The real reason Zack picked Fujita is he was impressed with his body in the body building competition last month

Kenoh is going to scream so hard that doctors will have to send him to be killed, all while Naito has a little giggle. :allears:

The best thing about the Kenoh Angry Babyman persona is that he looks completely ridiculous and THEN slaps you so hard your jaw dislocates.

Yes, that's because he is & that's why he's my favourite wrestler

Anyway, full thoughts

Young boy opener will be great, the NJ young boys have always had great battles with the AJPW young boys & I expect the same here.
Leube getting to team with Ishii against Kitamiya & Inaba is good for him. Really dig that match too, Inaba is hugely underrated, Kitamiya & Ishii will absolutely slap.
Kojima, Tanahashi, Yano & Sugiura vs KentaFuji, ELP & Gedo is 7/8s of a good match. Well, 3/4s maybe, drop out Gedo & Yano. Still, more of KentaFuji vs Kojima & Sugiura will be tasty.
Despy vs YO-HEY? poo poo, sure. YO-HEY is decent even though he gives off an energy of smelling of stale cigarettes, Despy is amazing, that'll be fun.
Wato, TM & Taguchi vs AMAKUSA, Miyawaki & Alejandro is filler, but it'll be fun to see Wato against the 3 NOAH jrs.
Kiyomiya & Inamura vs Okada & Makabe? Man, a) I hate this because Inamura is eating the pinfall, NOAH does not appreciate what they have in that unit. b) Bin Makabe for loving anyone else & this match would be improved, I have no interest in a guy who only takes 2 bumps a night when he's really working hard. Okada vs Kaito could be fun.
BUSHI vs Tadasuke, a match to give NOAH a little hope & a rare victory.
Hiromu vs Ohara is a match I'd rather not happen, Ohara doesn't deserve this spot because he's a piece of poo poo. Swap in Hirooki.
SANADA vs Soya is fun because it's a AJPW/Wrestle-1 reunion.
Nakajima vs Takagi & Naito vs Kenoh though. This is my poo poo. The rest of the card could be Makabe squashing Inamura & so long as these 2 matches go hard I'll be a happy bunny. 2 matches, 3 of my favourite wrestlers & also Tetsuya Naito who can be quite good when he's arsed to. I'm sure giant pissbaby Kenoh will get it out of him. Nakajima vs Shingo though, straight up dream match territory. Only ever had 2 singles matches before, 2005 in DG when Nakajima was 17 & Shingo 22, & 2012 in Diamond Ring. And they are both much different wrestlers now.

So glad I watched that Muta V Nakamura card because I now recognise most of those guys. Looks like a killer card. Is it going to be on NJPW World or Wrestle Universe?

I'd image beating his girlfriend, costing her four and a half years of her career is enough to warrant that title for life.

Sure, yet there is a difference between taking the YO-HEY route of keeping your head down after doing some (allegedly) monstrous poo poo or if Ohara's continued being a garbage human being in the decade since he got fired from WNC for it. All I saw from him during the time I followed NOAH was the positive stuff the company was putting out so I asked the question
