adding Bushi and Takahashi to the brackets. I'm starting to see that they'll likely just use the guys for the Rev Pro Junior tourny. I'm hoping they bring in at least one or two non-njpw or heavyweight to mix it up

Ryusuke Taguchi, Tempura Boyz, and Tiger Mask are the other Japan bracket guys, so just like the British J Cup, this is just another BOSJ tournament
