Hmm the first show for me doesn’t really look anything special, I mean since when was Jamal a draw in the WWE let alone Japan? I don’t think the guy is anything special nor do I think that he should be in the ring with Mutoh.

Whilst from the Second show I quite like the idea of seeing this TAKA Michinoku, Taiyo Kea, & Jamal defeated Keiji Mutoh, Arashi, & Gran Hamada, That should be one phenomenal match, Shame Jamal is in it though.

Thoughts?
