The Wrestling Observer has an update on NJPW and Kenny Omega’s current status with the company after winning the new IWGP United States title at last weekend’s tournament (via WrestlingInc.com). According to the report, the plan is for Omega to defend his newly won title in both NJPW and Ring of Honor in the United States. Additionally, Omega’s first title defense in ROH is slated to take place later in October.

October is an oddly long time away, especially with ROH having a PPV in September.

This year we won't have a World Title match at NJPW's G1 Clímax Finals, instead, ROH World Champ Cody and Hangman Page will challenge War Machine for the IWGP Tag team Titles. Sounds cool.

You're an optimist. I haven't been impressed by either of them in their New Japan performances.

Do you talk about War Machine? I loved his match with Tanzan and Kojima. Then the feud with G.O.D... well, it isn't the best tag team to work with.

Not my favourite wrestlers, but they'll work with a ROH team, so I wanna think they'll feel more comfortable. Plus, Cody's singles matches at NJPW has been all meh and under 10 minutes and Page has been in a tag with Yujiro f'n Takahashi. Do I think this match will be awesome? Nope. Do I expected this match to be something good (*** - ***1/2)? Yes.

I like Yujrio!
As for Cody, I haven't been in love with his matches outside of New Japan, either. Page in a tag team always feels like second banana to me. I think he does much better as a singles guy, and I think Cody's preferred style of annoying stalling and general heel antics does not play to Page's strong suit. Ever since he's been doing that stuff (i.e. ever since he's joined Bullet Club) his matches have been much less exciting than when he was on his own as a babyface or when he was with the Decade (the Jay Briscoe PPV match being the obvious exception).

Really? I thought he looked like a pedophile. Shaggy hair Sinclair is much better.

Todd Sinclair will never look like a bad ass. Fuck me. Why are we talking about Todd Sinclair? Much less his hair? Mark Briscoe didn't get this much discussion when he cut his hair.

What a great weekend to be a wrestling fan. KUSHIDA main events both New Japan on AXS against Hiromu Takahashi (great match from both guys) and Jay White on the weekly ROH show (solid match). I really enjoy watching KUSHIDA and think it was a good move to put the TV title on him. Dude never mails it in.
