Enjoy the show, ladies & gentlemen.

>Dragon Lee, Jushin Thunder Liger, Titán & Volador Jr. vs. Bushi, Evil, Hiromu Takahashi & Sanada

Hope Lee and Hiromu get into it so much that it leads to a one on one match the next day. Best feud in wrestling.
>>
>>2820368
CM Punk, Dave Batista, and Stephen Amell will be in the front row. Stone Cold has a second home in Los Angeles so he might attend especially with J.R. being on commentary.

>a bunch of shitty tag matches
So why do you guys watch this jap garbage again?
>>
>>2820948
unlike the E, tag matches serve as undercard to excite the crowd and even advance or create new feuds. I know you are not used to tag matches having a purpose, so enjoy watching the show to see the difference.
>>
>LIJ vs CMLL and naito vs ishii being the only two matches worth watching
what did njpw mean by this
>>
>>2820959
they pretty much exposed how little they think of the US market

this is on par with their shitty "road to" shows they run in the japanese boondocks
>>
>>2820959
They are just testing water. Do you expect a company to blow off a huge load for an uncharted territory?
>>
>>2820972
If your intention is to take your share of the market then yes.The fact you have Cody in the main event against Okada, whilst trying to appeal to the american audience doesnt shout "Come watch me." Cody isnt a draw as much as some people or himself believe. If Okada is a big fish in a small pond, then Cody's the tadpole.
>>
>>2820993
Its sold out. Every Wrestling Fan will watch it. Stop being a whiny asshole and have fun.
>>
>>2821010
How many tickets were sold?
>>
>>2821014
In the area of four to five thousand over two days.
>>
>>2821010
it sold out before they mentioned who was even going to be there
don't act like it was cody who drew them there

I'd be willing to bet that there will be a bit more hesitation next time around until the actually put out the card
>>
>>2820368
What day is this?
>>
>>2821019
If they hit a home run for these events (which I'm sure they will), they'll likely sell out like hot cakes again next year.

What if you were to give this company to, say, twenty... intelligent people I mean, what would that do? Let's face it, what would it do?
>>
>>2821019
As much as I despise Cody, at the end of the day I still think it's a good pick to put iwgp and ROH champ against each other. To me, the show is more marketing-based rather than the usual legit long term booking.
>>
How much for the show to start?
>>
>>2821083
>I still think it's a good pick to put iwgp and ROH champ against each other
So do I. Which is why I say Daniels and Okada would've put on a hell of a match.

But /wooo/'s been fairly reliable when it comes to streaming big events.

On a sidenote, will it be happening? You guys expect PM Cuck to make an appearance? Even if he's in the crowd?

I'm mostly interested to see how much Okada kills himself to make Cody look good.

Tonight's special won't be on it though. I'm mad.
>>
How many bongs?
>>
>>2822614
kek it would be great if it was just a straight up squash. Okada can make anyone look good though. Watch Tenryu's retirement match for proof. Tenryu could barely get in the ring without stumbling and Okada managed to carry that broken down old fuck to an actual good match.
