Despy obviously isn't going to beat Okada, but that'll likely be a hell of a match. Makes me wonder, though, what Okada vs Wato would look like. Wato's still so new, but I'm guessing they will more or less have to let him get his stuff in, both since he's a champion and since he'd be fresh while Okada's likely getting something of a war on his first round.

Whatever it is, Wato just needs to keep things simple. Speed and agility versus the power and technique of Okada. No crazy lucha stuff that he doesn't know how to do. That's how he gets in trouble.

Jesus that's a NCAA sized Tournament bracket. Is this the largest tournament in Pro Wrestling history?

Why is the Anniversary Show card so awful.
No champ vs champ main event, no title matches or singles matches at all.
It’s a freakin Road To show.
Woof
