Makabe scrapes through with a top 10 finish, as we are down to 8 competitors. Reigning Champ, mike adamle, still has both wrestlers alive in Shingo Takagi and Kanemaru and both will be competing in BOSJ. Kanemaru is sure to lose a lot, but Shingo has a legit shot at going undefeated. Can fallen NPC SHO finally be the one to stop him?
El Desperado (Savio) and Marty Scurll (Arrogance) will also be there for BOSJ, and they are both not making it out of there alive. Condolences.
Jay Briscoe (RP) is unlikely to be returning to New Japan and will likely be doing all of his future matches against G.o.D on RoH shitshows.
Liger (Vito) is currently angling to get himself murdered by Minoru Suzuki. The big question is "when"? Though it's probably going to be the Super Jr finals or Dominion a few days later.
Kojima (Ultra Mantis) is an outside bet, he needs to show up on the Super Juniors tour to stay in the game, and if he does he will then either enter the G1 (where he will lose a lot) or potentially carry on working opening tags. Very likely he gets timed out though.
Jeff Cobb (DaveWadding) is a good candidate for at the very least a podium finish, assuming he doesn't fall to Taichi there is a good chance he defends his NEVER title at Dominion, and heads into the G1, where... It would seem this is Okada's (Smeat) game to win, unless something completely unexpected happens with SANADA it would seem he has a clear run to the G1.
Keep a close eye on Shingo, Cobb and Okada. The rest of us are worm food.
Or so it would seem.
