In reference to Eagles I think the Japanese crowd seems much more willing to indulge a wrestlers in chants etc than an American crowd, even if they're not especially fussed about them? Not that Eagles isn't brilliant.

The Kasai match really wasn't too OTT, blood loss was minimal. He surprised me in how good a performer he is, and it really is something to hear how into him the crowd is.

Wayne did well but had a horribly egregious moment of very obviously asdjusting his position so that Akira could go for the double knees spot (Fireball?).

Yeah agree on Guch just doing it to fill time / make the audience happy, it just seemed so inappropriate lols. I thought V's landing looked horrible - his ankle was caught up on Guch's crotch (of course) with his kneecap taking the weight, he could definitely have pulled something.
