And it was about as interesting as I'd expected it to be. I'd like to hope the focus will be on worked matches at this event. |

| How fun. I wonder if it's easy to wrestle while cosplaying. |

This is gonna be pure cheeseball. I mean, Yudetamago's cartoon wrestlers wrestling for real? 
But...epic fail that the event is only available to readers of Young Men's Playboy magazine. Sorry, but Kinnikuman wouldn't be where it is today without the support of the Shueisha fanbase. This is just a big slap in the face to the people who read the Kinnikuman manga and helped turn it into the franchise juggernaut that is today. I hope they'll reconsider before the actual event takes place. |

You would have to ask those who have fought as Jyuushin Sanga Raiga. It's hard to see in those masks. |
