Some Thoughts

Day 1 destroyed everybody’s pick’ ems

Jamie Hayter is the first person to get a singles win over Hoshiki since her return.  Couple that with her beating Utami at EVE ant it’s clear Stardom are high on her

Hoshiki is off to a bad start but I still expect her to be one of the top 2-3 in her block

Konami beating Kagetsu is a big win for her.  The triangle lancer’s 100% success rate continues

Miyagi going 0-2 to start is surprising as Stardom usually protect her from defeat, although it does make Hayter and Priestley look great beating her

Hayashishita and Kyona continued their feud with a pass out finish.  There still hasn’t been a clear winner between the two but Utami can hold that win over JunKyo
