remusclaw posted:That is pretty cool to see. I wish I liked his finish though, something about that particular version of the unprettier just doesn't do it for me. I've never liked that move and his version is particularly over-exaggerated with the leap he adds. Asterisk for when Naito sells it like the champ he is.

I feel cheated whenever EVIL doesn't use the lasers. https://www.njpw1972.com doesn't translate every promo but they do have some promos up there and most of the news stories are fun reads.

How bad is the Fukuoka crowd? If the crowd is actually hot I can see Okada getting 4 stars out of Fale what with them pushing him cracking under the weight of so many tough matches. If it's like the crowd for this pasty show though...

Fukuoka crowds are weird, you'd think they'd be more amped because it's the one massive show for the year, but they're regularly dead, because...they get one massive show a year and no real tours. It might be better now that NJPW's profile is higher, and a good shows gonna be a good show, but yeah.

The never trios titles should be defended in every show including throw away mid tour house shows.

It's kinda of funny how strongly Fale has been built up compared to Jinder's title shot. I mean both are not the best ideas but Fale at least makes booking sense with the New Japan Cup finish and all his tags since than

Jinder's spent a LOT of time on his back.

Now that Shibata is out of the picture (rip), I want Ishii to turn full on heel and murder Okada for the title. Or join Suzuki-gun

I'll say this for Fale, he was perfectly placed a couple of years back as the guy who represented Okada's loss of confidence following his loss to Tanahashi as Wrestle Kingdom 9. That lead to a pretty great (storywise) match where Okada had slowly built his confidence back up and absolutely obliterated Fale in their match, including hitting him with the piledriver!

I haven't heard one person compare Fale to Jinder. But I have heard Juice Robinson being used as the comparison, which is slightly less ludicrous but still wrong.

Fale could beat up Jinder. And if Fale can't gently caress him up, he's got a posse of overly caffeinated tongans down the road that'll finish the job.
