Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
Fale may be a bad person but he's also the most technically proficient wrestler on the roster, and a definite shoo-in for this year's Bryan Danielson award.

yea not that I untrust your random goons reportage but I thought it would be weird a Tongan from...tonga would be either negative or positive for an American political movement

No offense but if the only evidence for it is that he was into that goofy alien poo poo I'm not gonna throw him under the bus

I know he can't wrestle but neither can like half the roster and no one associates them with glumpf

I mean liiiike dude is poc correct even. In b4 even pocs can be bad people if it should happen to be a privileged goon who types out such a sentiment

Fale isn't quiet that he's very weirdly pro-Trump for a non-American. No idea why that one goon brought up the goofy Area 51 thing, but look at his Twitter follows and likes. It's not in question.

Also not buying that half the roster can't wrestle. Honma is a loving wreck and should retire, Jado and Gedo are in the same position, everyone else is a passing level of competence. Tiger Mask can still go at a decent level, especially as a grumpy old fart beating the poo poo out of Young Lions. Makabe I guess could go because he does so little but at least has a couple of times a year when he'll remind us he's choosing to not bother rather tha being incapable. There are guys who add nothing, mainly YH and Yujiro, but Fale actively subtract at this point. Wasn't always the case, he clearly doesn't care anymore. Which is fine, I like doing the bare minimum at work too. But I'm not an entertainer.

Is Gedo that far gone? It's impossible to give a poo poo about BC tags but he had a perfectly reasonable singles match with BUSHI two years ago.

Also all those guys are clearly slotted in prelim spots and rarely if ever get pushed. It's weird to complain about their talent (or lack therof) when it's very easy to just skip them.

I saw Gedo on the same card as Rock and Roll Express last year. Gibson and Morton both had better knees than Gedo.

Gedo can work a very specific kind of match. A big Memphis clusterfuck where he's the chickenshit heel using everything but the kitchen sink on the babyface who gets him in the end. Which is what he'll do with Okada. Or it'll be a 4 minute squash.

The only one that has a crowd is Dominion at 33% capacity, I think.

The NJC final (which is basically night one of Dominion) is also in Osaka-Jo at 1/3 capacity. So in theory they can do like 8000 paid over the two days, I think?

I wonder how they'll handle these sorts of things. Will members of the same household have to sit apart or will there be accommodations for that? Interesting considerations.
