This match also features the blow up doll Yoshihiko,\nwho went viral in the past.&nbsp; There will\nalmost certainly be a title change here, but it\u2019s too hard to predict who will\nleave New York as champion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Soma Takao &amp; Tetsuya Endo vs. Yukio\nSakaguchi &amp; Masahiro Takanashi \u2013 <\/strong>DAMNATION vs. Shuten-doji in this match, which promises to be good, particularly\nfrom Tetsuya Endo who is one of my favourite DDT wrestlers.&nbsp; Takao and Endo will probably win here, since\nShuten-doji is disbanding soon, but the match will be good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HARASHIMA &amp; Kazusada Higuchi vs. Akito\n&amp; Ethan Page vs. Shigehiro Irie &amp; Jason Kincaid \u2013 <\/strong>An interesting match between some slightly\nthrown-together teams, including Irie who left DDT last year to travel and wrestle\nabroad.&nbsp; HARASHIMA and Akito are really\ngood, so this match shouldn\u2019t lack for quality, and I\u2019ll go with HARASHIMA and\nHiguchi to win since they\u2019re both full time roster members, and HARASHIMA is the\nExtreme title holder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>MAO vs. Sanshiro Takagi \u2013 <\/strong>This match is billed as a \u201cWeapon Rumble in USA,\u201d\nwhich comes in the wake of their weapon rumble match at last year\u2019s Peter Pan\nin Ryogoku, which was amazing.&nbsp; Weapons\nin last year\u2019s match included MAO\u2019s own phone number being given out, and Andreza\nGiant Panda.&nbsp; This match will surely be\nexcellent, and a prime example of why DDT get comedy wrestling so right. &nbsp;I expect MAO to get the win here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>KO-D Openweight Title &#8211; Konosuke Takeshita (c)\nvs. Daisuke Sasaki \u2013 <\/strong>This is a\nrematch of the recent DDT Judgement main event, in which Takeshita took the title\noff Sasaki.&nbsp; This promises to be the best\nmatch of the night from a wrestling standpoint, as both men are excellent\nin-ring performers (even if Takeshita lacks the charisma of Sasaki.)&nbsp; I doubt that they\u2019ll flip the title right back\nto Sasaki here, so I expect Takeshita to win and move on to a new title feud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stardom \u2013 American Dream 2019, April 5<sup>th<\/sup>\n4pm, NYC Arena, Queens<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stardom held off announcing\nthe majority of their card until today, which worried a lot of people, but then\nthey just went and announced arguably their most protected matchup for this\nshow.&nbsp; All the major Stardom talent is coming\nover, barring the wrestlers still in school (so no AZM or Starlight Kid.)&nbsp; The card has the feel of an authentic show,\nwith a lot of unit tag matches supporting two big title matches.&nbsp; Stardom have run shows abroad in the past (including\nin the US,) and with their new partnership with Pro Wrestling EVE it seems like\nthey\u2019re trying to make a renewed push to attract Western fans.&nbsp; Since Stardom has a streaming service and\nEnglish subtitles, they are well placed to attract new fans, and this show\nshould help draw people in.&nbsp; Stardom seem\nhappy to rely on their streaming service, and partnerships with ROH and EVE,\nwhich should help their growth in overseas markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You can still get tickets to our event this Friday, April 5 at 4 PM at the NYC Arena in Queens!

