Meltzer:

Okada has publicly stated that he and Tanahashi will have a six-star match at the Tokyo Dome. Well, that’s a good way to have a ****½ match and still leave people disappointed.

Did he get a full time spot like Rocky and Machine Gun or is he tour to tour?

From what I can tell, he's full time for New Japan.

Yeah, he signed a contract last month before the tour.

So after the Shibata/Nakamura match, Ibushi came out. He jumping up to Heavyweight? Or did I read the situation wrong?

He jumped up to heavyweight after he lost the Jr title. He was supposed to be in the G1 again but got hurt in the title switch. Before the last tour it was made official that he's bulking up. He's gotten noticeably bigger already.

This Dome show is setting up to be one of the all-timers. Okada/Tana, Naka/Ibushi, and AJ/Naito

You really want to see Okada/Tana again though? Maybe its my bias against Tanahashi but its starting to get Cena/Orton levels of redundant. Good matches but done to death.
