Man, who would you put in the Devitt/Styles/Omega/White slot for Bullet Club now? Ospreay seems unlikely, unless they have the Empire take over. Lio Rush?

I dreamed last night that we were moving house and the only friend of mine with a lorry was Okada, and he came to help us move. I was really eager to show off my action figure display to him but he was more excited by my spouse's star wars lego collections. Anyway, I'm really stoked about Shooter vs Naito. No wrestler in the history of japan went out of his way to torment a ref more than Naito did Red Shoes back in 2016-17, Shooter needs to pay him back, with interest. My all time favorite ref bump in history was an LIJ tag where instead of breaking up a 3 count by diving on top of the wrestlers Naito just splatted with a double axe-handle onto Red Shoes instead. Was peak rudisimo. I know it's oldish news but I'm really excited about this Noah vs NJPW show again. The LIJ vs Kongo stuff is of course going to rule, but I'm also really eager to see the next chapter in Okada vs Kaito. Kiyomiya is going to unify IWGP, GHC, Triple Crown and AEW belts at WK 25 and THE LORE is already underway. I'm not able to cope with this jay white stuff, so I'm just going to pretend it's not happening. Sometimes dudes from new japan go to America and make their own companies, sometimes they just vanish like AJ Styles did 6 or 7 years ago and I never know what happened. Though Nakamura did show back up recently in Noah! I heard he moved to Florida and is surfing a lot.

Watch these matches and then decide: Kenoh vs. Nakajima - N1 Final 2021 Kenoh vs. Nakajima - NOAH The Best 11.28.2021 the answer is yes

At least for me the second match is hurt by being title for title so the time limit draw was real obvious going in but the N1 finals were fantastic, especially after seeing Kenoh have a MOTYC less than 2 hours earlier in the semis

i always meant to get into NOAH cuz its always a delight to see cool guys from somewhere else. for some reason no matter which promotion you follow wrestlers from somewhere else just seem better but i mean deffo enjoy all the NOAH stuff when I see it, same with STARDOM

I wasn't really following NOAH when I watched the second match, and I thought it was amazing, though by the end it became kind of obvious that it was going to end in a draw.

El Generico posted:You think it's worth watching Night 2 if I don't know NOAH at all? I'd say yes, assuming that the PPV fee isn't a noticeable chunk out of your wallet. I'm biased because I like the NOAH guys, but if you enjoy NJPW I think there's no real reason not to dig NOAH. By its nature I think this is kind of inessential, but some great stuff happens on these interpromotional events. If you're on the fence, check out the LIJ vs Kongo multiman tag from last year's WK night 3: https://m.vk.com/video-54361599_456265614?list=57c6f575172983a7ac (Skip to about 2 hours 46 into the video, getting an exact time stamp off VK while phone posting is not so easy) That was the best match of the NJPW NOAH show last year, and LIJ Kongo is the centre piece of this show this year. If that leaves you wanting a bit more NOAH, catch their 1/1 show, The New Year, specifically the GHC HW Title Match with Kenoh vs Kaito Kiyomiya
