Shibata can be a normal human being, that's all I'm asking for :mjcry:

Gonna watch the Finals in a bit.

The Finals was another needlessly long match, I didn't really care about the first 10 or so minutes of this - the piledriver spot was unnecessary and badly done imo - besides the first minute of both guys refusing to lock up. BUT, once Omega got control and started to work on Naito's neck this one turned the corner for me. The match was full of the excesses I'm not very fond of nowadays but the context of the match (G-1 Finals) and the fact that they kept building to more drama and bigger stuff made it ok for me to get passed my reservations for this sort of match. All in all, the last 2/3 of the match were an outstanding spotfest with a red hot crowd. I liked this better than Okada/Omega I :salute:



edit: Chono dapping Naito at the end was :wow: on sooo many levels :wow:

Yujiro with the hoes on deck again. Dude looks like such a scumbag, I wouldn't be surprised to find out he was selling Muffin Ass' used underwear to businessmen out the back of the arena.

Taguchi with the 'JUMP AND WAVE :damn:!" Soca Theme music :dead:

My dog Ricochet working most of the match on one leg was low-key a :youngsabo:to the "Bu-bu-but he only does ballet" crowd.

GOATsuyori Shibata back :blessed:. I genuinely marked out when his music hit. The way the whole crowd lit up was :wow:. People :mjcry:in the crowd afterwards too.

Suzuki calling Elgin "A White pig" :russ:
All tournament long Minoru has been on his "Summertime is the killing season/ It's hot out this bytch, that's a good enough reason :birdman:"

The final was a really satisfying end to the Tournament. Naito getting legendary dap and the return of Darryl:wow:

The way the whole crowd :whoa: :merchant: when Naito went to the throw the trophy :pachaha:. Dude has turned the appearance of not giving a single fukk into an artform. :salute:

- Early on in this year's tournament, Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi teased a feud (Omega was unhappy that Ibushi left NJPW last year) with the potential of the two wrestlers meeting in the finals. While Omega made it, Ibushi came up short, but he was backstage to speak with Omega just after his loss. In the NJPW's photo below, Omega doesn't seem like he wants to talk, continuing the potential feud.

:blessed:
