Don’t see Vince letting him take some of the bumps if he was. That last OWA was brutal.

Jericho has limited contracts so he was NOT under WWE contract for this time.

He comes and goes how he wants, Vince gets courtesy first option on most things like the wrestling cruise.

 

[Sycho Sid]

Really good show overall. Disagree with the finish of the last match, but honestly that is just quibbling.

 

[Falsedawn]

Great show, amazing main event. I think Kenny and Jericho stole the show, but Okada and Naito weren't any worse than the hype warranted. Okada is the damn ace, who not named Kenny Omega can beat this man?

Oh, as an aside, I hope Gedo burns those pants. No idea what Okada was thinking.

 

[Ozymandias]

Fell asleep a little after 6AM.



Just finished the rest of the event. Great show.

I actually thought he was gonna rip them off before the match. Awful

 

[Ozymandias]

Loved Jericho's heel tactics in the match. Him occasionally saying "Kenny!" like the Japanese girls in the crowd was hilarious.

New Years Dash later on!
