Luke, what did you think of the first match, which was... kind of all it like started out awesome and then when the wrestling started it was like ah no it was takeshita versus sonata for the tv title sonata's entrance was awesome
i loved it i'm like holy crap what is this music it's amazing oh, it's Sonata's old LIJ music.
And then I could tell straight away that this person wasn't Sonata, but I get what they were going for.
They've got all the different masks and stuff on.
They're all coming out and kind of lining up.
I'm like, this is fucking cool.
Who's Sonata wrestling again? Oh, no, he's losing big time.
Oh, man, that kind of bummed me out.
Forbidden Door's coming up.
Sorry, Sonata, you're losing.
Yeah, I didn't know.
I mean, that entrance was so incredible.
It was so fucking good.
It was like, so they brought out... like every version of Sonata that's happened in New Japan and like his different theme music played.
And I always loved his L.I.J. theme music.
It's like a punk rock song that just has a two note melody.
that's it and it's like fuck yeah that's all you need two notes what's that uh like one chord is is kind of you know it's fine two chords you're getting you know getting a little complicated three chords it's jazz so two notes i mean that's not even a chord
i
love
it you got that like kind of grungy thing underneath it that builds and builds like that's great and uh all these musics may not as good after after that except for maybe like the just five guys group music that was awesome yeah that's good
his his just got five guys theme played and i was like oh god it was so bad
He's been away because he had, like, nerve damage or something going on where, like, he could barely move one of his arms at all.
And that was why he was incorporating a bit more of, like, guitar stuff and all that kind of stuff just to kind of, you know, lighten the load or take things easy on himself, I guess, something like that.
