SUPER J CUP FINAL
KUSHIDA def. Yoshinobu Kanemaru to Win the 2016 Super J Cup

Overall, the matches were pretty good I guess, but as the tournament progressed, it became much more predictable (and annoying).

Tights' win over Lyger was dumb. Sydal vs. Ospreay was my favorite QF match.
Fantastic Tag Team Championship Match between the Bucks and the Guns and similar could be said about Kotoge and Harada vs. ACH and Ishimori.

Loved seeing Volador Jr.....but not so much Caristico. The Tomato dude won a match....I don't know how to react.

I like Kushida but he got the 2008-2010 John Cena treatment in this tournament. The saving grace was Alex Shelley coming out to congratulate his Time Splitter partner even though he was with the MCMG that night.
