I'm slow catching up on shows but I just got done with Osaka last night and both NB ME's were fantastic and completely different  Elgin trying to kill Naito by powerbombing him into that guard rail, Okada's selling and Suzuki just being completely mental, Dragon Lee + Hiromu just trying to kill each other in general... I've never screamed in horror so many times in a match! I'm booking my flight for the new year again next month, can't wait to be back in Japan I miss it.... You guys can always use Tenso or something similar to buy directly from the njpw shop, I've done it several times and it's fine. I gotta pick up a couple of tees for cosplay this month.

and Shibata vs. Ospreay got 4 evennew observer posted:Dragon Lee is expected to work here more frequently this year. At the New Beginning show in Sapporo on 2/5, Lee actually forgot his boots before the trip and ended up wrestling in Shibata’s boots as they were the only ones that fit him. BOSJ is gonna own

What shows/matches do I want to watch if I want to see the best of LIJ? Everything from Naito's early prickishness to his total distaste of the titles.

Naito became El Ingobernable just before the 2015 G1, so I suggest you go through his matches there, especially his ones against Shibata and Tanahashi.

tbh if Cody goes to NJPW full time then (a) there's a chance he'll get better (b) Kenny might hand over the reigns to him and gently caress off with the Bucks to permanent main event glory sooner rather than later

I wonder if that means Zack is gonna drop the PWG title. It's one thing for the Bucks to never defend the tag straps, but both titles never being defended because the champs are busy is a bit much.

Venomous posted:tbh if Cody goes to NJPW full time then (a) there's a chance he'll get better (b) Kenny might hand over the reigns to him and gently caress off with the Bucks to permanent main event glory sooner rather than later Interesting that this is now coming out because on Facebook, when I see ads for NJ World, it's often Okada, Omega and Cody. So NJ is definitely promoting him above someone like Michael Elgin or Naito to the American audience. Cody as the new leader of BC does zero for me but hey maybe he'll finally start having those ****+ level matches this year. Probably a safe bet he'll be in G1 now.

said this before but if The Elite split off from the BC at some point in the next year (which they very much should) then the BC will become a lower-midcard act which will never again reach the heights it reached under Devitt, AJ or even Kenny this is all for the better tbh

Ideally that role goes to Adam Cole, but I think I remember reading he was pegged more for the jr heavy division anyway. I wonder if he decided not to make a huge commitment to NJ and stick more with ROH, hence the bigger investment in Cody by NJ (not to mention the constant talk of him being the next big indy piece to fall to WWE)
