He came into this match with a broken ankle, broken hand, and not fully healed shoulder […] and he only made it worse by breaking his other ankle halfway through.
Ibushi’s comments before this match sounded insane but not out of line with what people like Kenny have said before, while putting on barnstormers. It wasn’t clear just how much Kota really was underselling the amount of damage he was hiding.
I hope Kenny can sit Ibushi down and smack some sense into him about getting damn surgery and fixing up his problems. He went from putting on bangers against Speedball in GCW to an absolute embarrassment of a main event for NOAH in…*checks* fucking hell literally 9 months lol.
What in the actual fuck?!
Ibushi, Marafuji, NOAH, no one smart was involved in this fucking decision.

What a waste of a once-in-a-lifetime matchup.

Man that’s a sobering number isn’t it.
Took 9 months to make him, and 9 months to destroy him.
