There are a lot of people, mostly white, who are desperate for NJPW to go back to being a niche product playing to half sized crowds. I have no idea why or why they don't just go and watch Dragon Gate, NOAH or AJPW if they want something people aren't watching to feel superior about.

This has all made me think of the nWWWo and Sean Shannon writing an essay in the wake of Owen Hart's death about how Bret was a scumbag who wanted him to die so he could marry his widow.

God, wrestling people are the worst.
It got even better/worse from there.

Sean was going on about how Bret is probably the worst human being in wrestling. Other people are like "Well, what about the guy who murdered Bruiser Brody?" (and one person incorrectly identified him as Victor Quinones instead of the correct Jose Gonzalez, but that's not really important). Sean starts going off about how Charles S. Dutton of TV's "Roc" was a convicted killer but remorseful and turned out just fine after, so Bret was Probably Worse Than Invader.

The thread kept escalating until everyone suggested that Sean take a break from the internet.

This all reminds me of a thread we had a few years ago where there were several federations all competing to book a better show. I wish I could find it but I'm at work. That was when I first joined WH2K (rip in peace)

It was run by LittleMac, then JoeRules, then I forget who and feel stupid for it. It was all done in TEW, we had an in-game year of WCW vs WWF, then most of a year with ECW added in before it all ran out of steam. I am a bad writer and it took a surprisingly long time before I was told to stop writing stupid bullshit about Dave Taylor and his friend, an actual bear.

Inokiism Twitter is basically just former goons so this can't be true

Just enjoy what you like and not get mad at what people like, I'm friends with a person in the Pittsburgh DSA who over the last year has gotten really into NJPW (and ROH TV) and they have no interest in the WWE product, while I'm the opposite and we get along fine because we can have rational discussions on why we like the things we like and mutual interests that transcend companies (like how we are probably going to go to IWC shows or Pittsburgh NXT and ROH shows). Why is it so loving hard for people to get?
