Okada was certainly not a happy boy post-match.

Of course there is always the possibility that this is all a work to build to a singles match down the line between the two of them, but if it fires up Okada then I’m all for it

[TildeGuy~!]

Match announced!  They’re not messing about.

A bunch of Jay White fans were moaning on twitter crying about why could Okada not be this fiery against Switchblade. I mean it's hard for someone to have fire when your opponent is going "oooh, matron" for 20 minutes. 

Also we can all agree that the Moneyclip was the worst idea a wrestler has had since Shibata went "yeah, I'll headbutt this guy right now"

Surely a champion vs champion match is just leading to a time limit draw or a dodgy finish?

That so many are doubting it’s a work shows how good a work it is. Bravo. That they done a German suplex spot mid brawl should be a clue tho haha

I hadn’t seen that. The clip I watched cut off after he chucked him on the table ?

Easily the best version of Okada in the last 3 years.

They want £30 for the PPV. I'm sure it'll be grand but fuck that noise.

I’m sure if you were to find somewhere where you can Watch Wrestling you’ll not be hurting in the pocket

I'll put it in spoilers just in case.

Jay White lost so he's now gone from Japan, I'd selfishly like to see him in AEW but I have a feeling Trips has offered him a nice deal.

This is rather sweet, don't think I didn't catch the "this is where my heart is" either.

Has anyone watched the NJPW show from last night? How was Mercedes? Any better than the debut? 

I've seen posts on twitter saying it was one of the greatest women's matches ever, but you know how Twitter is. If people on here say it is, or at least very good, I'll go out of my way to check it out.

It's fine, mone still has a lot of bad habits (her footwork at the start was terrible) but it's a respectable match where you're constantly reminded Eddie Guerrero is Dead.

I’ll probably watch it tomorrow, through clips I’ve seen it looks like a good match plus Kairi’s been great since her return to Stardom.
