Thoughts on the G1 Supercard?

By Scott Keith on 29 March 2019



With the card out, what are your thoughts? https://www.njpw1972.com/tornament/44155?showCards=1

Looks like an amazing card to me and I think the opener (Cobb/Ospreay) could be a show-stealer. ZSJ/Tanahasi and Naito/Ibushi should be awesome. I like Jay White more than others, so I'm on board with the main event.

Only downside to me is the RoH-only matches, which seem pretty meh. I think NJPW would be better off running shows solo in the US now, or figuring out a way to work with AEW instead. 
Yeah, ROH isn’t bringing much to the table there.  Nothing against Taven or Lethal but if they’re following Ibushi vs Naito they’re DEAD.  I’m pretty pumped about that match and I think White vs Okada might be five stars because they’re gonna MAKE IT be five stars in MSG.  But yeah, NJ should just do a solo show tour and make nice with the Elite again.