Hazuki &amp; Jenny\nRose vs. Hana Kimura &amp; Sumie Sakai &amp; Stella Grey \u2013 <\/strong>I\u2019m excited to see some of the Stardom talent get\non the card, and hopefully the MSG crowd will enjoy the Oedo Tai dance. &nbsp;It\u2019s a toss-up who wins here, but let\u2019s say\nSumie Sakai since she\u2019s actually signed to Ring of Honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Honor Rumble \u2013<\/strong> Jyushin Thunder Liger, Kenny King, PJ Black, Beer City Brusier, Brian Milona, and Cheesburger have been announced for the rumble so far, but it will be a way to get a lot of wrestlers onto the card, and surely some legends who are in town.&nbsp; The idea is fun and it\u2019s a good way to open the show, even if there are going to be some big names here that didn\u2019t make the main card.&nbsp; Why not give Liger the win here before he retires next Wrestle Kingdom?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>NEVER Openweight\/ROH TV Title \u2013 Will Ospreay (c) vs. Jeff Cobb (c) \u2013 <\/strong>Ospreay and Cobb have been feuding on and off for a while now, and Ospreay pinned Cobb with a Storm Breaker at Honor Rising.\u00a0 I\u2019m not really into Ospreay\u2019s current run, so I\u2019d like to see Cobb win, and come over to New Japan as a replacement for the departing Michael Elgin.\u00a0 However, I have a feeling that Ospreay will win here, since New Japan are very high on him, and he can do some ROH shows as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dalton Castle vs. Rush \u2013 <\/strong>This match feels a bit random, as if ROH threw\nit together because they need to include two of their biggest stars.&nbsp; I guess that Rush will win here, since he\u2019s\nthe newer guy, and probably on the up since Castle has lost a step since his\ninjury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WOH Title \u2013 Mayu Iwatani (c) vs. Kelly Klein \u2013<\/strong> I\u2019m thrilled that the women get the chance to perform on the stage at MSG, and I think Mayu will really impress the crowd.\u00a0 This is the third match between the two in the last few months, and Mayu has won both, so I expect that she will probably drop the title back to Klein here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>NYC Street Fight \u2013 Bully Ray vs Juice Robinson \u2013\n<\/strong>This was billed as an \u201copen\nchallenge,\u201d and on March 31<sup>st<\/sup> Juice Robinson answered the\nchallenge.&nbsp; As far as I know this isn\u2019t\nfor the IWGP US Title, but at least Juice is on the card.&nbsp; I expect Juice to win to keep the crowd\nhappy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title \u2013 Taiji Ishimori (c) vs. Dragon Lee vs. Bandido \u2013 <\/strong>This match has the potential to be one of the best on the show.\u00a0 All three wrestlers can go, the only question is their chemistry in a triple threat.\u00a0 I\u2019m confident that it&#8217;ll come together though, and I expect Ishimori to win here ahead of Best of the Super Juniors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IWGP\/ROH Tag Title \u2013 Tama Tonga &amp; Tanga Loa (c) vs. Brody King &amp; PCO (c) EVIL &amp; SANADA vs. Mark &amp; Jay Briscoe \u2013 <\/strong>This match is intended to unify the IWGP and ROH Tag Team Titles, which is an interesting concept, and so I think rules out EVIL and SANADA (since they probably won\u2019t be doing both sets of shows.)\u00a0 Four-way tag matches can be quite hit and miss, but hopefully they manage to do something interesting with this combination of teams.\u00a0 I could actually see Brody King and PCO winning here, so that\u2019s what I\u2019ll go with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>British Heavyweight Title \u2013 Zack Sabre Jr. (c) vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi \u2013 <\/strong>ZSJ challenged Tanahashi for a title match at MSG after he lost to Tanahashi during the New Japan Cup.\u00a0 Tanahashi and ZSJ work together, so I expect this to be a good match, and for ZSJ to win here and keep hold of his British title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IWGP Intercontinental Title \u2013 Tetsuya Naito (c) vs. Kota Ibushi \u2013 <\/strong>This is the match that I am most looking forward to on the card, and knowing previous meetings between these two, it promises to be a violent affair with no mercy for anyone\u2019s neck.\u00a0 Both wrestlers will be hugely over with the crowd, but I predict Ibushi will pick up the win here, especially given my predicted outcome in the main event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ROH World Title \u2013 Jay Lethal (c) vs. Marty Scurll vs. Matt Taven \u2013 <\/strong>I\u2019m not really invested in any of these three, but the fact that this is a ladder match promises to be interesting.\u00a0 Scurll has to be on his way out of ROH when his contract expires, and Lethal has been the champion for what seems like ever, so Taven really makes the most sense to win here.\u00a0 Hopefully there will be lots of crazy spots on the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IWGP Heavyweight Title \u2013 Jay White (c) vs. Kazuchika Okada \u2013 <\/strong>White vs. Okada main events MSG, and sees the upstart Switchblade take on the Rainmaker ace.\u00a0 White has had the upper hand on Okada for a long time, and even though most people are predicting an Okada win, I just have a feeling that White will prevail here.\u00a0 NJPW have invested so much in making him their new foreign star, and a title change here would mean three title changes in the first four months of 2019.\u00a0 I predict that by the end of the show MSG will be breathing with the Switchblade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three great shows on offer from three of the top Japanese wrestling companies.
