So new Japan loses Ibushi, Nakamaura, Styles, most of the bullet club...that's like WWE losing the New Day, Ambrose, Owens, and Balor. Sucks for NJPW but Michael Elgin is probably loving it.

Shane leading an invasion of Japanese guys. That's going to lead to Vince bringing in Trump and the obvious Pearl Harbor reference.

Donald Trump: I see Shane brought in Japanese guys. He tried to bring On Demand content to China and failed. It's a fact. Look it up. He couldn't be like his dad, my friend, Vince. He can't even be like his sister. I know about having a daughter that is beautiful and successful. You just want to experience sex with her. I meant success with her. You know what I meant. Well, you there with the KO shirt, you probably don't know. Probably Chris Christie's favorite wrestler. Look, I'm joking. Chris is a friend. But it's obvious Shane can't make it on his own. He's jealous of my success, his father's success, and his brother-in-law's success. I met H earlier. Great guy. Says "ah" alot but that's OK. Look Shane the fact is you're a failure with a bunch of Japanese guys behind you, and I'm going to be President. We need better control and power when dealing with other countries. Not this "invasion" you're talking about. With, dare I say refugees. Look at this one. Strong, I don't see any women with him. This one looks like he's in a Michael Jackson disguise. Did we check to see how he entered? Listen, my friend Vince and I are going to make WWE strong again. Not with all of these Japanese, but with American talents like Big Show, Sheamus, and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan. I met him at Wrestlemania. My goodness that eye but the 2x4 is very entertaining. Sorry Shane. Your timing is poor and you're a loser. Vince and I are going to make WWE great again. Oh, Pearl Harbor. Just saying.

If this leads to Funaki being the mouthpiece for this faction, with the crazy racist voiceover guy saying INDEED at the end, I'll mark out like a motherfucker.

My goodness. The camera shots of Maria wrestling are practically soft porn. Haha.

Even the entrances, the cameraman would legit zoom in on her crotch when she'd walk to the ring. I mean, I'm all for zooming in on ass shots, because, I get it, but even I thought that was a bit much.
Still though, when Machine Gun was constantly distracted by her on the apron shaking her ass, also Captain New Japan she distracted too, friggin hilarious.
Not since Debra & the puppies has a lady been as entertaining distracting her guys opponent. Though Maria I think is infinitely more talented than Debra was.

New champ crowned at Invasion Attack.
Kind of shocking.

Cody Hall also got murdered.
Nick jumped from the top of the ramp onto everyone and Cody caught him and went down and never got back up.

Yeah when I watched it it didn't seem like anything bad had happened.
Glad he'll be okay.

So pissed, I was up at 230 ready to watch some, but crashed literally as it was starting.
Happy Cody is going to be ok. Yeah the dive just looked like your normal Bucks dive, but damn, glad he wasn't severely injured.
I'll be watching this & the Masters today.

I just watched the main event (saving the rest for later). Now THAT is the twist you hope for at a big show. I didn't see that finish coming at all!
I bet this will only fuel the Okada rumors.

I thought Sanada looked like a badass. Instant main event level guy.
Loved Naito leaving the belt in the ring. Like he didn't even really care about it.
Tranquilo.

I knew they'd have to give Trent & Romero the tag titles. Ricochet is all but guaranteed to sign with WWE, which is fantastic. Sydal will get a new partner. Sorta thought they'd give Ospreay the title, but I wonder if he's also being signed by WWE? Certainly possible. Ricochet vs Ospreay was said to be the match of the weekend in Dallas for Evolve.
Very surprised they had the six man change though. Big Mike looked real good.
Yes NJPW lost a bunch of talents, but I think they'll be just fine for the time being. Lots of talent on their roster.

I believe Ospreay just signed at least a one-year deal.

Watching NJPW on AXS and man JR is rough to listen to.
He can't keep up with the action and sounds like he struggles to tell the story.
Sad.

If he can't keep up with New Japan then he can't keep up with anything.

It just sounds... off.
He doesn't have it anymore.

Those taping schedules sound brutal. Who wants to sit in a sound booth for hours on end calling six month old matches?

David Finlay & Chase Owens (who is apparently a Bullet Club member that I had no idea about) are replacing the Bucks for the Super Juniors. While I would've loved someone else from ROH to get a chance, David Finlay has been super impressive in his matches in NJPW. Never seen Chase Owens before.
I'm psyched for this tournament.

Mullet, glasses, short shorts, those fucking shoes! It's weird that him carrying his son like luggage is the 5th best thing about this picture!
