Why would anyone not just use a Chromecast and the NJPW app?

or just from the chrome web browser. I only basically use chrome for media streaming but it was well worth the 30 bucks just for NJPW and CMLL. I've had zero issues with it all year

Yeah, this is the easiest and cheapest solution. The first-gen Chromecast hardware kinda sucks butt, but for the most part, just plug a Chromecast into a TV and cast the Chrome tab to your TV. It's not screen mirroring, either, so you can do other poo poo on your PC or whatever if you have to.

I assume he means cast from Chrome (on your computing device) to the Chromecast

Sanada going to Mexico and doing trios with Rush and Pierroth would be the best thing for him.

He could learn so much from Pierroth.

I'm predicting big things for Sanada in the G1 this year. I hope the guy has everything good come to him after his terrible experience in TNA.

The Muta poo poo really killed his confidence too. I'm glad he found his feet in NJPW.

They forced him into the Muta gimmick that pretty much killed his relationship with Mutoh and led to him trying to get him blackballed in Japan.

He really didn't enjoy his experience there. It wasn't Okada level but it nearly killed his love of wrestling.

I mean you can argue that no one can judge what's going to set Mutoh off, and he was a young kid that didn't really get the response he was going to get from Mutoh.

In a way though it ended up freeing him up so that when Kojima pushed for him to come in, that he wasn't really tied down to anyone.

by my count Muta forgot to kick out, ref counted three but said two, OR it was supposed to be moonsault -> mist on the first one.

almost sounds like they rung the bell after a two-count, too. yikes.

I like the ref standing looking baffled as to what happened even though he was like six inches away when Muta blew the mist in SANADA's face.

I'm trying to find the press conference Mutoh made him do a day or so after the match where he's clearly uncomfortable as he announces he's decided to no longer wrestle in Japan and that instead he was going to continue his career in America, while all the time Mutoh is glaring at him.

Sanada doesn't work again in Japan for about 2 years until he comes in for NJPW.

He didn't? I thought it was just un-colored (I don't know if that has any significance) - did he straight up just spit in his face?

Fighting blood excels
Someone needs to pull Sanada aside and tell him all he needs to do is fire up more towards the end of his matches. I'm hoping Kenny works their match in a way to elicit an emotional response from him; once he taps into that then boom, new main event player.

SatoshiMiwa

Yeah from the feeling of Kenny's G1 Press conference and the lay out of the matches I get the feeling New Japan feels this way too. He had some good fire in some bits with Suzuki today and I hope Suzuki and Kenny can get Sanada to the next level. If not he could be passed by Tama Tonga who also seems to be getting a mini push.

Cause he'd slot in nicely for a post dome match with Naito if Naito wins the belt (or a post G1 Title shot at Okada)

I met Sanada backstage when Slammiversary was in Texas. He was very handsome and very nice.

his dome main event against tanahashi was treated like a retirement match and that was six wrestle kingdoms ago

Did Mutoh run Kojima out of All Japan too? Usually it's so rare to see a Japanese top guy switch companies so have to figure Mutoh did something to run him out
