Redundant posted:I guess I misheard commentary during the introduction. My bad. Thanks for the correction. The stat was, if I am remembering it correctly, was that GoD had wrestled no singles matches in 2019, which I believe to be correct.

forkboy84 posted:Yeah, that one is right. Which makes sense, neither of them was in the G1 or New Japan Cup. Tama's only singles matches in 2018 were G1. It’s wild to me that GoD wasn’t in the New Japan Cup but loving Hikuleo was. karmicknight fucked around with this message at 12:23 on Jan 8, 2020 |

Rarity posted:He's not that great a worker but it kinda fits his whole sleazy Mexican indie guy gimmick which he's pretty good at Yeah, DOUKI is a fun job guy in a crew that really needs someone to eat pins, he's not a blow away worker and he doesn't seem like he is ever going to be, but he's entertaining as a role player.

basically every time Gedo has gotten into the ring with a chair this past weekend I had convinced myself he's going to hit Jay White with it and the Knife Pervert was going to be kicked out of Bullet Club.

TriffTshngo posted:There's this persistent idea I've seen among people who only keep up with New Japan sparingly, with the bigger shows or G1 season, that Jay White is always like one tour away from getting turned on and kicked out of Bullet Club, and that he "doesn't count" as leader or some poo poo and KENTA should be leader instead. My counterpoints to that are, the only reason Bullet Club leaders have been kicked out is because they all went somewhere else and Jay White, Gedo's pet project, is almost certainly not going anywhere, and also if he got kicked out and just stuck around on the roster, he has zero friends. He's made such an enemy of everybody outside of BC that there's no world in which he just gets betrayed, turns face, and then starts tagging with FinJuice or GBH or something. Counterpoint: Jay White having to slum it with Young Lions for a tour or three because he burned all his bridges would kind of own.

KungFu Grip posted:Jay such a good firey babyface that he was sort of like Shooter Umino when he was a young lion where he was incredibly over for both being a great worker and being good looking. I still think he's being wasted as a chicken poo poo heel that stalls matches and needs ref bumps or his manager to beat people. Like let him be a heel with good work rate. Hopefully if a face turn ever happens he also drops the sister abigail as his finisher. loving look at this disrespect for alex shelley's the shellshock, I can't loving believe it.

So, it's weird. Mox is teaming with RPG3K and Taguchi on one of the Sapporo nights and teaming with Okada the other night. meanwhile on that other night Taguchi is teaming with RPG3K and Will Ospreay. what I am getting at is Moxley is in Chaos and should team with Dustin and Greg is AEW once the forbidden portal is opened.

Best Friends and Orange Cassidy take Japan is the good idea. Anything more or less than that is a fools wish. An AEW ‘delegation’ in particular seems spotty at best as an idea rather than sending a unit. Other options in my mind based on the ‘send a unit to Japan’ thesis Jurassic Express for Best of the Super Juniors SCU for tag league or to back up comedy option CIMA in the G1. Private Party for junior tag league or w/ Hangman during G1 Lots of small spots that would be fun to see filled but nonessential.

Caprice is/was a regular commentator for ROH and it was amusing watching in real time as he learned people actually watch the English comms and start genuinely trying after kind of phoning in his early work that tour because it was clear he assumed no one watched the English broadcast (just like no one watches ROH)

I'm pretty cool with KENTA losing the double gold defense before NJPW establishes how Naito is going to defend both belts independent of each other, because Taichi is going to beat Okada and win one of them off Naito before the New Japan Cup ends.

# ¿ Jan 13, 2020 23:03 |

my backdoor joke option "wrap it up" is KENTA winning both belts from Naito and gifting the IC belt to Jay White leaving him exactly where he started before the Double Gold Dash

Ganso Bomb posted:The real question becomes, what kind of gear does a free Brodie Lee wear in 2020? It was weird seeing Moxley in those little bike shorts. Would Brodie keep with the jeans/tank top getup, or would the collective minds of the forum melt when he shows up in a plain pair of black trunks with white boots or something? Brodie Lee was wearing a tanktop and jeans long before the bad company came calling. So he better wear some proper wrestling gear because Mox in bike shorts loving ruled and I'm sure if I found that "Brodie Lee in Trunks from FCW" image people would agree.
