I'm 5 minutes into the main event, and even though the sound is out of sync (I hate that), this is so awesome. Tanahashi is working this as a heel, and the crowd is having fun with it and giving him resounding BOOOOO's at every turn...and Tanahashi is eating it up.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Awesome match. More of a sprint than the typical Tanahashi main event, so don't let the 40 minute run time fool you (the match is much shorter than that). Action from bell to bell, awesome near falls, basically what you would expect from the best heavyweight in the world against the best junior.

I popped for Tanahashi's heel antics, especially when he did a mock air guitar to a chorus of boo's.

Gonna wait for this to end up on YouTube before I watch the rest, the sound being out of sync is driving me nuts.

Downloaded the main event match yesterday but need to find the time to actually watch it.

Downloaded the main event match yesterday but need to find the time to actually watch it.

The match itself is under 20:00 and probably half of your download. Lots of pre & post match stuff.

Half day because of the snow?

Know what I'm doing the rest of the day.

It's been a bit chilly here. Breezy 70, partly cloudy. Had to wear a jacket today. What is this, January?
