a new joint ppv in japan means omega gets to use final fantasy music. i'm thinking the rebirth remix of j-e-n-o-v-a or the listen to the cries of the planet. :^
I love Red Shoes never taking shit, fuck your chair Mox lmao.
And the winner of Toni Storm vs Mina Shirakawa is...

Mariah May!
Taz proud of his boy!
*watches mina, toni and mariah post match*

...ok I got like...8 different potential titles for this clip when I post it later and I think I know which one to choose.
Mina with the new gear, loving it.
Two PPV in a row the TBS title got higher billing than the AEW Women's World Championship. With Baker back into a program with Mone I assume this is gonna continue into future event as well. I feel this devalue Storm's really iconic reign if the new hot star just swoop in, get the secondary title and just get billed bigger than the world champ.
Okada when Tana enters the ring: "Eh I've fought you enough before I'm out."
Goddamn, production nailed the coin drop sound effect this time!
orange cassidy should come out to shakira's whenever, wherever
Kayfabe question of the day: What does it mean when Orange Cassidy changes his theme song back?
Yay JR's here!
That sad hidden blade at the end chef's kiss
Don has been saying it for months! This Ospreay kid is too soft
yakko, wakko, dot.... and toni. just for fun they run around the warner lot
toni storm: nothing but respect for my queen
Naito looking like Dante from Devil May Cry

Mox looking like he's going to do F1 racing
OK, night 2 of Wrestle Kingdom being a big cross promotional show is pretty rad
That ladder match was bonkers! It never wasn't going to not be, but still it was bonkers!
Not having Wild Thing for Moxley was a loss for the crowd.
Britt might be the only woman who can upstage Mone effectively
I want more Vaquer, Mone should just go full heel but I guess being a delusional babyface kind of fits with the Elite as well
tanahashi 🤝 lesbians
🥲Takeshita is gonna be a star
😂😂😂 Jack probably shouldn't have pissed everybody off last night
LOL beat him with his own worst move!
Big Bill chokeslam on Joe, oh my Black Phillip
Big Bill is such a dork to start wearing trunks because of Jericho
Also I guess enjoying that match makes me a certified sicko
I get why OC was on edge. He can't counter wrestle someone as good as ZSJ.
Damn OC went back to the dark denim and Pixies really quick
Poor OC, even his intro video is fading to black
😭😭😭 Nigel speaks for me
Nigel is going to need the rest of the night off after that lol
Poor Mariah has to witness all this violence
The human souffle machine lol
That match FUCKS
Had a thought... What if Danielson's final match at All In is against Nigel?
Nigel sounds so concerned for Danielson, he should retire him for his own good
Bryan could be dying and I'd be sitting here saying, "This dude needs to quit faking injuries in his matches" lol
Decent match, I need more Okada on my TV
Well Okada and Tanahasi are done for the night, black Phillip that was rough

edit: well they're up and wrestling again so that's good lol
Matt Jackson smashing the air guitar! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Okada never fails to make me laugh my ass off with his antics
They're harmonizing!
Tanahasi playing the air guitar to Caster's rap lol
SCISSOR ME DADDY ACE!
Okada just calls everyone bitch and somehow gets cheered even harder
Only 15 minutes, maybe we won't be exhausted by the end of the night
Clearly MJF learned some things from Cole.
That's gimmick infringement!
So it looks like, now that the shows are on Triller in the US, you can VPN to another country to make the order and then play the show off VPN.

... Or so I heard.
That's a good match to close the zero hour!
Mina out here stirring up shit lol
Always love a good "yay! boo!"
HoB winning is a good start to the night!
Oh shit, bonus match!
This show is too long and kind of boring at times.

Source: I'm there live.

The gimmick doesn't work since the results are too predictable.

There have been chants for where's the blood during the Mox match.
