I did re-read the newswire, and it indeed claimed there will be another major name besides Finlay. Since I doubt somehow they are referring to Storm, who's just recently been on the last iPPV, I really wonder who that name in question might be. Kenny Omega definitely is the first name that I thought of, taking into account the show will be in Toronto.
Regardless of who it ends up being, I sure as hell hope, he gets to face Elgin, that guy needs some more big wins!

Elgin will face Cole and i have a feeling it might be Strom since he has yet to be offically named on the card yet. Although i hope i'm wrong about that as more big names added to the card is more then welcome! Since i am sitting front row and all :)

Don't get your hopes up with Kenny Omega. If he is there, that would be incredible. But I'm not expecting it at all. Maybe Edge will stop by? Heard his contract with Vince expires at the beginning of May.

Gotta rewatch but I know he doesn't really have plans for doing much outside Japan

Mmmmm Japanese Woman i'd stay too! J/K

Seriously though it's not just ROH Omega left behind he was also a pretty big deal in PWG. To bad if he would have stuck around i have no doubt in my mind he would have won the ROH world title at some point.

In his AOW Podcast he basically said he(Omega) doesen't want booked anywhere but Japan. He even went as far as to say DO NOT contact me for bookings. So even though that was a few months ago I doubt he's coming back.

Well Omega is AJP Jr. Heavyweight Champion so he works dates for both DDT and AJP.

Plus, be sure to see some crazy Benjamin ladder spots, you know they have to do it to make the match at least a bit interesting.
The match I'm not happy with, is the Eddie/Rhino Match, such a waste of talent IMO, why Rhino should be in such a high caliber match is beyond me!
Do they, though? A cage would be a more fitting blow-off.

I think the Eddie/Rhino match could be interesting, fresh. Briscoes vs WGGT for the 80th time? Not so much. Please do something to make this the last Briscoes vs WGGT match! The match had better live up to expectations for the feud to mean something!!!
