I think its the wrong booking decision, but I thought it was wrong to not drop it to Suzuki almost a year ago. They proved me wrong then, let us see the next few months and see what the plan is.

The ace should always go over at WK. The question was wether the ace is naito or okada and clearly the answer is okada. Either answer would've worked though

That is true. I just felt that the better book was Naito being the ace. Gedo clearly has a plan, I'm not going to question the madman in anything other than the tag team division, where he has been very lackluster this past year in booking.

He more or less said that naito fans may be upset as well as fans of other factions because he cant be beat but at the end of the day he wants everyone to be happy and enjoy the show.

At the risk of sounding negative about the NJPW product, while I may be being extremely unfair by comparing it to last year's so which was beyond exceptional I found WK12 to be "good but flawed".
Some of the matches felt either overbooked or clumsy in execution. Still miles better than anything WWE has put out in years but hardly their best effort to date.
>Bucks vs R3K
Fine, no problems with this one as an opener. I'm as sick as anyone of the Bucks at this point but it woun't hurt R3K at all
>NEVER 6 man
Pure filler and why the fuck is Sabre Junior wasting his time with those other two losers?
>Kota vs Cody
Great match fucked up by ROH's decision not to keep the belt on Cody. Had it had higher stakes I'd have called this match of the night.
>IWGP Tag
Again a really good match that got over the strengths of the wrestlers. Still not entirely convinced by EVIL but that's a personal issue.
>Goto vs Suzuki
This one was a lot more restrained than i thought it would be but then I considered Goto's match with Shibata last year to be one of the matches of the night so obviously my expectations were unreasonably high. I think the winner was wrong as I feel Goto needs to move away from the NEVER scene and up the card.
>IWGP Junior 4 way
This was overbooked as fug. It really only needed to be Osprey vs Skurll as it was the real story of this match and the hiromu/ KUSHIDA thing has long run it's course imho.
>Old man Tana vs Edgelord literally who?
I've never cared less about the IWGP IC title as I have in the hands of Tanahashi. He was gassed after a few minutes and really really needs to rest. Jay was fine I suppose, but I've barely heard of the bloke and fail to see what warrants him being here other than "Well we need to have Tana SOMEWHERE"
>Jericho vs Omega
Could never live up to the hype and honestly didn't. Jericho showed his age in trying to wrestle at Kenny's pace. Also what the fuck was up with Kenny's entrance gear? Could he please fucking take one match seriously for once rather than going all lolsonerdyXD. Otherwise it was fine, spent too long on the outside at the beginning but it was okay.
>Okada vs Naito
It was a really good match but fuck me what has Okada got on the booking team? This was really the right time for Naito.

He tried to be full serious when he joined the BC and failed completely. He's perfect the way he is right now.

4ab990 No.91949
Biggest negatives about the show for me was the 4 way having too many botches, and the IC title match kinda stinking. I've been saying tanahashi needs to take time off for months now, and this match really showed that to be true. Naito not winning didn't actually bother me that much as it does make sense in terms of long term booking. In this case I think long term booking needed to be put on the backburner to go with the momentum of the fans but at least they're committed to a plan.

I didn't mind botches in the 4 way match. In a match that fast and full of spots that stuff is bound to happen and nothing really stood out to me as terrible.
Tana though, it's a sad state of affairs when I'm actively rooting against him in favor of someone I don't particularly like because I want him to go away for a while.

If suzuki isn't retiring I bet he takes the belt off tana at the next show so he has time to get surgery for the G1. Other than that I really don't know who could challenge him.

I loved this show, even the ic match a bit. I'm just scared Tanahashi might go the way of Angle with his body.
