Here's the show lineup from da Meltz

--Tomorrow's wacky IGF show at Tokyo Sumo Hall has this lineup:

*Jon Anderson (powerlifter) vs. Taka Kuno (judo)
*Predator (Sylvester Terkey, NCAA champion) vs. Bobby Lashley (NAIA champion)
*Tank Abbott vs. Josh Barnett
*Rob Van Dam vs. Necro Butcher vs. Kendo Ka Shin
*Naoya Ogawa vs. Montanha Silva - Inoki is doing a last minute angle trying to drum up interest by saying if Ogawa loses, he will be fired. To put the Inoki-Ogawa "feud" over, Ogawa no-showed the press conference. Doesn't matter, because they don't live up to stips anyway.

Tomko is also on the card. Stan Hansen, Chyna and Yoshiaki Fujiwara are being brought in as celebrities (thanks to Ryan Moehring)

Inoki your so crazy!

Necro wrestled on the last IGF show and got the fans behind him and got an Inoki handshake.

More pics from the event.

It's Stan Hansen godamnit!

Tank Abbott is fighting Josh Barnett and Tank Abbott's gut is fighting gravity.

Tomko so does not want to be there while Lashley couldn't look more happy.

Yeah I got nothing for that. Inoki's f***ing nuts.

Terkay is channeling his inner Brody.

Look at those smurfing boots, he definitely channeling Brody.

The dreaded trapezoidal claw.

Lashley channeling the energy of the 400 people there.

Terkay is a beast.

GORE~!

No wonder Tomko likes Japan, they must give him tons of free food.

Wait, so Inoki is now Gallagher III?

I have a podcast "Nothing's Funny with Jeff & Josh". We have a Halloween episode up as of today (October 31st appropriately enough).

And We have a Twitter page as well. @nadafunnypod. Someone already had the handle "NothingsFunny", and @nothingsfunnypod doesn't fit. So we had to use the Spanglish option.
