Would be a shock if AJ won considering its been a long time since their main champion and/or an American won.

Think Bad Luck Fale might be a bigger curveball to win. They've been slowly pushing him as a new star.

I liked the transition into the tombstone piledriver too. Fucking Okada man. So smooth.

ACtually think the Shibata/Nakamura match was even better. Just a great, hard hitting slugfest.

Shibata gave me the vibe that he could probably legit fuck up anyone he chooses to.

hb2k	07-23-2014 01:34 PM

Shibata is tremendous. I predicted a Nakamura/Shibata final last year and was totally wrong, so glad to see they did it this year.

But yeh, Nakamura/Styles final, Shinsuke wins, AJ loses the title back to Okada, Nakamura Vs. Okada at WrestleKingdom is the way to go.

I would love a Shibata or Ishii surprise victory too...

Wait so the last American to win this was Vader in 1989? No way styles wins.

Round Robin Style with two blocks. Two points for a win, one point for draw, none for a loss. After they wrestle their block, the winners of the two blocks face each other. Two man sack race held on consecutive Sundays in case of a draw.

XL	07-23-2014 06:58 PM

How long does it go for? Does each guy face every guy in the block once or twice?

Emperor Smeat

07-23-2014 07:05 PM

Recent ones have been around 2 weeks. This year's is around 3 weeks probably because of the injuries from last year and more wrestlers being involved.

For those of you who may not want to watch every match on every show, the ones I'd recommend thus far are:

Day 1:
*Hiroshi Tanahashi Vs. Tomoaki Honma
*Shinsuke Nakamura Vs. Katsuyori Shibata
*AJ Styles Vs. Kazuchika Okada

Day 2:
*Tomohiro Ishii Vs. Satoshi Kojima
*Yuji Nagata Vs. Tomoaki Honma

Honma is outstanding in this tournament, poor bastard having no points makes he sad for how hard he is working every night.

I'm somehow a mark for Nakamura and I haven't even seen too many of his matches. I hear that he is likely the favorite to win this whole thing. The idea of Nakamura defeating Styles in the finals, Okada defeating Styles for the IWGP Title and then Nakamura facing Okada for it seems like a fairly logical way to go.

I liked the idea they went with at Wrestle Kingdom earlier this year when they put their IC Title on Hiroshi Tanahashi. It'd kind of be like if the WWE gave John Cena an IC Title run. Would love to see the WWE do this and have a guy like Cesaro win it off him.

Only seen a couple of matches so far but they were great. Tournament seems really good this year as well.

Some of those kicks Suzuki did to AJ Styles both looked and sounded brutal.

Just watched the Suzuki/Styles match.

Holy SHIT what a match.

Honma Vs. Shibata may be my favourite match of the tournament so far. I love Shibata, but I so badly wanted to see Honma win that match, it was just a work of art.

Stayed away from this thread over the weekend because I didn't want to spoil any results for myself. Nakamura/Ishii, Honma/Shibata, Styles/Suzuki and Tanahashi/Ishii is all must see stuff. This tournament is fucking incredible. I like that there is less parity in this years G1, last year they went a little overboard keeping everybody even and I didn't like that - the World Champion shouldn't have the same number of points as Yujiro Fucking Takahashi.

Day 9 was good, though a slight step back from the utter greatness of the prior two days. Davey Boy and Honma seemed to have problems clicking at points. Goto and Okada have their formula down pat, and it always works. Surprised Okada got the win.

So it basically comes down to Tanahashi and Nakamura (for the love of God please not Fale) in Block A then Okada and AJ in Block B.

I think Nakamura/Okada might be too big of a match for the Finals and not at the Tokyo Dome, so I can see Tanahashi vs. Okada in the Finals and AJ/Nakamura for 3rd place.
