For those who’ll be staying up to watch the event, feel free to use this as your discussion thread. Let us know what you’re looking forward to! As usual I’ll have spoilers up some time tomorrow for those who can’t watch.
So… I just read the Nemeth brothers appeared during a tag match sitting ringside… I’m all in on a Dolph Ziggler/The Nemeth Brothers run as a tag team in Japan. Dolph/Nick has never had any run outside WWE or its development territories, and I’m very interested in this.
Watched it (and uploaded clips above), Nick is def doing something in NJPW. Ryan may just be in his corner cause brothers look after brothers, but we’ll see.
Finlay got right in Nics Face after his bout. So I’ll guess we see at least Nic Nemeth pretty soon in the ring.
Oooh I’d be down for that…
Just started (saved it for last after AEW and Stardom), but this gonna be a good show and nothing was spoiled for me yet but Nemeth’s appearance! lol
I tried posting via feddit.de this morning the comment never federated over to kbin.
This is what I tried to send to kbin:
The joy of living in Germany. It’s 07:27 am and Wrestle Kingdom 18 will start soon. Feels good not to get up in the middle of the night to watxh wrestling.Yeah ernest is still working on things. kbin is working much better since yesterday but things are still a bit flakey.
A nice advantage tho!
