Omega at All In

“Will you save me from Chicago O’hare Airport?”

“Sure!”

A collectors item @ Haoming. My crackpot theory re: the age range is that it’s part of the “Kenny is an endangerment to children” angle. I refuse to read the fine print—I don’t want to know the real reason.

Ground floor update from Budokan: the Golden Tension... is mounting.

Me studying simple math so I can calculate points in the G1

Wishing safe and speedy recoveries to the lip and heel of Kenny Omega.

Tentatively overjoyed

I don’t want to jinx anything, but I just received word that I’ll be sitting in “Row-1” at the G-1 next Saturday.

I’m praying to the god of professional wrestling that it’s true:

1. That I will get a front row view for the very first time

2. That I will be physically removed from my seat by an intrepid young lion so a body can be hurled into it

3. That I will not have time to pick up all my belongings on the floor (bag, water bottle, etc.)

4. That the entire scene will be broadcast live on New Japan World

Can I say something about lens flare? 

I love it.

Keep a close eye on the heatwave in Japan that’s being recorded as one of the worst in the country’s history with temperatures in some areas as high as 41.1°C or 106°F (news source). There have been over 60 reported deaths in the past week and over 22, 000 folks taken to hospitals for issues such as heat stroke, causing the country to declare the heatwave a natural disaster. The islands of Honshu (the main island), Kyushu, and Shikoku are the worst affected with high-rising temperatures, while Hokkaido has warm but considerably lower temperatures. The heatwave is expected to last into (and potentially through) August.

What does that mean for New Japan? Well, every stop on this G1 Climax tour from July 26 on is in a city that has a high/dangerous heat advisory (here’s a general map of Japan with temperatures [in celsius] courtesy of meteorologist Miki Motoi). Hopefully air conditioning is used to its fullest extent in each arena for the wrestlers, New Japan staff, and fans, and everyone stays hydrated and takes it easy during matches so not to exert too much energy.

For those of you dealing with heatwaves where you are, please drink lots of water, stay in cool areas indoors if you can, and watch out for others and animals!

This piece nearly brought a tear to my eye. Mr. Schilling captures what makes the Omegaman special in a way I haven’t seen before. A must read!

Since Kenny won the International World Global Planet Heavyweight Title, this blog has been radio silent. Why?

After celebrating with a fine bottle of chilled Aquafina poured on top of my head, I took some time off to reflect on the long, difficult, and inspiring career of Kenneth so far—from challenging Kota Ibushi for the first time in 2008 to forgetting the US Heavyweight Title during last year’s G1 and dropping the most prestigious 45 lb. hunk of gold in sports entertainment after besting Goto just yesterday.

Our champ truly is changing the world :,^)

BULLET CLUB mechanical pencil is on sale!

Finally, some BC merch that speaks to yours truly.

I spy with my little eye something... well-deserved after years of hard work, sheer determination, and being the most entertaining performer in pro wrestling.
