How hilarious would it be for Bruiser to pin Goto for the NEVER belt?

Recent TV taping spoilers below
Spoiler: show
Part of me is worried that Bruiser is taking Silas' spot and he's not under contract right now. Bruiser being on these as a solo act is very random, and Silas did lose the title pretty quickly.
Fine looking shows though. Chase teaming with GL is curious. Really looking forward to Ospreay/Takahashi/Flip, and Dalton v Beretta. The three way should be nuts as I'm guessing they want to get Flip over for Best of the Super Juniors this year.

Night one feels like a total waste of time. I'm pretty disappointed with these cards. It feels like a 3/4 strength ROH roster and a 1/4 strength New Japan roster got together to put on a card. Where are Okada, Naito, Ospreay, EVIL, Briscoes, Silas, Kenny King, Elgin, Roppongi 3K, Suzuki etc.? Where is KUSHIDA for night 2? Lethal is being totally wasted in these pointless undercard matches.

That being said, Dalton vs. Trent could be really awesome if they don't kill it with comedy.

I wonder if we should read anything into The Bucks facing a New Japan heavyweight tag team on night 1?
