GEORGE W BUSHI posted:I always wonder what would've become of Hangman if he stuck around. Sugabayashi and Harold both named him as one of their favourite wrestlers. I don't see them pushing him as a top gaijin ahead of Jay White and that one fucker, so peaked at the US Title, probably.

Why would NJPW put an important singles title on a tag team wrestler like “Hangman” Adam Page??

I agree with the Super J Cast, the endless "speculation" around a business partnership between AEW & NJPW is incredibly boring. It's nothing to do with the "sanctity" of the WTL (laughing at the idea anyone thinks that, never mind the Super J-Cast guys) AEW having a working relationship with DDT or All Japan would be something interesting. It'd actually benefit the Japanese company, it'd get eyes on incredibly talented wrestlers that are less well known in the west.

Making a deal with CyberFight would definitely be far more beneficial to AEW than making one with NJPW for sure. They'd be far more amenable to sending people for extended tours and they've got a lot more young talent who'd get over quickly. Yuka instantly got over and I'm sure you could give someone like Takeshita, Kaito, Endo, MAO or Maki a match on Dynamite and people would be begging for them to come back.

i would also prefer to see ddt wrestlers do tours of AEW and vice versa, the companies have way more similar vibes tbh.

It's almost as if DDT is part of the formative DNA of AEW way more than New Japan was by way of an American promotion run by a psychopath that generally aped the DDT vibes at his Pennsylvania based lucha fed that most of the roster did their time in.

really about the only thing I'd want an AEW/NJPW partnership for is to exchange some of the lower card talent both ways I'd love for my beautiful boy Yota Tsuji to do his excursion with AEW

aew is the only place where my ultimate dream match of maki itoh and chris brookes vs mei suruga and baliyan akki can happen so i hope they do more with ddt

then again, if aew partners with new japan i can get my other ultimate dream match of mei vs okada, the first 10 star match, so it's a wash

I haven't watched RAW in months, I saw roughly 5 minutes tonight, I didn't even realize that "Lana goes through tables each week" wasn't a hyperbolic joke until tonight, and I feel like I can reliably predict that Lana vs Asuka is gonna end with Nia Jax putting Lana through a table.

Rarity posted:I guarantee he's never watched a LaSombra match Even if you haven't watched his CMLL stuff, the NXT title reign where he finally got to cut loose and work big-time main events should make it obvious how much charisma and star power Andrade has. But of course it's his fault that main roster WWE whiffed on the most can't-whiff Mexican wrestler of the modern era.

Andrade in NXT is a rare case of them actually doing a great job turning someone around after he struggled early, if he was actually a one-dimensional performer he wouldn’t have been able to adapt so well at all

Andrade's Takeover match with Gargano is still the best thing they've done since MitB 2011

Andrade was probably my favorite wrestler in the world for a while there. Shame what's happened to him. Give my beautiful boy his name back.
