Yup.

I hope they bring the Tag titles to the Impact Zone.

Is there anyone in Zero-1 that is a credible challenger for Yuji Nagata anymore? He's now beaten Tanaka twice and Kohei Sato. I can't think of anyone else they could build up to beat him.

Yup.

I think they will. TNA acknowledged Kurt Angle's run with the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, didn't they? Have a got the Japanese World Title Angle held right?

Anyway, I cannot see TNA not advertising this a little, and having Team 3D come out with the belts. I'd actually love to see a little tease of a program between Team 3D and The Motor City Machine Guns, also with their belts.

Well, damn Bubba-Ray and D-Von just keep on adding to their legacy, don't they.

Ugh??!?!?! Seriously? Tanahashi is fucking amazing, and probably would have had the best year of anyone last year if he hadn't got injured.

lol yeah, was aout to say the same thing about the tanahashi comment.

Also, dunno about this card. Seemed amazing on paper, but almost every match looks way too short.

What Would Kevin Do?

Well, 4 of the matches are up, including the main event, and the NOAH vs NJPW tag match.

Yea. Seriously. I recognize the fact that Tanahashi is a great worker and all, I just can't bring myself to really like him that much. Don't know what it is, I just can't.

Well, technically they only have one, but I expect to see Pro Wrestling NOAH's championships showcased.

But does NOAH really want TNA's garabage production values making their titles look like shit?

They did put two sets of tag team titles on their guys, so I'd say they're pretty keen for the exposure.

Well any publicity is good publicity, I guess.

Unless you're working with TNA, I guess.
