Captain Jack’s Armbar Emporium Ep. 31: NJPW G1 Climax 27, Nights 1-6!

It’s the most wonderful tiiiiiime…of the yeeeeear!

It’s tournament season for pro wrestling, and Captain Jack (@JackHeartless) is joined by return guest Sleeve Assassin (@SleeveAssassin) to talk about this year’s iteration of the best tourney there is – the G1 Climax!

They’ve watched every A & B Block match from the first 6 nights of action, and will break down the best of the best shown, for those who have nowhere near that kind of time.  Also, stick around for the bonus PWG BOLA preview, Kawada’s above-average ramen skills, and even more love for the beautiful violence that is Bruiser Brody.  Enjoy!
