Let's get into this!

What's the story, enthusiasts of exaggerated enmity?!
This week, I have a rather interesting match on offer for review. One of the more polarizing matches I've watched in some time, the internet can't seen to decide if they think this match is the hottest thing since sliced bread, or the worst thing NJPW has done in years. Honestly, I'm somewhere in the middle, and am going to try and thread the needle a bit here and play to both sides. Maybe by the end of this review I'll have a much better opinion, but I write this intro paragraph a mere hour after watching the match and am still undecided about how I truly feel!
Let's take a walk together, shall we?

Welcome back, wrestling fans, to another Matches of the Month!
A leaner month for quality wrestling, at least from what I found, but still enough quality matches to warrant one of these posts! I mean, I'd still post one even if there was only one good match, honestly. I'm all about consistency!
Let's not waste any more of your time. On to the matches!
What's the story, superfans of scripted scuffling?!
This is a rather special edition of the Weekly Watchlist, as I attended this show live! You guys get a unique perspective to this show that only a live viewer can provide, so I hope my takes on this show please you, dear reader! So, without further ado, let's get into this!

What's the story, maniacs of misleading mauling?!
Welcome, one and all, to the 11th edition of...
The Weekly Watchlist Wrestling Roulette!
Yes, dear reader, it's back! The once-every-10-weeks tradition continues! We've crossed the milestone of 10 editions of Wrestling Roulette, with the 11th instance proving to be the craziest of them all!
For those unfamiliar with the general concept, once ever 10 weeks, I let a random number generator pick the matches for me. That is normally what I let happen, but this week is somewhat unique, and you'll find out exactly why as you read on.
So what am I keeping you here for? Go ahead! Read on!
