I was thinking we might get a three way Kitamura/Kawato/Oka YLC final added after thursday, but there's an article on the Japanese site that states "all cards decided" Was on there to attempt to figure out who the show's sponsor is, and while I was unsucessful I did notice that Jericho now has a profile on the Japanese site. http://www.njpw.co.jp/profile/62240 Thauros fucked around with this message at 14:42 on Dec 19, 2017 |

Better to put the Young Lions in front of the most hardcore fans instead of wrestling to silence in front of a cavernous Tokyo Dome filled with casuals.

I'm currently unsubscribed and I can't remember - Can you rewind live streams on NJPW World ? I've convinced a few friends of mine to watch WK12 but it's an 8am start and my friends want to meet at 10am so it'd be perfect if we just rewind the stream a couple hours back to the start when we do meet up.

I think you can open a stream and then pause it and then it will resume from wherever you paused. not sure how practical that is on chromecast or anything like that

I watched Dominion later that day under the assumption it went to a draw and they almost swayed me that Omega would win. It was really something else.

KungFu Grip posted:how many failed title shots does Makabe have He actually won the belt, in 2010. Held it for a solid five months too. Also ^ 5 to be exact. Failed three challenges, won, defended three times, lost, tried twice more Even the NJPW Dads have only 6-7 failed title shots each over their 20+ year careers.

I wouldn't mind if Goto was the one to beat Omega once Kenny wins the belt. He's too good to keep booking like he simply cannot get the job done under any circumstances.

Goto has great music and I always thought he should have been a bigger star than he is until I saw him in ROH a few years ago. He felt like just a guy then. Then I saw him in ROH this year and he tried as hard as he could to take no bumps in a match with the Briscoes and I fell in love again. (He ended up taking 1)

The GTR is cool but the reverse GTR into the GTR is one of the deadliest looking finishers this side of a Steiner Screwdriver. When he hit it for the first time on Shibata at the dome, I became  in real life.

People who don't like Goto: are you basing this on just this past year? Because I was utterly flat on him until I saw him vs Nakamura at Dominion 2015. The man just needs a reason to exist besides being like sixth on the totem pole of a fifty-man stable.

He's too good to keep booking like he simply cannot get the job done under any circumstances. I’d say that, except that Goto won the NEVER belt at WK11 and that did nothing for him. At this point, I think he’d be better off losing, getting his hair shaved off, and trying to reinvent himself sans hair.
