They're likely waiting for fans to do Hangman/Omega. I kind of hope they slow burn it until Revolution next year, but that may be too long. I want Kenny to run with this belt collector gimmick for as long as he can. I'm hoping it leads to a Kenny/Aldis match at some point and then maybe Ibushi down the line.

A bit worried about the sting match, I get why they cant do 2 cinematics and the stadium stampede takes its place, but i dont know how many bumps he can take

Sky and Page are both pretty safe workers though, and they've been using the Sting knee injury angle for a few weeks, so I'm sure most of Sting's spots will be mat/submission stuff.

Apparently TBS is available in 3M more homes in the U.S. than TNT, so should help them get more eyes on the product.
In bad news, Will Ospreay suffered a legitimate neck injury and has been forced to vacate the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. Guy had been having a phenomenal run dating back to last year, so really sucks for him and NJPW.
