Stardom randomly uploaded JAN vs Oedo Tai to YouTube. Fun match were Oedo Tai were unveiling a new member after weeks and weeks of teasing that it could be someone from one of the other factions but it ended up being someone from another promotion.
Kagetsu and Hazuki from Oedo Tai are commentating on it for some weird reason.

Just finished NJ BOSJ. Had a feeling Ospreay would beat Takagi. They'd made too much about him being the favourite, and undefeated. Would have preferred Takagi to win. But it was a great match. Looking forward to the show on Sunday.

I can’t believe USA Network are now so rigid in their time keeping that they cut The Undertaker off before he could say his final sentence on RAW, so WWE had to put that one solitary line (‘Rest in peace’) on YouTube.
And then last night, WWE couldn’t even be bothered to pay for pyro for Goldberg’s entrance. Goldberg meanwhile looked blown up before he even stepped in the ring.

BoSJ Final:
I was surprised that Shingo lost but I guess with Takahashi coming back to be the LIJ Junior Ace and him likely stepping up to heavyweight it makes sense
My top 3 matches of the tournament has a theme.
El Phantasmo vs. Will Ospreay
Rocky Romero vs. Will Ospreay
Shingo Takagi vs. Will Ospreay

Apparently it feels like 102 degrees in the Saudi stadium tonight, the announcers in suits, Renee covered up, and they’re visibly sweating already. It’s so hot that they’re positioned beside a big cooling unit at ringside.
WWE flew Natalya and Alexa Bliss over there on an extremely long flight hoping to convince the government they could wrestle a match, and they refused.
The House Of Saud have been put under the hard camera for this one, with more cooling fans to keep them cool, so the normal looking clothed people (by the looks of it actual fans) at least have front row seats for is one.

Rumour going round that Corbin will beat Seth and then Brock will cash in.

I do believe the Arabic announce team just made a jibe at Renee Young, with one saying he thought it would be Renee who would butcher his name rather than Corey Graves.

Seth defeated Corbyn and then Lesnar attempted to cash in but was low blowed by Rollins, who wasted him with a chair.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Brock Lesnar cashes in now against Kofi Kingston later in the night.

I thought the match itself was okay, but those last couple of minutes were diabolical.
A botched Jackhammer into a botched Tombstone Piledriver into a botched Chokeslam. No replays.
No wonder Undertaker looks pissed. That was easily the worst Chokeslam since Undertaker tried it on Hogan at Judgment Day.
