Surprised Cima isn't in this after last year's showing.

Shooter is so obviously winning that. I'm thinking we'll see Dangerous Tekkers explode in the finals. |

A lot of potential matches coming out of a tournament known for upsets. Tana being out of it makes sense with him just getting a shot, but also he may take the time to get new falsies put in.
I envisioned them saving Naito/ELP for the G1, so getting it right off the bat is a nice surprise. Aussie Open being back and getting into the mix with CHAOS seems to hint at a tag title shot in GNs near future. Henare finally gets his singles rematch against Shingo, and has been angling for a NEVER shot since before Wrestle Kingdom, so his fate is finally in his own hands.

How'd Chase Owens wind up with a bye slot?
Surprised after beating White that Hikuleo isn't in either.

Quietly announced for the Anniversary Show on 3/6 - Lio/YOH vs. Hiromu/BUSHI. Should be a fun match, but that confirms no IWGP World vs. IWGP Jr. champion match, which is usually a feature of the event.

There's some notable omissions of guys who should be in it; Hikuleo, Robinson, Lawlor and Rosser to name some.

It's part of why I'm happy he's finally one of the top Juniors. He earned it, and he seems to be willing to try to make people look great still. |

Gleat's second representative. Minoru Tanaka is a guy who hasn't aged in either looks or skill. |

Tanahashi apparently lost his front teeth replacements eating a protein bar. TIL that Tanahashi hasn't had real front teeth in over a decade Nope, Okada dropkicked his teeth right out of his mouth in their first match. |
