I was thinking he was going to return soon.

I was thinking he was going to return soon. Yeah, it was really down to whether or not they felt he had a role for Wrestle Kingdom. Looks like he very well might.

Great to have him back, he and Narita are the future of the company.

If Shibata is returning full time, I think it'll happen at WK17.

If you still think FTR aren't team of the year, watch their match today.

Gotta wonder what Naito's plans for WK are now.

Gotta wonder what Naito's plans for WK are now. Wasn't Kenoh calling him out? I'd guess a LIJ/KONGO confrontation or winning the WTL are the avenues he has for a big match at WK. That or however the heck they'll handle KOPW this year. I'd guess with just one WK night, we'll have the RAMBO~! in the pre-show and the first holder on NYD. Also attendance is up from the G1 in the same venue, which is expected but still good to see.

Not a fan of when champions miss tournaments, but I knew it was unlikely to see FTR in World Tag League this year. Excited to see the official lists for both leagues, especially with some notable omissions (Tana, Naito, SANADA, O-Khan) at this point at WK.
I know they say Cobb is injured, but it might just be giving him time off while preserving Aussie Open at UE's heavyweight tag team of choice going forward, instead of having AO face Cobb/O-Khan at that point. Henare also deserves a little extra run, as he'll likely be Rambo-bound at the Dome.
Narita and Shooter getting prime placements is great to see, with a shift in the company clearly happening as some Dads getting closer to retiring and some former stars turn into Dads. Happy with either ZSJ or Narita winning the TV title, and especially happy to see Zack get a singles match at WK.
Overall this was a great show, and now we're on the road to the Dome. My only complaint is that I just realized Historic X-Over is a PPV, but hey, it's shaping up to be a fun showcase event.

Shooter has taken The Death Rider as his own and can pull it off in a blink of an eye

Looks like Cobb's had to pull out of the Tag League due to injury, Henare will fill in. That’s weird because he’s still advertised as part of Great Muta’s last New Japan match at Historic X-over

Roughneck seems more suited for the nickname of a Gaijin Hoss
