DOUKI's getting a good showcase in this 6-Man tag. Could be a promising sign for his BoSJ.
Suzuki-Gun are really wanting DOUKI to get the pin.

I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I genuinely want YOSHI-HASHI and DOUKI to have a singles match after this. They did a great job carrying the 6-Man.
YOSHI-HASHI seems to have other plans, him and Goto wanting the tag belts. Keep an eye out for this in the Tag League.

Would make for a good Power Struggle opener.

I genuinely think the NEVER 6-man title match from yesterday is a legit match of the year contender.
And does that mean Zack is going to wrestle twice at Power Struggle?

Jeez, I've been trying to be kind to EVIL during this whole main event run, as I was a fan of him in LiJ. But jeezo, Naito practically shit all over this match.
Posted this in WK thread by mistake.

Hot damn that six-man title match was wicked. YOSHI is making everyone sorry for the jokes previously made about him, putting in the work.

Sorry YOSHI-HASHI I'm accepting nothing less then my Ishii/Goto f*** everyone up tag team I know there's faction-related reasons why it can't happen, but I'd rather have a Goto/Shingo tag team, somehow.

2 title matches set: El Desperado & Kanemaru will defend the junior tag titles against BUSHI & Hiromu on the November 1 show. and ZSJ & Taichi will defend the heavyweight tag titles against Goto & Yoshi-Hashi on the November 2 show. Dangerous Tekkers have really made me care about the tag titles again. Not looking forward to G.O.D. returning and bringing the division back down. Is it possible Despy and Kanemaru drop the belts? That would make Hiromu a double champion, can't see that leading into Wrestle Kingdom. But I have a feeling or maybe just hoping, Despy will win BOSJ. They were building up to a match between him and Hiromu before his injury that left him out of last year's tournament. Plus his NEVER title shot against Shingo, this feud between Despy and LIJ is nothing new. But I suppose we should see the field for BOSJ, before assuming winners. I also wonder what gaijin could come in. If they can, definitely can see ACH, TJP, El Phantasmo, Gresham and Rocky coming in for this.

I also wonder what gaijin could come in. If they can, definitely can see ACH, TJP, El Phantasmo, Gresham and Rocky coming in for this. Hiromu dropped the Junior belt to Ishimori at Jingu, so LiJ can win the tag belts without it causing any issues.
With regards to the BoSJ & WTL tournaments, I believe that we're going to be see each tournament consist of 10 entries in a single-block format. As far I'm aware, the first day of the tour will feature the first round of both tournaments, then they'll swap between each tournament until the penultimate & final show which also consists of both tournaments. As such, I don't think they're going to bring in as many gaijin for this tournament as they did for the G1. To be honest, I think Ryu Lee is the only one they'd go out of their way to ensure is present for the tournament.
Those 3 shows sharing both tournaments will need to have good pacing in the booking, but the rest of the tour will be an easy watch like the G1 was with just C-Block in the undercard.
My prediction for BoSJ is: Ishimori, Hiromu, Bushi, SHO, Despy, Kanemaru, DOUKI, Gedo, Taguchi, Wato.
