If you order from the Japanese site, you get a discount because the dollar is worth more than the yen.

Slept in. Ready to go. So hyped.

That Muta video makes me want to see Muta/Taker. They'd never do it in a million years, but I bet he'd get over.

[FedEx227]

Slept in. Ready to go. So hyped.

Successful convinced the girlfriend to go hang out with her friend. Friend was hyped for hang so the +1 is hyped as well.

Running home, downing some Sleepytime tea, hitting the sack around 7-8pm CST, wake up, watch this bad boy live and we're good to go people!

Warner, how would you rate that ring construction?

Been reading around, some are saying a really strong ****1/2 construction.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Tiger Mask is off the show due to illness.

Yohei Komatsu def. Sho Tanaka in a decision match yesterday to replace him. The ran a three match warm up card across the street in Differ Ariake.

This show had the best entrances ever. Won't post them all yet to spoil, but this was some production they put on.
