They never were. Naito has always needed a ring general to keep him in check and SANADA is hopeless

Weird loving show, but better than last night's debacle at least even if that is a low bar to clear.

Stormy seas ahead for NJPW. I retract some of what I said earlier, they have talent but they have lost everyone who could lead a Big Main Event Style Match they are known for. Best bout: Taichi/Shingo Runner up: TAKA/BUSHI?? I loved that grime-off

Finally caught up with both shows and wow there were ups and downs! Mina vs. Mayu was the clear MotN for night 1 and I think I liked Hiromu vs. DOUKI best on night 2 but part of that was the thrill of DOUKI victory. Nemeth looked okay both nights but seemed way more over on night 2. His selling is still a strong point - in particular he made one of Finlay's forearm shots look like death. Booking is still questionable overall. Maybe this title run can get us back to the SHO who looked like a clear junior ace after his matches with Shingo, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I don't want Riddle around and even when trying to be objective he didn't look that great. I'm willing to see how things to with Nemeth but I'm not sure who they have for contenders that will mesh well with him. I don't think Tanahashi is it unfortunately. They'd better pull the trigger on some homegrown talent in NJC or things will look even more dire.

I saw a tweet that Shota is 0-5 in title matches since he came back, so clearly he needs to win the New Japan Cup to get that number into the Goto tier

Does anyone seriously think it's a coincidence that NJPW is in the shitter ever since Miho Abe left?

Yeah I'm not sure who you have win the Cup as Naito probably will and should retain. Maybe Tsuji or Ren? Definitely Shota should win his next title match and unless he gets the title shouldn't win the Cup

Maybe Taichi if they want to continue the LIJ/J5G series another cycle? He'll never win the belt but he's been performing at a high level in the upper midcard that it's not out of the realm of possibility that he could main event a smaller show, plus from what I could see he and Naito haven't had a singles match in over two years so it's pretty fresh. Or Hiromu so they can finally do the anniversary match that got called off by Covid e: Oh wait, Goto. He's already got the record for NJC wins and is the defacto ace of CHAOS now so why not have him lose another title shot SG Bamboo fucked around with this message at 02:01 on Feb 25, 2024 |

Hiromu is a good one. Weirdly njpws actual business has been good to start the year despite the discourse around them . Sakura genesis is a big test however. I'd buy a ticket to naito v hiromu
