The Unofficial NJPW Fan Club of America had nothing to say about Forbidden Door except a RT of a botch from an account well known for homophobia (multiple RTs despite their insistence that it was only once)

sometimes you think of something wrongly for more than half your life and want to tell your friends. and suddenly someone jumps out of a tree and starts screaming that you were right, and your friend slaps your mouth for being the tree screamer. it wasn't me.

They keep cherry picking this. Okada looked so happy next to Tony. And after this he fully turns into the hug. Also look at the 48 minute mark. Okada hugs first. Also what's with all these weirdos acting like men aren't allowed to show affection and emotion to other dudes?

I definitely think renaming someone "Madcap" and making him wear a hat is building them.

Theory is getting built, but is also a sex pest so no, not him.

They want to take heat off Vince being such a creep by tarnishing Tony

working in a pulverizer plant was probably a better job than wrestler unless you are a main eventer. good money and a union and stuff. no risk of a mountain falling on you. dunno

Seth Rollins is probably the last person who held the title and received a decent push during and afterwards. Same could be said about Randy Orton in 2003 or 2004. Otherwise, it's been a pointless title for a long long time.

yeah its very rare now that they use it to elevate anyone. there was a span of time from about 08 to 10 where jericho and mysterio were putting out banger matches over the IC title, then Cody won it and brought back the white belt. of course they proceeded to do absolutely nothing with him

Jericho and Mysterio weren't made by winning the title, tho. Orton might have been the last one where winning it meant WWE had plans for them. It kinda went from Belt that means you're going place ----> Belt for upper midcarders not doing anything -----> We've forgotten to book the belt on ppv for the last 15 months.

The fall of the IC title can be directly traced to Billy Gunn winning it from Eddie Guerrero in late 2000

Really want to know how they found the time and resources to deeply survey the rest of the world about whether they think a guy who wrestled in WWE has since retired.

Crazy how nobody in other countries watches New Japan either.
