    That main event was insane. Think Ibushi and Omega got injured after the match. They went strong style alright.

    I had to miss that. I watched everything else but the damn show was on too late. What time did it end?

    4 1/2 hours, lol. Yeah **** was longer than a raw episode. New Japan is coming back to the states on July 7th at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. If it wasn't for work I'd buy a ticket for that venue. I think it holds like 12k

    Yeah that's a shame. I really wanted to see that match. Everything else was pretty good though.

    Will Ospreay is the real MVP

    I mostly fast forward through Raw now, but did catch a commercial that there'll be a Houston NXT house show on May 20. Tickets go on sale this Friday.

    Sakura Genesis had a nuts match between Ospreay and Scurll.

    That bad fall Ospreay took on the apron was as scary as anything I've seen in a while, although the bleeding did add a bit to the match.

    So who's making the road trip? I'll be heading out tonight, stay in Baton Rouge for the night, hit up WrestleCon in the morning, Axxess at 1pm, NXT at night, party on Bourbon for the first of many nights, then the main show for Wrestlemania on Sunday. Should be a pretty epic weekend.

    I want to, but most of the Indy shows I was interested were yesterday and today. I'll be at Takeover, so I'll miss the ROH show, debating on Raw on Monday since I'll be in NOLA till Tuesday.

    You'll be there live to see the first of the post-Wrestlemania call-ups that happen if you go to RAW.

    The thing was 5.5 hours long and he was last. I hope WWE learns from this. I threw in the towel after like 20 minutes of Hillbilly Jim's speech. The Dudley's was a decent length and was entertaining.

    I've been to the last 2 post WM Raws, Enzo/Cass debut in Dallas was amazing, Revival's debut last year was meh, Roode's debut post Summerslam at Smackdown was great

    Not sure who'd be call ups this year, hoping for AOP, Iconic, McIntyre

    What are the odds he'll show up at Mania, Raw, or Smackdown?

    Unfortunately high since Vince has some sort of fascination with him. They apparently talked a couple of months ago about another return. I find him boring as **** with a boring moveset and an annoying character, but whatever,
