OG looked like they practice well for this, I'm not sure what you mean.

Easy, what he means is Western teams losing can only mean they didn't prepare at all, otherwise they would crush chinese teams without breaking a sweat. It is Azarkon, it is china, if you stick around long enough you will understand their relationship.
It is no secret that Western teams(at least European) play more tournaments, leaving less time for practice, whereas Eastern teams practice more. It is no excuse. If you participate, you should come prepared.

Chinese fans have used this "they didn't practice" for years, though, and Azarkon is also aware of this. Chinese teams have lacked tournaments in the past, but it seems better.

Azarkon and china have a love hate relationship.
Its like when your wife loves coke
and you love pepsi.
But deep down you love each other, yet you hate each other at the same time.

The Western teams also just came back from holidays, while Chinese teams are going into holidays. It's a different schedule. I'm sure Western teams are going to be prepared for the next tournament.

W33 gets super strength from his vampire nature, but even then I'm not sure his back is strong enough to carry this.

If the Chinese dominate this tournament, they are currently best. Of course there can be natural causes, but it is what it is. It doesn't remove from your general opinion, that Western teams have been in the controlling seat for quite a while, because that is true.
