[Accident Prone]

Heads up guys; train strikes are going down tomorrow so make sure you check your journey before heading out. It's caused a ton of bother for my brother, who I'm now picking up and adding two hours into my drive time.

What a cursed weekend. If these shows don't deliver then I'm shoving both my petrol bill and my therapist bill up Gedo's arse.

Anyone got any info on where is best to park? The venue seems to have shocking parking.

Bromley.

For people going, the Underground is mostly fine tomorrow but Overground is covered by strike action. You can get busses from Brixton on the Victoria line.

JONAH hasn't made the show unfortunately due to Hurrican Ian.

I could see putting Knight in the multiman and putting Umino or Kidd against Ishii.

I'll be spitting feathers if they put someone decent against ishii tomorrow. I always get the shitter of the two shows when promotions do weekends!

I had more fun tonight than at the Copper Box I think. FTR v Aussie Open was fantastic.

Apart from the main, what else was good? Looked pretty weak to me on paper. Sure it was far more enjoyable in person but doesn't feel like something I'm disappointed I missed.

The main event was fantastic, not quite sure on what happened with the end of the ospreay Match but felt the other matches were very much going through the motions but wasn't sure if that was just the live factor.

Venues a weird one though, not sure I'd go there for wrestling again 

[Michael_3165]

I loved the main event and Shota matches, though the ending came out of nowhere. The other matches were average but the crowd bought it up. Female match wasn't well received  the crowd died. I liked the opener.

Ospreay match was really fun, 6 man with ZSJr and Naito was great. Venue was excellent and had a unique atmosphere. Probably helped that at the Copper Box we were at the back, whereas here there wasn't a bad seat in the place. Roll on tomorrow!

Quite agree there, wherever you sat you would have had prime seats. Was even good if you stood up by the bar area
