Liger and Suzuki have already been in a million tag matches! Just book the singles match here and let RevPro have their f*cking champion for a show (yes, RevPro has a show scheduled for June 9th).

As for Moxley vs. Umino... WHY?! What a f*cking waste. It's you second biggest show of the year! It would have been much better to have Moxley vs. Juice at BOSJ finals go to a quick DQ with a crazy post-match brawl, then do the title change here in a no DQs match.

debuting Moxley with a DQ would piss off a lot of people. It's a weak match, but it can just be a good showing for Moxley, and you can have your post match brawl here instead.

The point of the post-match brawl is to hopefully alleviate people getting pissed off due to the DQ, so there is no reason to have one after the Umino match. I think that between still giving people a full-length fight (even if the match part ends in a quick DQ) and then pretty much immediately announcing a rematch in a no DQs match for the title at a show four days away, people wouldn't be too upset.
DQs should only upset people if they're happening too often or if they are clearly being done to artificially stretch a storyline out rather than being a clear and obvious step in the story (which announcing the rematch right away will make clear). In a company that never does DQs, having a dude who has threatened to f*cking stab someone show up and go wild to the point where there is a DQ (or he drives Juice to that point and we get a double DQ) would stand out as being different, not some disappointing WWE-style "DQ because we didn't want to beat either guy."

people wouldn't be TOO upset, against no one being upset at all and being happy for a MOTYC that got a lot of time on a show that where it got a chance to shine. Moxley vs Umino is a perfectly fine squash match for Dominion

It's f*cking DOMINION. You shouldn't have any squash matches, especially with one of your champions! MAYBE you could argue that it'd be okay to have a squash if it's someone debuting, but Moxley doesn't need a squash match. The point of a squash match is to show us that someone is a force to be reckoned with. We already know Moxley is a force to be reckoned with because he's a freakin' champion.

And I'm pretty sure it's not going to be an actual squash match because New Japan doesn't do those because the point of young-boy matches is for them to get their reps in, so getting squashed doesn't make sense. It's going to go at least seven minutes.

Kojima vs Shingo makes me f*cking moist

As well it should. It wish they would undercard singles like this more often.
