at hosikawa geting injured the zero one guys are droping at an alarming rate right now.
Whoa...I hope Hoshikawa's alright...And boy are they devaluing the value of a good cage death match...
I have lot all my respect for my namesake...there I would like to be known as WilliamsFan from now on...I feel disgraced with the name of Edge on me...
He is one of my personal favorites. I was waiting for Hashimoto to give hime the push he deserved, and now it may be too late. But the push is unimportant when compared to his health. He is just an awesome, unselfish worker.
