Chinston Wurchill posted:Wonder if they'll add Giulia vs. Trish Adora based on recent Stardom events? I don't see Trish taking the STRONG title off of her but we may be running out of time for alternatives. Can't imagine Sukeban will require Guilia to drop the belt once they sign her, they let Sareee keep her SEAdLINNNG title

This sucks, guess they'll have to pull the trigger on the Musketeers at the NJC, or finally give Zack the big belt Tanahashi going from the man who saved New Japan in the mid 00s to killing it in the mid 20s

The thought occured to me that they might put the belt back on EVIL to pad out the time until they need to pull the trigger on a new main event face, and that's the worst possible timeline

The worst thing about this whole situation is that Kaito will never get his win back e: Oh poo poo the thought just occured to me, does this news all but guarantee that Okada and Pals will be dropping the belts to Big Fuj and his Aussie Uncles at New Beginning? I've changed my mind, New Japan has been saved SG Bamboo fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Jan 19, 2024 |

Kaveman posted:AJ and Nak leaving allowed for Omega to step up to HW which made room for Ospreay (and Takahashi) and they could really cement Okada as the top guy. I really hope this isn't true. Naito got the roll call, it was a great moment, have him lose to that young (tbd) NJC winner and force the future. Or that fanfiction that got posted about Mox winning the belt and turning heel on Shota. That'd be pretty funny

Early show today, tentatively excited for this match even if Oka's last challenge for the belt was pretty dire https://twitter.com/njpwglobal/status/1748548402856841280

That transistion into the leglock from Kato looked vicious, he's got a couple of tricks even if Murashima looks the more comfortable in the ring

Tsuji pulling the twin magic was one of the best moments of the G1, if only for Gabe laying them both out and getting to scream gently caress you Tsuji twice in one sentence https://twitter.com/PuroresuFlow/status/1748701069239066729 A quick look on imdb shows that he's in episodes 4 and 10

Checking out the faction video New Japan put out a few weeks ago and saw a couple of interesting things: - Strong Style are still listed as separate to the rest of Hontai despite only having two members, hopefully means there'll be a new member soon - House of Torture are still listed as Bullet Club, meaning there are currently 16 active BC members - United Empire still lists Aussie Open, never really thought about them having 9 guys at one point

One other point of difference I didn't see posted about is the relative lack of in ring promos, unless it's something big it's usually only the winner of the main event that gets mic time in front of the audience. Instead, there are backstage interviews for pretty much every wrestler in every match, which are all posted the next day on the NJPW World Yotube page with subtitles. These have always been great for character quirks that can't be coveyed as easily during matches, the most relevant recent thing is that Gabe Kidd's constant chirping is starting to wear on David Finlay which ads another little wrinkle into the upcoming 5 vs 5 cage match

The Cameo posted:I really do wonder how in the gently caress a company that has run like two cage matches in its history is going to pull off a literal 5-on-5 cage match, that is a poo poo ton of bodies in a confined space. I have to imagine there'll be maybe three big spots starring everybody before 2 or 3 guys on each side escape the cage and we get lets say 10 minutes of 2 on 2 before the finish
