Shingo WHY

The only thing that made me think it wasn't happening was it being such a small, taped show. Jimmyz, Susumu and the DG fanbase needed the win real bad.

Seems really weird that they'd have the title change happen on a taped show after months of building Shingo as this unstoppable monster heel.

Lots of other cool stuff went down at that show too. Supposedly it'll be out on the 25th. -Yosuke challenged Kotoka for the Brave Gate. Kotoka says if he wins Yosuke has to wrestle topless from now on. Get ready for Brave Gate champion Yosuke, hopefully. -Dragon Kid is now mentoring Eita. Not sure if this means DK is joining Over Generation or not. -Big R Shimizu has officially joined Monster Express. He and T-Hawk want to challenge for the Twin Gate, but they need to get a win first. -Susumu granted Shingo a rematch under the condition that Shingo leaves VerserK if he loses. So either a short Susumu reign, or VerserK without Shingo which is basically Mad Blankey again.

That angle for Yosuke seems very crass and not cool at all!

Yeah that'll make tape but probably won't be shown for a week or two. I'm watching the show from 2/14 and so far it's been a lot of fun. The undercard was nothing to call home about (I'm glad we don't have another singles match between T-Hawk and Shimizu on the horizon) but the six man between VerserK and Yoshino/Tozawa/Kzy was great!

I really have no idea what to expect from that Susumu/Takagi rematch. I can't imagine Takagi leaving VerserK this early in their run (and what do you do with him after that?) and it'd be weird to hotshot the title off Susumu on his first defense too. Stoked for the return of SUMOZ though. We need a PT version of

Takagi gets the Dream Gate back and goes all-in on the whole Mr. Selfish thing, leaving Verserk and totally going it alone as a dominant heel champion? If that happens though the whole formation of Verserk is really weird, as they'd basically just become Mad Blankey again.

Yeah, that was my issue - it'd be Mad Blankey 2. I feel like it might be a reshuffling of YAMADoi's position if Takagi wins the title back. Although, if he's out they could feasibly bring in Mochi to lead since he's unaffiliated now.

quote:Yamamura provoked Mochizuki and insulted him for being old. He was, what, 46? Next time in Kyoto he and Ishida could fight Mochizuki in a handicap match their combined age would still be lower than his old rear end. Since the difference was six years, Mochizuki suggested they add the kid they pull from the crowd to ring the opening bell. CIMA mentioned his lovely daughter just turned six, so she could join to make it 3-1. Everyone liked this idea and demanded GM Yagi make the match. He agreed to take it under advisement. Dragon Gate is good

I'd assume Cyber Kong would be on drums, not sax. If Kotoka was in that picture he'd almost definitely have a mic instead of an instrument.

Korakuen iPPV is tomorrow morning at 4:30 EST! https://secure.live.nicovideo.jp/product/3443 Looks like more of the shakeups will go down. CHAMPION GATE won't be on iPPV this year and will be a single TV show on the 25th. I'm thinking after the next few weeks we'll have: Dream: Shingo Twin: YAMADoi Triangle: MX Brave: Maria VerserK stays mostly the same: Shingo NEEDS to stay heel/in VerserK. Doi is the worst face in the promotion. YAMATO would be my x-factor and if any switching happens, it'll be around him (but I don't think anything is going to happen). MX is stable from now until they finally disband & Jimmyz have had enough drama over the years that they'll stay out of the unit shift. Eita finally wears down DK and he joins OG while Lindaman joins up with Fujii and maybe does an enhanced Fujii Heya with the bigger dojo kids that are doing Exhibitions right now. The YASSHI/Yoshino tag team is a one night thing. I see this Mocchy/Maria combination forming a new unit with Kzy/YASSHI/U-T. Kzy and Maria will have to talk Mocchy into it after Aagan Issou. When Hulk returns I see him being the #2 in the unit, Kzy/YASSHI/Hulk as a Triangle challenge team and U-T as their lost post.

poo poo, I almost forgot this was tonight. Anything happen before CIMA making fun of the rookies? edit: hahahaha Stalker taps out to repeated German suplexes edit2: KNESUKA! edit3: M2K!!! Cool show, though nothing really stood out aside from the moments above. Main event multi-man was a lot of fun as DG multi-mans always are. Kzy said no to joining MX and now Yoshino's sad.

YASSHI acted like YASSHI today (got dq'd for box attacks) so I don't know how's he's going to fit anywhere besides VerserK but I hate the idea of him being the #4 in a heel unit (unless there's some shakeups/Takagi loses).

Since the Shingo/YAMATO rift is still growing and both want each other out of the unit, I'm thinking Shingo wins the Dream Gate back from Susumu and YAMADoi leave VerserK. What I'd LIKE to see is YAMADoi starting a new unit with Mochi/Kzy/Hulk as a hybrid of Mad Blankey and Dia.Hearts. Maybe throw in U-T as designated unit jobber, call them Mad.Hearts or something.

Any early picks on whom DG is sending to the Super J Cup? Traditionally, they send a younger wrestler to NJPW tournaments unless it's a gaijin, like YAMATO in 09 and Hulk in the BOSJ in 07. For that I'm thinking it might be Eita, Kotoka, or Lindaman. I think they're protecting T-Hawk so he won't take an inter-promotional loss, Shimizu is too big, and the rookies are too unexperienced. Politically, I find this pretty interesting. I won't beat around the bush here: Tozawa's kind of an ex-factor. His WWE desire is pretty well known, and all his Best O Friends live in Orlando. It's happening after DG contracts expire at Kobe World and I guess somewhat concurrently with WWE's Cruiserweight Tourney. They might try to swing something with New Japan about him to try to keep in Japan and have him be the rep. (this is pure speculation, i don't have the scoops about this) NotQuiteQuentin fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Mar 3, 2016 |

Yeah, I'd predict Tozawa for WWE but not the Super J, if only so he can go hang out with Uhaa. If Ricochet's freed up enough to enter WWE's tournament we might just see some MX representation in WWE.  For the Super J: I'd really like to see Kotoka and Eita, but I wouldn't count T-Hawk out just for protection purposes; if he made it past a few rounds that's still a good showing. Pretty much everyone knows Kzy is underrated and he can stand to take a loss, so maybe him as well. Is there anything that precludes bigger DG names like Yoshino from doing it? Or is it just that top names don't want to take a loss in another promotion?

I think they see it as an learning experience and exposure for the young guys. It's not like CIMA wasn't in one (runner-up in 2000). Kzy would be a great representative and his look is so unique that I think it'd get over.

Have there been any reports of WWE interest in Tozawa? He's great, but he doesn't seem to be what they typically look for in foreign signings. I could see him getting invited to do the cruiserweight tourney but I don't think that would necessarily lead to him leaving DG.
