WOW! Block A is insane. Block B looks great as well, really surprised by Ibushi, he should be really great.

Wow is right, Block A is stacked to the heavens. Devitt goes in hot, but Tanahashi and Okada are still at the top of the mountain. Then you've got crazy strong style wrestlers like Shibata, Ishii, and Goto. Damn. It'll be interesting to see how Devitt fairs against some of those monsters, and maybe more interesting to see who emerges from Block B. Does Minoru maintain, or does Nakamura get back into the main event after dropping the IC title? I don't see Anderson heading to the finals since Devitt is the clear leader of Bullet Club, so that really only leaves Naito if they want to make his return a main event thing. I guess we know why Ibushi was left out of the BoSJs, too.

NJPW keeps it up with another amazing announcement. They are on fire this year, and I can't get sick of watching anything NJPW.

Here is a link to spoilers from NOAH, NJPW, and DDT all from 7/7. What a day in Japan for a wrestling fan.

Another awesome event by NJPW. While behind Dominion, there was still some great match ups. I actually liked the two matches invovling Laughter 7 and thought the differing styles worked well back-to-back. The main event came across as there will be more between those two in the future. I wouldn't be suprised if Devitt came away with the G1, allowing him to lose the Jr. heavyweight title while still having a heavyweight title shot in the bag.

If there is only ONE company to watch, it would have to be NJPW.
