Anyone just looking forward to how JR will call Okada's entrance? Really, this is something I'm unproportionally excited about. I am dying to hear how JR does. His last bit of work in WWE was rough but it's easy to believe that it's the WWE system that was killing him, I'm very curious if we're gonna see JR play it pretty straight or if we're gonna get some BAH GODS tonight. Compared to 1980's NWA Jim Ross, I don't think he is capable of playing it straight. At least not as straight laced as he was back then, which is when he was at his peak IMHO. Still, even if he is more emotional and cartoony I think he can still be very entertaining on this show. Just as long as he doesn't play it up TOO MUCH.

Okay I just paid for it through the FLIPPS app. It might have just made itself available because I literally looked at it like five minutes ago and it said I couldn't purchase it. What message are you getting? I keep getting the red "buy" button. When I click on it, it says "Purchase Transaction - Purchase is already initiated." I hope you're getting the same thing. That way, I can stop over thinking this.

While JR is still my guy, I actually don't mind watching the show with the Japanese announcers because it's awesome and hilarious every time they start freaking out on commentary.

That way, I can stop over thinking this. I'm operating on a Google Nexus tablet so maybe it functions differently but if I click on Wrestle Kingdom I get a blue button that says "Play" where "Buy" used to be. When I made the purchase it went through the Google Store, and it returned a receipt to my email. Maybe try resetting your device? "Purchase already initiated" is really weird phrasing, as if something started but hasn't finished yet.

I'm going to try to stay up to watch this tonight, but I have a few quick questions:
How long of a show are we looking at? It starts at 1:00 am for me, & I'm just wondering what time I'll have to stay up to.
I'm familiar with roughly a third to a half of the guys on the card. Is there some sort of preview, or any matches you recommend I watch as a primer?
I've seen conflicting answers on whether the battle royal will be shown. Is there a definitive answer there? Used to be a big Liger fan, but haven't seen him in years. Would be interested to see him again.
Thanks!

I'm disappointed most cable systems aren't offering it live tonight. I have Comcast, so it's not airing until 7 tomorrow night. So I guess that means I'll just have to wait for that, since I want to watch it with the JR commentary. Flipps just worries me a little with the possibility of crashing and all that. Will just have to stay off all wrestling sites until tomorrow night.

I've never watched a NJPW show before but I'm highly interested in this. Just debating whether to attempt to stay awake from 1-5am or to just stay spoiler free and watch tomorrow night. My cable company is offering it on PPV tonight but not in HD because of UFC. It will be in HD tomorrow night.

Anyone have links to good video clips to catch up on NJPW for this show?
I've been out of the loop on Japanese wrestling for a good decade.
