In the terms of theme parks, I think the definites are as of now just NFLJapan and Soarin DisneySea. I actually think that we could get some surprises, but that it won't directly relate to the US Parks.
As far as games go, I expect Kingdom Hearts 3 to get the works, and that with Square Enix probably going to have a large presence, a form of update on that Avengers Project announced a year back.
DP, it has been officially shown off of new looks at Kingdom Hearts 3, revealing that Monsters Inc will be joining the fray.

Seeing some #sauces indicate there's going to be some big news. There's lots of smoke, hopefully there's a fire to it.
I bet we get more SWGE info, TSL opening, Epcot UK attraction announcement, another Epcot announcement, a DHS announcement, MK show venue announcement, DCA marvel land, and maybe something at DL?
A dumb thought, but a thought nonetheless, what if this is where they clarify what has been going around with the rumors of expansion for Tokyo Disneyland Resort? Along with TSL Opening Date, DCA Marvel Land, the Tower of Terror conversions at both Orlando and Paris, and possibly some stuff from Hong Kong, that I think could be something that could be big enough to stand as it's own.

I don't expect a whole lot of domestic news. I think we'll get details on Pixar Pier and opening dates for both Toy Story Land and Pixar Pier, but that's it. At most, maybe we'll get official titles and concept art for the Galaxy's Edge attractions.
That said, if we're lucky, they'll announce a big news blowout for WDW and DLR... meaning that UOR will announce something within the next week or so too.

If it's anything like the rest of the D23 Japan panels, we won't find anything out until afterwards, around 10:15 EST. Unless Disney themselves live-blogs the event.
As far as it goes, the Kingdom Hearts panel for instance was not recorded live, but that people in the theater could live-tweet/post as it went on.
I would expect the same, and if anything major happens; well have it spread out across an hour to two hour cycle.

the only true bomb drop would be marvel at DCA
but even that i doubt, probably more star wars stuff and a opening date for TSL

I would disagree.
The bigger bomb, is if Tokyo Disney Resort announces DisneySky for TDLR.

We're not always going to get massive news dumps like D23 2017. Especially at D23 Japan. This was always billed as an update on current projects more or less for Japan's D23.
While the RNRC retheme is of the Paris version, it is telling that they are doing it. Them removing Aerosmith from Paris tells me that the ride, in it's current iteration, isn't long for this world at DHS either.
