1. They gotta do something to make this possible for every show.

   Even if you ran half capacity for every building it would probably sell more tickets in the long run.

2. there will never ever be another hiroshi tanahashi

3. Man of heart and soul

4. NJPW being wholesome af today is JUST what I needed after a few days of AEW being so chaotic.

5. Its ridiculous that it was ever prohibited let alone that it took 2 and a half years for christs sake.

6. “*crying*” got me

7. And that’s why Tanahashi will always be the ace.

8. Tana is the best

9. It was awesome to hear the voice of the fans again, but it will suck to go back to clap crowds soon.

   The Japanese government must get their shit together and lift those bullshit restrictions, it’s embarrassing at this point.

10. Man Tana isn’t a gimmick.

11. Ace had to fly like 15 hours to get cheers. Feel the worst for Naito who didn’t do any of the US bookings the past few years so didn’t get the cheers like his colleagues had.

12. I’m really out of the loop with the situation in Japan- is Covid still a real issue there?

    Not saying its a good thing but here in the UK all restrictions are gone and nobody is taking any precautions at all.

13. Are there any highlights of the first real pop since the return? I’d love to hear that

14. Two and a half years!! Gotta give it to the Japanese fans🤍
    Couldn’t have pulled off something like that in the states.

15. I must have gotten something in my eye reading this 😭

16. For the love of god, end Karl Anderson’s bullshit title reign in September and give Tana another belt.

    Nothing is more thrilling in New Japan than this legend winning title matches, especially at this stage of his career.
