So is it a bad thing that they're spreading out their title matches to NJPW World House Shows, or is it a good thing that the NEVER Title is main eventing a small show instead of being semi-main for the IC Title?

I like that the NEVER belt is actually headlining a show. Ishii's made that belt relatively important so it will be good to see it getting a lot of time as the main event of a show. Having the NEVER belt headline smaller shows is much better than the tag matches that usually headline them anyway.

I think it is a good thing as well, it adds importance to the belt and gives us NJPW World subscribers a reason to watch house shows. It's also a good way to get fans to come to the show, who doesn't love a main event title match?

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Tiger Mask vs. Sho Tanaka
2. Máscara Dorada & Yohei Komatsu vs. Rocky Romero & Barreta
3. Yuji Nagata & Ryusuke Taguchi vs. Manabu Nakanishi & Captain New Japan

What does everyone think of this show? It goes down tomorrow morning live on NJPW World and while I probably won't be up to watch it I will get caught up later in the day. I think Naito/Homma vs Anderson/Gallows & Okada/Gedo vs Fale/Tonga will be good but I am truly excited to see how young Sho Tanaka does with a veteran as an opponent in Tiger Mask. The main event will be pretty good as per usual, just hope they get a decent amount of time.

It looks like a solid mid-tour show. It builds towards the tour finale, which is it's purpose. Having said hat, Tanaka/TM IV will be interesting and I'm looking forward to Okada/Gedo vs. Fale /Tonga. Interesting to see a 10 man tag as the main too, I can't recall that many in NJ in the recent past

Makabe/Ishii was great, but it was all because of Ishii. He's a carryjob machine. Makabe should just change his style, he's not a very capable brawler and it shows against guys like Ishii.

Why the fuck is he the champ again? Smh...

The Makabe-Ishii match got really good by the end, one that built quite nicely. I don't enjoy watching Makabe at all though, definitely a poor man's Ishii. I quite liked the opener and the Liger title match too. Never seen Steve Anthony before so was surprised at how good he was. Overall it was a pretty good show especially considering Dontaku is only a few days away.
