Powell’s POV: Join me for my live review starting with the pre-show early Sunday morning (or late Saturday night) at 12:30CT/1:30ET, or with the start of the main card at 1CT/2ET. The event is available to stream live via New Japan World, which is available for roughly $9.99 per month, and there will be English and Japanese commentary options.
Tony Khan and friends getting ass crack o’clock live coverage but nothing for AAA. The bias continues.
The bias is incredible. You should show how angry you are by leaving and never coming back. That would teach me.
