A block is absolutely stacked. I wish Moxley and Tanahashi switched and Suzuki was in, instead of Taichi.

Has there been an EVIL vs. Sanada match yet? Because it looks like we’re about to get one. I guess the subtle angle they shot at Dominion may have been done to give it a bit more juice…though I can’t see them separating either from the group yet (even if it would probably do wonders for Sanada to get away from Naito for a bit).
