Nick wouldn't do that poo poo. Nate might. He doesn't give a gently caress. Nick wants to see the money first. Nate is going to school so he can look at the money proper.

I like to pretend YOSHI HASHI is illiterate because his gimmick makes much more sense that way. He's the big idiot you've covered for your entire life cuz he's a nice guy and means well.

NOAH died because of Ms Misawa's involvement with the Yakuza. Getting publically outed is a death kiss in business. They were well on track to establishing new aces but when the company went under AJPW picked up some and got wrapped up in that whole fiasco.

Gaz-L posted:Have New Japan ever had women's matches, even as one off attractions? I know the gender divide is even more pronounced in Japan than in western wrestling, but curious as to if it's ever even been tried. I think Chyna and Maria K. have been the only women to ever compete in NJPW. The women valets are a new thing too. AJPW has been doing women's matches as part their Indie Sleaze Expansion Effort.

dromal phrenia posted:It's really fun to hate Taichi. NJPW has a lot of 'cool heels' that its hard to hate even if its fun to boo their cheating. Even though Suzuki-gun is the most heel faction of all, people have a ton of respect for MiSu and he's quite the badass, and Zack Sabre Jr. is always going to get polite clapping for his submission transitions... but Taichi is just a complete rear end in a top hat and I hate him and want to see his face get punched. Taichi also has Miho Abe(did I get the name right?) hanging off of him which makes me want to punch him even more. He should be hanging off of her.

sleep with the vicious posted:FYI for new viewers, the tag league sucks so don't get excited NJPW traditionally uses tag matches as a vehicle to sell singles matches so their tag divisions have been pretty meh. The introduction of War Machine, KES, GOD have rounded that out. We actually have cohesive tag teams instead of "welp Tana's injured but still wants to work, who's gonna eat the fall to keep him over" tag teams.

For those of you that care, I found Tanahashi’s appearance in a Kamen Rider movie. He’s a gun wielding geneticist. http://www.jatoku.com/kamen-rider-heisei-generations-dr-pac-man-vs-ex-aid-ghost-with-legend-riders-english-subbed/

I figured he was under some kind of "do whatever you want, just don't go wrestle somewhere else" deal.

Gumball Gumption posted:I'm not a fan of Kelly and Callis though a lot of that is because my roommate and my girlfriend have started watching NJPW with me and neither of them would really consider themselves wrestling fans or smarks. I cringe a lot when I listen to them through the ears of a casual fan and they make Yujiro's entrances even more of a turn off. Japanese commentary is far superior. its like opera.

Your Boy Fancy posted:Kitamura being the third largest guy in a match is unsettling. I also appreciate Lance Archer’s unending mission to spit water every wrestling fan in Japan, one by one. Dude needs a Tokyo Dome entrance with a Camelbak and a Foy system so he can get the folks in the nosebleeds I like how KES had sorta match ring gear at one point and Lance has continued to get more batshit gimmicky with his stuff. And its important that Kitamura is that big. Get bigger Kitamura. Get Huge. Attain your destiny.

I'm not that big of a jericho fan, sadly. He's obnoxious on his podcast, his band stinks and all his cool moves were done by joshis in the 90s. That being said, I really look forward to him going 45+ against the Six Snowflake Omega.
