And we are that much closer to ZSJ vs Ibushi, the match everyone has wanted to see since Round 1
Noam Dar and ZSJ getting a standing ovation? Sounds like some FAN members are gonna eat shit when this is done
Perkins would be a great heel for the Cruiserweight Division, he comes off like such an arrogant douche it's easy, and if you remember his TNA Run Tweets, even easier!
And good news for Full Sail, Kendrick isn't going anywhere
I hope the other matches are aired as well, I want to see more of these guys I hope seeing more of them means they're gonna be signed in some capacity
Really hope Gallagher is signed though, sad to see he isn't in any of these matches... we NEED more Gallagher...

Those sound like some amazing matches.
Also, a neckbreaker onto the metal bracket of the turnbuckles? F***ing OW!!!!

But will Ibushi finally agree to a WWE contract so that he'll have a chance of winning?

Lince Dorado and Kenneth Johnson is the most random and most amazing team.

I'm really glad to see TJP make it this far. This dude is MONEY and has been more impressive in this tournament than he has anywhere else. He needs to be on Raw ASAP, preferable as the heel inaugural champ.

It all depends on who signs a contract with the company really so yeah ZSJ and Ibushi won't be winning. TJ Perkins is probably my go to guy. Him against Neville is money.

Don't care who wins ("well I told you so Ibushi wins!!!", "heh as predicted ZSJ wins!!" "nanannananananananna!!!"), do care about good wrestling, and it should be mighty fine

Especially if they aren't signing then I don't think Ibushi or ZSJ should get this, but I think with TJ Perkins having beaten out both Gargano and Swann, the indication they're going with him seems strong, since they're two of the guys who went into this already signed to contracts. Especially with the match having taken place "days after" the Brooklyn tag title match and even throwing in the worked knee injury in the aftermath of a match that hadn't happened yet. It all feels like they wanted him to go over Gargano when it was an even bigger deal and he'd just gotten off of a big show match. Just seems like he's the one getting prepped for it the most.

Totally expected it to be Zack vs Akira and Swann vs Ibushi but I like these results.
The finals need to be Zack vs Perkins with Perkins going over.

Ibushi's winning this regardless of if he signs or not. He's just the most believeable, plus HHH is clearly more interested in fostering the relationship with New Japan than anything. Would love to see Cedric vs Swann though at some point; that'd be magic

Bullshit, Perkins over Swann. Perkins round one match was better. His match with Gargano was good but not as good as Perkins' and Gargano's first round matches respectively.

Would love to see Cedric vs Swann though at some point; that'd be magic Ibushi left New Japan. Though there's murmurs he might go back for a match with Kenny Omega. Given TJP has been announced for the RAW division and the other three haven't, I think he wins. He'll get the Jericho-like distinction of beating Ibushi and ZSJ in one night, then hopefully WWE sees sense and hires Stokely Hathaway to be his manager on RAW.

WWE doesn't have the foresight to give TJP that kind of rub, and Ibushi is definitely more established in dis BIZNESS lol

If I had to guess, I'm thinking an Metalik/Ibushi finals with Metalik winning the whole thing.

My seemingly far-fetched dream of Perkins winning is one step closer to coming true.

I'd really like to see Gran Metalik win the whole thing but I don't think that's going to happen.
