Generations Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Omega/Ishii and Ibushi/Naito both look crazy. I watched the whole show up to the Omega match and then I wasn't really paying full attention because I was busy doing other things...so I turned it off. I need to devote full attention to both those matches. I'll watch em later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGION Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Soooo....Anybody else got Ibushi/White for the finals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Crossface Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I have Ibushi/Okada, but after Omega beat Naito on Day 1 that prediction's looking rather shaky atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Soooo....Anybody else got Ibushi/White for the finals? I had Naito/White but now I think White isnn't making it to the finals. For me there have been 4 five star matches so far in the tournament. Ishii vs Goto, Ishii vs Ibushi, Ishii vs Omega and Naito vs Ibushi. So yeah, my MVP for the tourney is Ishii. Can't remember ever watching a show with 2 five star matches back to back, so awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil' Kazu Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 So from Block A it's down to Jay White (my original pick), Okada and Tanahashi. For Jay White to win he would have to beat EVIL and hope Okada beats Tanahashi, however that would mean Okada would be eliminated before his match and I kinda don't see that happening. Okada needs to win and hope that Jay White loses to go to the finals and Tanahashi only needs a draw to win the group. On Block B it's down to Naito (my original pick), Omega and Ibushi. Naito needs either a draw and an Ibushi win or a win and a draw/Ibushi win in the main. But again, I think Naito might be losing to Zack because otherwise Ibushi would be eliminated before his match starts. Omega only needs a draw if Naito doesn't win and a win otherwise and Ibushi needs Naito to lose and beat Kenny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGPLX. Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 Thought Okada/Tanahashi was underwhelming tbh, seemed to end just as things were heating up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 I thought it was excellent. Go Ace! If any of the BCOG members interfere in B block matches tomorrow they'll be fined and suspended for 3 months! Good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St★rstruck Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 My God, Ibushi vs. Omega was nuts. Didn't expect anything less, tbh...but holy shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 It was and I actually feel it could've been way nuttier, there was still quite a bit of stuff they didn't do. The way the match was I have a feeling we'll see a rematch... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fight Me. Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 Yeah, I felt they held back too for a rematch on a bigger stage. Ibushi is definitely taking it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St★rstruck Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 I had the same feeling as well, because I feel like we'll see them fight at WK. Personally, I'd say Ishii vs. Omega is the best match so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 Yeah, I felt they held back too for a rematch on a bigger stage. Ibushi is definitely taking it tomorrow. I could see it going either way, because even if Tana wins we'll see Ibushi vs Kenny for the belt. Personally, I'd say Ishii vs. Omega is the best match so far. That's probably my fav too. Goto/Ishii, Ishii/Ibushi, Ishii/Omega, Naito/Ibushi and Omega/Ibushi were my Top 5 in no particular order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeb ★ Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Damn... Wtf is Okada gonna do at the Dome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niffan Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 He will be working a fall program with Jay White I think. At the dome I see him being in some sort of title match. It all depends upon whether or not Naito is through with Jericho. Okada vs Jericho is a possibility if so. Or a non title Tanahashi rematch.

Lil' Kazu Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 What a final match. My fav match of the G1 and at least 2nd fav match of the year. I got emotional af by the time it was over. What a moment, what a setting, what a great atmosphere. This is what pro wrestling is all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil' Kazu Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 He could've signed and still not won it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
