Re: G1 Climax 24 Spoilers Thread
who's looking forward to honma/Shibata tomorrow?
i remember they had a match this wrestling observer year. Honma took a brutal beating and gave very little back. it was a great match. fast forward to tomorrow and Honma's probably much hotter and on this big stage, this match should be extremely physical. can't wait!

Re: G1 Climax 24 Spoilers Thread
I'm so excited for Honma and Shibata but I'm even more excited for when Ishii vs. Shibata happens though. The finals are about a week away and I absolutely cannot wait. My guess is Nakamura vs. Styles in the Finals and Tanahashi vs. Okada in the runner up match.

I might put Naito in myself, but it's so competitive this year, who knows!Mr. Orange wrote:I'm so excited for Honma and Shibata but I'm even more excited for when Ishii vs. Shibata happens though.

If I'm booking the Seibu Dome this is what I'm having
Okada vs Nakamura G1 Finals
AJ vs Tanahashi Runner Up
Naito vs Fale IC title (Naito goes over)
Goto/Shibata vs Honma/Ishii
Anderson/Gallows/Takahashi/Tonga vs Nagata/Makabe/Kojima/Tenzan
Cole/Bennett vs CNJ and Liger
reDRagon vs TimeSplitters
Just a basis for the card.

Re: G1 Climax 24 Spoilers Thread
You guys weren't lying about Styles vs Suzuki...that match was incredible! My MOTY for sure up to this point.
I also found Nagata vs Shibata to be particulary awesome.

Re: G1 Climax 24 Spoilers Thread
Day 7 was the best show of the tournament so far, last 4 matches were amazing with Styles/Suzuki being the best singles match of the year!

Re: G1 Climax 24 Spoilers Thread
Day 9 VoW star ratings:
Honma vs. Smith ***1/4
Takahashi vs. Archer **1/2
Nagata vs. Gallows **3/4
Makabe vs. Tenzan ***1/2
Suzuki vs. Naito ****1/2
Fale vs. Shibata **3/4
Nakamura vs. Kojima ****
Styles vs. Anderson ***3/4
Benjamin vs. Tanahashi ***1/2
Okada vs. Goto ****1/2
It's amazing that this is considered a weak show in this tournament. This show happens anywhere else in the world and it's one hell of a show.
Also, Tenzan continues delivering. He's going to end up in the middle of the pack for match quality, ahead of guys like Takahashi, Yano, Fale, Gallows, Benjamin and maybe even Archer and Smith. If you'd have said that before the tournament had started I'd have laughed at you.

I personally don't think Day 8 was anything close to Day 7, but I did like it. I've liked all shows so far. Haven't seen 9 yet.
