And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
I said Ospreay was winning the 2019 G1 and Shingo was winning the 2020 G1 i need to stop being ahead of the curve!

Shingo is the best wrestler in the loving world and only Fenix is on his orbit.

Okada having literally one of the greatest matches of all time and only losing after an hour+ against the other best wrestler in the world after just kind of (kayfabe) half-assing his way through the build still blows me away when I think of it

Shingo is an ace in that he has charisma for days and looks like a viable threat against anyone in the world. He has an aura of a badass and he can go over and put over anyone with no downside. He's like NJPW Nakamura in that way.

Better than Naito.
