I'll never be as down on Hashi as everyone else because when he basically replaced Yujiro as the low card job guy in the 2016 G1 it was a vast improvement.

So no matter what happens with him there'll always be a voice in the back of my head saying "Hey, at least he's not Yujiro."

US champ Jay White when he was more a vicious scumbag than a cheating scumbag was very fun and some days I miss him. :(

I think a lot of the time New Japan does ref bumps and interference spots pretty poorly and those happen a lot in Jay’s matches. When they work it’s great but sometimes I feel they fall flat.

I think Okada/Naito is maybe the best match I've ever seen all the way through and Okada/Ibushi had 15 minutes where they did nothing in particular before they had 20 minutes of amazing stuff. I can't understand preferring the latter unless Ibushi going full psycho mode is everything you ever wanted.

Speaking of Naito, he did the thing

Those 15 minutes of slow grappling and intense stares ruled extremely hard.

The 2018 one is my favourite though i think a big part of that was the final shot of the lone Okada dollar still on the ramp, which I guess technically didn't have to do with the wrestling.

This is the Taichi I want to see when he pulls out the Iron Fingers.

Are they actually saying the storyline is that Taichi is getting possessed by the spirit of Iizuka? Cause that loving rules :allears:

Have you not been paying attention??

Iizuka's brutal soul lies within the Iron Fingers. Taichi is gambling with dangerous forces whenever he wield them.

I always thought NJPW jobbers were people they'd tried to push and who hadn't worked out like Yujiro or Goto

How dare you. Goto chokes often but he’s not close to being in the same league as Yujiro! :colbert:

Part of Kenny's gimmick as BC leader was that he was a bad leader who only cared about himself and the Bucks, so I think it makes enough sense he's not many peoples favourite in that role.

Hey! He was sorta cool with Chase. He would high five Chase when he tried to Too Sweet and it was very good. :colbert:

I have no clue how Fale feels about BLM or whatever but he was a big Trump supporter.

I legit want to know out of morbid curiosity. Like, I know non-americans take an interest in our politics because we effect a lot of poo poo and we are really messy and funny, the desperate housewives of statecraft but like, why pick a team? And team Trump? Just gawk and laugh, don't touch the poop Fale.

American politics and pop culture is pretty big internationally, and just speaking from Australia I definitely know people who are huge fans of Trump. So it doesn’t shock me at all that Fale’s a trump guy, there’s plenty of them outside of the states.

Skipper would never betray Justin and Craig by teaming with a rival in the tag division.
