Kushida could be solid in NXT/205. He's done a lot of work with ROH. I'd assume his English is probably somewhat decent.

He may as well give it a try. Gedo has nothing for him to do besides be the backup Junior ace when someone gets hurt.

They’re never letting him move up to HW or even challenge for the NEVER title, looks like Osprey already sidestepped him for that spot.

Watched the Violent Giants match. They got going a little bit towards the end, but everybody except for Sekimoto is pretty worn down at this point.

Have you seen any Kai/Kengo matches? They've been the MVPs. Their matches against NEXTREAM and YoshiKen are matches of tournament so far.

Akiyama/Sekimoto also had a good match against Doering/James from what i remember.

Pacing was all bad in the Violent Giants match but there were some nice spots at the end

Last thing I saw before falling asleep was Yoshi in his Spider Man gear :smh:

Still need to go back and check out a lot of the matches...especially the Kengo and KAI stuff
