And the camera angle kinda made it look like Saku's shoulder was off the mat.

forkboy84 posted:Generally as a rule keeping Saku to under 15 minutes is smart as I'm not sure he has the greatest cardio, but that could just be my bias against chain smokers. Oh I didn't know he's a chain smoker... I only caught the M's Alliance/Kaito & Inamura & Friends tag and the GHC Heavyweight title match, but both were amazing.

I was filthy tired during the main event after 4 hours sleep so I decided to rewatch it and Holy crap that top rope suplex by Go was great. If you told me Go and Sugi hate each other I'd believe you watching this. Just batter each other. It's 2 months away but I am so excited for return to Budokan. I just have full faith that NOAH won't disappoint me. Is Takashi Sugiura the most underrated wrestler of the 21st century? forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 00:48 on Dec 7, 2020 |

Oh hey, tomorrow morning (or today I guess) is the final show of the All Japan Tag League. There's 3 teams sat on 8 points, JIN, Nextream & Team BJW, JIN & Nextream go head to head, BJW have Violent Giants. If BJW wins then there's a playoff final but if they lose then Iwamoto & Lee vs Aoyagi & Miyahara is the defacto finals. I've seen nothing from this tournament because I'm just down on the company but the CC stunk & the finals were MOTY level so I will have to tune into this.

Watching All Japan and I have no idea what the gently caress is happening here. An old guy, Kenso? And a woman in a straw hat came out and said something and then Naoya Ogawa came out as he's meant to be doing commentary for Amazon Prime which is showing this? The woman started pushing Ogawa and then the Kenso bloke took over and Ogawa gave him the STO? And now they've just announced a match with Jun Kasai, Kenji Fukimoto and Masashi Takeda on the 13th. This promotion is extremely odd. forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 11:32 on Dec 7, 2020 |

And now TAJIRI is doing his best Sandman impression and smashing Izanagi and Irie in the head with a kendo stick. And Tanaka twats Izanagi with a chunk of table that broken off after he splashed Irie through a table. All this is not really why you come to All Japan but And Omori has just removed Izanagi's mask and trousers. I guess him and Koji Doi want to fight Purple Haze?

If Enfants lose to Yoshitatsu and friend whose name I forget but I think is from Lands End (Sai?) They finish with a losing record and would cement Ishikawa as worst booker of a promotion I watch. Might just relegate them to Zero1 "only watch the title matches" status if ET lose this. No point wasting time on booking that doesn't respect you

Mother fucker. Yoshitatsu pinned Arashi and Enfants Terribles finished with a losing record. All Japan have done a great job turning these guys into meaningless geeks after a hot debut It wasn't that long since I raved about their weekly no-fan TV but it feels like a life time ago

Go vs Kaito Kiyomiya, 4/1 Go vs Kazuyuki Fujita, 28/3 Go vs Kenoh, 10/8 Go vs Katsuhiko Nakajima, 22/11, featuring English commentary Go vs Takashi Sugiura, 6/12 Those are the ones I'd pick, but to narrow it done further I'd say the Kenoh, Nakajima & Sugiura matches are all top 5 of the year for me.

Might as well throw in the Saito and Marufuji matches and watch the whole reign. The Saito match is more emotional if you go in with the context that these are the last two living guys from Misawa's match and Saito is working through a lot of guilt from that. The post-match promo made me cry

forkboy84 posted:Another riproaring success of the Shuji Ishikawa era. It sounds like this one is actually on Tajiri. Rumour has it that Okada complained to Akiyama about Tajiri going over all the juniors and Tajiri got wind of it and buried him when he got power after Akiyama left. Tajiri is the head trainer at the dojo and part of the booking team. Speaking of Yusuke, I wonder if the choice of tie and handkerchief when meeting with CyberFight's Jun Akiyama is a hint as to his intended destination https://twitter.com/jun0917start/status/1336624451677384705?s=19

Tajiri the trainer, I don't think he's the greatest ever but fine. But Tajiri the 50 year old pro wrestler who has lost 0 singles matches to Junior wrestlers in 2020 blows & just makes me miss Aoki even more than already.
