Pissed Off Sakuraba throwing the gi off was The Best

Oh God please don't tell me this means the other Gracie is gonna win the IC title. I don't think I can handle that world.

That was Awful. I'm glad Sakuraba can still get paid to do bad fake mma/wrestling...things though. His knees are going to combust any second.

How would you rate the njpw announcers in general compared to the wwe guys?

harperdc posted:[edit] holy gently caress this announcing. Trust me, it's hardly unbiased. What were they saying? I like to imagine it boils down to,"Man gently caress the Gracies."

Jerusalem posted:What were they saying? I like to imagine it boils down to,"Man gently caress the Gracies." it was along the lines of (and this is my interpretation more than anything, keep in mind) excitedly going "HE'S THE GRACIE HUNTER! HE'S THE ONLY ONE! HE'S GOT HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YOKOHAMA ARENA RING AND HE CAN'T GO ANYWHERE! YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE, YOU CAN DO IT SAKURABA, YOU CAN DO IT SAKURABA!!!" If you were watching you can hear the announcers go rapid-fire, it was hard to get everything but that was the gist of it. I'll try to listen closely to the last few matches to give examples but I'll try to talk about how good the NJPW announcers are in the regular thread later.

Thanks, that was pretty cool and just hearing them go apeshit went a long way to getting me interested in a match I was utterly hating up to the moment Sakuraba tore off his jacket and then pulled Rolles' over his head. Edit: Ibushi won an elbow-off!

OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! That loving chop was more of a concrete block dropped from a 5th story window.

At first Ibushi had to resort to headbutts to win the punch-offs, now Ishii is in the same boat!

thank god that wasn't the finish, 'cause Ishii was getting pinned ON HIS HEAD there
