i think that at this point Takayama just fights anyone he wants, but i feel i read somewhere that he fought or is going to feud with Suzuki over there at NOAH, could be imagining things

Yeah but the match is in Mexico so no one will know about it anyway. Why not send someone who will make the match good and can also take a pin?

Huh. I wonder what happened that they changed the ROH and TNA teams to "Team USA." Seems to me like they're trying to get LU over south of the border.

All teams are representative of their country. The NOAH and AJPW teams are presented as Team Japan, same with Team Mexico, and we're still waiting on Team 'Rest of the world'

Yeah, but weren't those two teams slated to be all ROH and all TNA?

not really, none of the teams were announced to be promotion only, they just said that such and such promotions would be represented.

Meanwhile, two new teams announced

Team Mexico - Legends (Dr Wagner Jr, Blue Demon Jr, and Solar)
Team International - Angelico (South Africa), Mesias (puerto rico), and Drew Galloway (UK)
