As much as I like the NOAH guys, they're too green to get the belts. Let them compete in NOAH, aren't they going to make their own belts?

IWGP Heavyweight Title: Yoshihiro Takayama (c) vs. Hiroyoshi Tenzan (V1 attempt for Takayama)

Sorry, Takayama, but you'll never amount to anything good unless you beat anyone NOT from the 90's (Misawa, Chono, etc.) Your @$$ is done, pal.

Of course, Murahama will job, but let's hope he makes Tiger look good as he did with Minoru Tanaka.

IWGP Tag Team Title: Masahiro Chono & Hiroyoshi Tenzan (c) vs. Yutaka Yoshie & Hiroshi Tanahashi (V8 attempt for Chono & Tenzan)

This has to be it. Rematches for the title are always in the challengers' favor. Although I would have teamed Tanahashi with a better worker, say Nakanishi, Nishimura or even Makabe.

NWF Heavyweight Title: Yoshihiro Takayama (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (V5 attempt for Takayama)

I'd be the first to be surprised if Nakamura gets it. On the other hand, I don't really like Takayama (re my reasons above), but Nakamura's win over Nortje is too suspect for my liking.
