    I'd replace Diego with anyone else on the roster, maybe even Kofi. I'd also replace Kofi with someone with a bit more star power, can't really think of anybody off the top of my head but maybe Orton seeing as they're not going to ever do a programme with them it seems.

    Ah I thought it was on at 09:30am
    Woo extra hour lie in!

    REALLY looking forward to Finn vs Owens - think they are going to absolutely steal the show!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    Y2J coming back for another run, or just doing the one show?

    He does house show runs every few months.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,309 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    So the main event is basically a squash match while the NXT title match will, at most, be second to the main event?


  • Registered Users Posts: 838 ✭✭✭A Rogue Hobo


    Are they airing all of those matches or just some of them?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,605 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Actually wish they would do these type of crazy shows more often.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Really looking forward to this.

    Actually really want to see Brock and Lodi cause it's just going to be Brock against new day which I think it's going to be lots of fun

    Thats a seriously fun "house show" card. Probably throw in a Cena Owens promo and Heyman New Day promo too. Not sure why anybody would have a problem with that show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭bur


    Any chance we get a Cena interference, costing Owens the title even?

    I hope Cena stays away from Owens and his match here. If Owens is to lose Balor should go over strong. There should be no interference and the match at least for the duration of this show should be portrayed as Owens' sole focus.

    He can be made look strong again by bayting lumps out of Cena and taking his belt next time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    This is one of the few times when those on the other side of the pond have to watch wrestling at a worse time than we do.

    Anyways I really hope Finn wins and gets put over strong. Logically it makes sense to do it, but this is WWE so I'm taking nothing for granted.

    Apparently the plan is to do four shows a year. Brock Lesnar has Suplex City shirts with London and Sydney on them in the WWE online shop.

    Lesnar v Kofi seems like an odd pairing, do they have history in Japan or something?

    Don't think so.

    Think it's simply that New Day are a fun heel team that Brock can mow through but still have a bit of a laugh with. Would imagine the match wil have a tonne of interference and hi jinks.

    Balor vs Jericho getting great reviews from the Tokyo show today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,041 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Is this a once off live broadcast on the network or will it be immediately archived?

    I want to watch it, but I'm heading out tonight and a 10:30 start is unrealistic tomorrow.

    Pretty sure you can watch it on demand after. Also reply to my post on the "Embarassing Irish Sporting Moments" thread ;)

    Thought I'd modify this Wrestling memes gem for the Irish audience

    Balor vs Jericho getting great reviews from the Tokyo show today.

    From the pictures I've seen on Twitter the attendance at the show didn't look strong at all.

    Lesnar will help shift a few more tickets as will the next one being the featured show that's gotten some kind of build.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,166 ✭✭✭Stereomaniac


    I'm not going to get to watch this until tomorrow night because I'm working until 9 tomorrow, but man I can't wait to see Finn Balor vs. Kevin Owens. It's been a long time coming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Are they really still going ahead with Brock Kofi? Surely they'll be an angle to take him out and surprise opponent? Like Ryback?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    Who'd have thought 5 or 6 years ago that WWE would be live broadcasting a show from Japan, where the main event would be (face) Brock Lesnar VS (heel) Kofi Kingston and that Fergal Devitt and Kevin Steen would be fighting for the developmental title?

    Surprised to hear Cole mention other Japanese promotions and both Jericho and Nevilles former lives.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Ageyev


    No shakey cam, no red and blue crowd lighting, no boom camera, no LEDs. Aesthetically this show broadcast gets a thumbs up already


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,132 ✭✭✭Andy_rse


    I have a weird thing about audio and this has perfect audio. The mix between hearing the wrestlers in the ring and the crowd is great!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    Good match thus far!

    Cole read out a tweet from 'someone in England saying finally Americans have to get up early"

    That was my tweet you arsehole!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,183 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Jericho finally not putting someone over. Great match

    Neville losing:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,342 ✭✭✭Whosthis


    I just don't get this match. Hoping for a crazy Kofi spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,183 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Getting the Brock match early


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,916 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    That didn't last long!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,905 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    That wasn't even fun I was hoping it would be some sort of comedy match as no one expected Kofi to win.


    But I guess it keeps with him being the "Beast"



    At least Owens vs Balor gets the main event spot.:(:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,342 ✭✭✭Whosthis


    Is Balor up next?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Is it balor v Owens now ? Thought it would of been the main event.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,494 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Why on earth is Owens vs. Balor not the main event?! There's absolutely no reason not to have that as the last match, Japan doesn't give two shîts about Cena compared to Devitt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,183 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Wow thought this would go on last
