1. Wait, Liger gave the awards? Like cool, but why? That’s so random.

2. i love that now Ricky will have it on him that he is straining NJ/AEW relations lol

3. Wait did the president of New Japan actually comment on this? That’s neat.

4. RICKYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

5. I smell something brewing for the USA All Star Junior show.

6. Ricky doing a bit of time as a heel in nj would be amazing

7. I find it hilarious Liger flew all the way over, put on the full gear, not just the mask (like he does on commentary), only to be on screen for two seconds and have a guy yoink the trophy and walk backstage immediately.

8. I know Liger is very humble and modest I wonder if he didn’t really want any extra recognition so he came up with this angle? I remember his retirement shows he was very modest and didn’t want attention taken from others. In this case Owen Hart.

9. wait liger did appear? i heard them say on the show he was gonna appear and didn’t see him at all

10. Great moment. Helps if you know who Liger is and why it matters, but it was a great moment. I hope they follow up strong this coming week.

11. He didn’t have to be that disrespectful!! Especially to a legend!

12. Not the first time Liger has been disrespected while presenting the award for a tournament lol. Just ask ELP.

13. We didn’t see this at all on TV. I believe Friday was when during the women’s match they lost satellite

14. I can’t believe he came all the way from Japan, suit and everything, to appear on the show for less then a minute!

    I was at the show, and was excited to see Jushin Liger (I don’t get to see much NJPW in Calgary live). When Ricky power walked up there and ripped the trophy out of Liger’s hands, I was in shock.

    Someone must beat this man as revenge! For both Liger and me.

15. I know it’s just story, but I legit felt so bad for Liger

16. Starks’ heel turn makes his feud with Hobbs useless.

17. Tony Khan keeps it up and the Forbidden Door will soon be closed again.

18. This was so hilarious, though.

19. Brainbust starks on the trophy

20. If Starks goes to Japan to settle this and it means his shitty whiny entitled promos, mediocre wrestling, receding hairline and ugly AF face are off my TV for a few weeks then….YES
