Hoping for Okada VS Omega III at Wrestle Kingdom 12.
Most interested in option 2. Not really interested in other two options.ヒュー G. レックション;5707859 said:The last matches really were excellent. I am very surprised Kushida won! But that match was awesome, and I like that New Japan don't shy away from tapout finishes. I am loving the junior division right now!
Tanahashi, despite being limited, put on yet another classic with Naito. I really did want Naito to win but the match was so good I can't complain. Naito tapping out to the cloverleaf was also a very refreshing finish.
Both would've been fitting ends to any show... But here we have a main event of main events... Once again I doubted what they were doing in the early minutes, and once again I ended up being absolutely blown away. I really think this match was on par with WK's... Was it better? It's really difficult for me to decide. The match was very different to WK's but still an amazing piece of storytelling with so many memorable moments. The fact they managed to reach such a level of quality again, is such a huge achievement.
It seems I'm turning to that too... I thought Naito was an absolute guarantee. But now we have 3 potential G1 scenarios:
1) Naito wins, challenges Okada
2) Kenny wins again
3) Okada wins as champ then calls out Kenny
I really like option 3. If Okada were to win as champ, call out Kenny and then lose to him at WK, that would be wonderful. His own arrogance would be his downfall.
Here's what I'll do.ヒュー G. レックション;5707869 said:So how do they get there? Do you think Omega and Okada should be in the same block, or face each other in the finals? Or would you want Okada to lose some matches so he doesn't reach the final?
Here's the thing... It's going to be very difficult/weird seeing Okada taking clean pins now. Of course every champion has done so previously going into the G1... But I dunno... This title reign has been so fucking special. Dare I say the best title reign ever! I think if he went through his block undefeated, then lost to Omega in the finals? It shoukd be noted the G1 final is a rare instance of a match with no time limit! That would make it 1-1-1 each. Then WK FINALLY sets it.
Of course I'm just shooting out possibilities. I'm so excited to see the G1 blocks!
Just watched the match between Dragon Lee and Will Ospreay. Liked it a lot. Dragon Lee has a new fan in me. I've some selling issues with Will Ospreay but he's alright otherwise.
Haven't seen it yet. Will download it today.Have you watched the BoSJ final between Ospreay/KUSHIDA? The way that Ospreay sold the arm in that match was borderline perfect. He is still in his early 20s, and the consistency of his selling from match-to-match is coming along quite nicely, and in a match like the last one versus KUSHIDA, where the selling being done at a high level is absolutely crucial to the story of the match coming together as planned, he already has the ability to step up and hit the occasional home run.
