Cesaro v Diego

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.

diusmr8a504cvk

Awesome sauce!

grames_bond

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!

the groutch

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

QikBax

He does house show runs every few months.

CastorTroy

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

A Rogue Hobo

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

Lord TSC

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

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.

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.

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.

veganrun

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.

Tugboats

I thought this was about Bam Bam:o

Bounty Hunter

Imagine if Kofi won :eek:

Agent Coulson

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

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

seandotcomm

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

diusmr8a504cvk

Post that over on the PW Memes Thread!

Is is it 10.30 tomorrow morning or sunday

SmilesInMass

Finally got round to getting my free month of the network for this, really looking forward to it. The reception Prince, sorry Finn gets in the Sumo Hall will be something else!!

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.

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.

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?

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?

gimmick

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

Ageyev

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

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!

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!

paulie21

Jericho finally not putting someone over. Great match

gimmick

Excellent start.

Tugboats

Neville losing:o

Whosthis

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

paulie21

Getting the Brock match early

Insect Overlord

That didn't last long!

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:

Whosthis

Is Balor up next?

ricero

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

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.

paulie21

Wow thought this would go on last
