sigmachiev posted:Wonder if the strong advance will give them incentive to amp up the sizzle a little more. Entrances have been a little more low key the last couple years and especially compared to the batshit 2014 show (Devitt zombie demon, Marty Friedman playing out Tanahashi, the Nakamura poledancer entrance, etc.) Jericho's almost certainly playing himself out with the rest of Fozzy if he can manage to get Bushiroad to pay for them.

They flew in Marty Friedman to shred for Tanahashi one time a fake band like Fozzy has to be cheaper

Marty lives in Tokyo, though, and is such a weeb that he probably did that poo poo for free. This is a dude that helped write a "learn English with JoJo's" book, after all

I wonder if they can top Naito's entrance for this years Wrestle Kingdom. The video package just fit the screen in a way that was so awesome.

wk8 was the weakest BR era WK in ring but it had by far the best entrances (don't forget Muta and Yano's). Agreed that a return to the pageantry that's been missing since they ran a strict time slot for WK9's US PPV airing would be very welcome

I don't know why they bother with entrances since no matter what they do Police Man and Metalico will outdo them on random Pueblas.

Dragon Rojo Jr courting death each time with his fireworks gun is by far the best entrance ever.

Jesus, I just googles is and WWE has 585 registered employees. I had no idea New Japan was THAT much smaller of a company, forget about the level of gap in net worth. I would have never guessed it from how the company presents itself and its production values, if nothing else.

Isn't the production side of the TV handled by TV Asahi? So that's one reason they have a smaller staff since everything WWE TV is in house. Still that's a real good year and it's a good sign for growth and hopefully it continues

Okada's first defense against Naito was fantastic and a sign of things to come, they had a great match at the Dome against tremendous odds and now they are set to top it.
