Yoshytatsu’s current run in AJPW has been pretty decent imo, so I don’t see him dragging the match down too bad.

Plus, someone’s got to take the pin.

Yoshytatsu’s current run in AJPW has been pretty decent imo, so I don’t see him dragging the match down too bad.

Plus, someone’s got to take the pin.

As long as he doesn't have to work a long control section or do a key comeback, it should be fine. He's decent enough.

I have seen him drag some interesting tag matches though. I remember one of the first Violent Giants (or maybe it was Doering/Suwama) vs Kento/Yoshi matches and Miyahara had to literally do everything to make the match compelling

Cats were selling front row seats for the NJ Lite LA show for 30 bucks. Other tickets were as low as 10 bucks.

That team of Honma, Okabayashi, Naoya Nomura and Narita sounds dope as fukk

Maru vs Mochizuki isn't a singles match after all, oh well, should have seen it coming.

The semi main event is fukking Mil still hogging the spotlight.

2, 4, and 9 should be dope.

Wait, thought the Marufuji-Mochizuki was going to be a singles match Ah, well, they have to cram everyone they can.
