G1 Climax 32 Night 18- card order, preview 【G132】 | NEW JAPAN PRO-WRESTLING

5 comments

1. Excited for the finales to C & D Block! Ospreay vs Juice should be good, and I can see either guy winning, though regardless, I expect Shingo to take the Block (him vs ELP could be a show-stealer on the final night).

   I **assume** Goto loses to EVIL unfortunately and we get Naito into the C Block winning slot, which I’m OKAY with, though not excited for the prospect of the most likely finals.

   Tama beating Jay makes the most sense from a storyline/booking standpoint. Tama is still seeking revenge and having lost the NEVER belt in his first defense, I feel like him beating Jay and ruining The Champ’s perfect tournament, and then challenging for the IWGP belt in the Fall just makes a heck of a lot of sense.

   Okada beats Archer lol.

   Okada vs Naito are my finals and I’m praying we get Naito beating Okada and heading to a Tokyo Dome Main Event against King Switch.

   *excited to see if they have any surprises or big angles planned for the finals as they have had in years past*

2. The order of the matches feels weird to me, feel like you’d build to the matches that mean something rather than match 5/7 mean nothing for the outcome. Gives me hope Zsj is beating Naito before the interval so everyone can recover.

3. Whys the semi main between two eliminated guys? D Block is decided in the first two matches and the main drama of the show to see if the 7 way tie happens is gone in the first 30 minutes? Why is the undefeated world champion not last in a winner take all? Okada and Archer last sucks. Everyone knows who’s going over. At least White and Tama has some drama and White could still win. Tf is this?

4. Odd card order – expected something more along the lines of:

   Ishii vs SANADA

   Fale vs JONAH

   EVIL vs Goto

   Shingo vs ELP

   Ospreay vs Juice

   Okada vs Archer

   Jay vs Tama

   ZSJ vs Naito

5. Archer might get his 1st win against Okada

   I KNOW Fale been waiting on Jonah all G1, Fale Over

   TAMA!!!!

   ZSJ

   I guess Shingo since it won’t be Yujiro…… COWARDS!!!
