That was a good finals. Probably up there with Mox/Kenta as Strong's best match

Lawlor was always the clear choice He was who I expected most. I think my only real reservation was if he would potentially be too busy, but I guess if that were to become the case, he could just drop the title, anyway.

I'm glad DOUKI's getting a lot of play as of late. Helps I am just a big Suzuki-Gun fan, anyway.
I am into basically most of empire outside of Will being an underwhelming top heel to me, but, outside of personal issues regarding him, I will say that is not uncommon for an IWGP champion. Like a good half of the first run ones are expected to grow on the job, like how Jay White and Okada frankly were steps down when they won, with the expectation it'd help them evolve with the belt and its responsibilities.

As a result of a state of emergency in Tokyo, and in the best interests of wrestlers and staff, May 8, 10 and 11 Korakuen Hall events have been cancelled.

Joining The United Empire appears to be what Henare needed

People been clamoring for years for the trigger to be pulled on Sanada but until he signs a full contract that ain't happening

Ospreay and Cobb did quite a double team maneuver in their match
