I legit don't get those people. KENTA is probably one of the most influential wrestlers of the past 20 years.

davidbix posted:KENTA is not in the "FREE" section of the NJPW website. Right now, it's Amazing Red, Chris Jericho, Jon Moxley, Karl Fredericks, Ryu Lee, The DKC, and TJP. Doesn't that means wrestlers aren't in a faction rather than their contract status? We know Suzuki's a freelancer while in Suzuki-gun and SANADA either is or was a freelancer while in LIJ while Karl Fredericks is presumably under contract as a Dojo graduate

I thought non-aligned wrestlers with New Japan contracts were listed as Main Unit on the website, while the guys in Free are non-aligned freelancers. Obviously freelancers who are in factions would be listed among the rest of their faction mates

Jade is a Division 1 athlete with a degree in Psychology and arguably the best look in all of wrestling right now. A lot of people seem to think she's going to bomb in her debut match but I just seriously doubt it, she's not going to get gassed, she's incredibly strong and agile to be able to perform at that level of college athletics and she's certainly intelligent to have earned the degree she has. If i'm wrong oh well, she's young and starting out, the sky is the limit, but I see her being very impressive in her debut along the same lines as Lesnar or Angle, you don't get a body like that and compete at the level she has by being clumsy or uncoordinated. All she really has to do is some power moves and carry herself like a star which she already does and she'll be fine for quite a while. Put her in the ring with Shida, Rosa, or Deeb and I have no doubt they can get a 4 star match together. So gently caress that guy and his weird tweet

Yes, Impact did great things to build a partnership with NJPW back in the mid to late 2000s. Let's take three random names and how the then TNA treated them: Shinsuke Nakamura: Then IWGP champion, relegated to appearing on Xplosion. Tetsuya Naito: Jobbed out to Kevin Nash. Kazuchika Okada: Turned into a parody of the Green Hornet's sidekick Kato to Samoa Joe. In fact, I remember after Okada had returned to NJPW and was starting his rise, MVP did a video with a bunch of the Japanese roster in English for the fans overseas where he asked Okada' if Okada had any words for TNA. Okada's response was simply "Hell no!"
