I would have Goto win the G1. The story is there, he's been mocked as a choker by opponents. People don't think he'd win, but they still like him. Have him announce if he doesn't win the G1 it will be his last. He wins, it's this huge moment, and then people start going "Ohhh he's gonna be the first person who loses the briefcase" and play off that by having him beat someone the fans would expect to be in the main event. The champion scoffs at him for being a choker who is going to choke on the biggest stage.


BUT: His friend Shibata believes in him and wants his friend to become IWGP Champion, something he will never be able to do. Goto wins, he and Shibata cry in the middle of the ring.

I LOVE this storyline and want to see it, but like most redemption storylines of its ilk, there’s not really anywhere to go but down after he wins it. If you want him to have more than a one-defense reign, what do you do?

You put him against people he's fought and failed against. White, Okada, Tanahashi, Naito, maybe even Omega if they can mend that relationship, with every defense being the one that could prove that Goto isn't worthy.

Okada and Goto are stable buddies, so swap him out for Tanahashi, and use people like Suzuki, ZSJ, Moxley, Archer and LiJ guys like Sanada and Evil as Challengers of the Month, and then have the match against Shingo or Ibushi at Destruction.

Then flip Okada and Jay so Okada is challenging him as the winner of the NJC instead. The story of "Goto trained as hard as he's ever trained to beat Okada, Okada beat him anyway and Goto joined Chaos." isn't something you should shy away from in this hypothetical.

I'd prefer to make Okada the G1 winner to challenge Goto at the Dome Show, and make that the story - Goto was a serial choker and no matter how hard he trained or up-skilled, he just couldn't win the big one, joined up with Chaos, has now won the belt, is going through the people that he's been beaten by, and Okada now stands as the final boss for him to overcome.

That guy is literally just making poo poo up along with not knowing Haruka and Riho are different people. Kenny had a few matches with/against Riho in the early 2010s because they were in the same promotion that did mixed age/gender tag matches. Kenny travelling halfway across the world to see somebody who lives in Japan makes no sense because he lived in Japan for the past decade and how the gently caress would that person know what Kenny was doing in his free time. He might be referring to when he returned to DDT recently to have a tag match with Riho, but in that case she's his co-worker and they're returning to their home promotion for a special match and she's now 23 years old.

for some reason I forgot kenny lived in japan for a while. I thought maybe some trolls had brought up him travelling to Japan a long time ago after meeting Riho but it's just trolls lying entirely

That's true as well, the poo poo about Kenny and Riho is definitely way over the line. It's where they go from being annoying curmudgeons to committing libel. And it's hard to address that stuff without inadvertently giving them a bigger platform. Cornette is basically working from the same playbook as alt right grifters where pushing back against their bullshit just gets it out there more. Ideally people would see it and be mortified that Cornette was saying those things, but there's likely to be just as many idiots going "hell yeah, Corny!" because that's the world we're in right now.
