacking

    1.) Okada vs. Naito (****3/4) - I just love slow building matches like these! Naito showed the whole World how talented he is and hit Okada with crazy offensive moves. The match storytelling was also insane. The only thing holding me back from giving this match 5 starts is the wrong winner or the abruct ending in general.

    2.) Omega vs. Jericho (****3/4) - I just have watched this match, that I sadly missed live and gotta say, that Jericho is insane taking these bumps with 47. The hardcore stuff has been utilized perfectly in this match. Jericho played the heel role amazingly. Small critisms I still have about this amazing match, bc I am a shithead, would be for example that I felt there was too much extra about it like Jericho beating up the Young Lions and other multiple things, which were just unnessacarly hurting the pacing of the match and that Kenny repeated his offence a bit too much in this match, but that are rlly small things and the match still ended up being amazing.

    3.) Ibushi vs. Cody (****1/4) - this is kinda underrated by yall imo, bc I have no negative things to say about this tbh, ofc it wasnt as epic as the two main events, but I felt that the stole the show in the limited time phrame there were given and would honestly like to see these two meet in the ring again, their styles mix perfectly.

    After rewatching that 4 way match it just hit me while Ospreay is so dynamic offensively he really does not know how to sell. He springs back up way too often after big moves
