Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

Post by DXvsNWO1994 »

Figured I'd get this going since, per a video from Kevin Kelly & Steve Corino on Facebook after Invasion Attack, match announcements will begin this week.

Well, it's that time of year again! Ring of Honor & New Japan Pro-Wrestling collide for four major SuperCards (one PPV, one TV Taping, and two Live Events) in Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, and New York City!!

For those who are wondering, the show in Toronto is indeed a TV Taping. The card can be discussed here, but when it gets closer to the show, I'll post a thread in the Spoilers Section specifically for that show.

Quickly becoming my new favorite stable. Naito has been fucking brilliant in this role.

It was probably a given, but ROH replied to someone on Twitter about the Young Bucks being on this tour, and they said they will be on all 4 shows.

Lost Ingobernables should be a very safe bet on these shows, given they've all worked in the US in the last year (except maybe not BUSHI?) plus with Lethal being a member.

Nobody mind former TNA star SANADA coming?
Much better than YOSHI-TATSU?

There's almost zero chance anyone from Los Ingobernables is on the May tour, unfortunately. Bushi and Sanada especially would be awesome for a fresh dynamic.

I think Naito & EVIL are likely to come, not counting on having Sanada or BUSHI.

They can have Los Ingobernables with Naito, Lethal & EVIL if they want i guess.

Even if we don't see anyone from Los Ingobernables on this May Tour, there are still two more chances for them to possibly show up in ROH this year (August in Las Vegas & September/October in Boston). Knowing that, I wouldn't be too disappointed if they're not on these upcoming shows.

That'd be cool if some of these shows had some sort of theme, like next month, LIJ invades ROH, and then in August, a Super J Cup preview weekend. Something like that.
