So I went on New Japan World and saw a free match, Naito vs. Goto, I was like hey Naito's supposed to be a top dude, right? This might be cool. 30 minutes later, I think I might be a Hirooki Goto mark now. Also, the way NJPW lights its arenas is kinda strange, are they trying to make it look like the match is outdoors? 'Cause that's kinda the feeling I got from watching it. It's kinda cool. Definitely makes it feel different from WWE.

I feel a little disappointed that I watched this on VoD and not live 'cause the minute I saw the show was five and a half fuckin' hours, I could tell something was up. I figured out what the result of the main event was gonna be about halfway into the show. Still incredible.

So hey I got a question. Does the ref's count supercede the match clock? Like if the clock hits 0 when the ref is counting a pin, what happens.

remusclaw posted:It is a relatively common time limit draw finish for the timer to run out on a two count. It's always fun when they mistime it. Okay. Then I am going to say the match should've ended with Kenny hitting the One Winged Angel and time running out during the cover.

I was positive it was gonna be a draw before the match started, I can spot a finisher-near-the-ropes spot from a mile away, I said to myself "Kenny, you're too close to the ropes." when he had him up and I bit so loving hard anyway. I guess that means they built up his finisher pretty good? This was my first Omega match and when he hit it I thought Okada was just loving dead.

So is Tana vs. BIlly Gunn a singles match for the IC Title or some kinda multi-man?

handsome only face posted:they get more time to recover in that they're not wrestling 4-5 days a week every week, and when they are the multi-mans at smaller shows aren't as strenuous as singles There's less travel time too because according to my calculations, Japan is, *crunches numbers* *stares at results* *slowly takes off glasses* Smaller than America.

I wish I'd gotten on the train back in January after WK11, but I'm glad I got on now. It feels like Okada is doing something really, really special right now and obviously Omega and the rest of his opponents are all a huge part of that.

I sorta knew the story with Kushida losing at WK and then again in 90 seconds, then winning the BOSJ, but this was the first Kushida match I'd actually seen and I thought 4.75 was right on, and you coulda even gone 5.

How many times will Okada and Naito defend their poo poo before the Dome? Once at Destruction and once at KoPW?

That tag match definitely gave me the feeling that Suzuki vs. Big Mike is happening. Also they basically outright said Tanahashi's dropping to ZSJ on commentary which makes me think Tanahashi's probably not dropping to ZSJ.

So I've heard Inoki and Inoki-ism mentioned a few times, wasn't Inoki like, this incredible figure in Japanese wrestling? Why are there negative connotations with him? (and should I be asking this in the wrestling questions thread instead)

Finally got around to watching Destruction in Hiroshima and I'm pretty sure everybody in Taguchi Japan is great and I love them. I would in fact go so far as to say Taguchi Japan rules and Suzuki-gun drools. MJeff fucked around with this message at 18:46 on Sep 23, 2017 |

Roppongi 3K seem like they're good but Ricochet is my favorite Jr. and I wanted Funky Future to hold the titles forevaaaaaaah. Maybe Ricochet can punch Hiromu's lights out after a Jr. Heavyweight match next.
