@MightyHealthy do we win something for this AEW/NJPW thing? :lolbron:
I've been convinced something was up since the Bucks and Cody discussed New Year resets like they were a done deal.

AEW's fanservice and wheel spinning would make even more sense, now. As would writing Cody out early :lolbron:

Then NJPW seems ready to leave AXS, with no eagerness to establish a landing spot anywhere else.

Most importantly, facing 2020 without a TV deal (a major regression and setback for any other venture), they made this announcement quite confidently and abruptly.

Why have a TV show when you can increase the prestige of IWGP titles by featuring and defending them on AEW TV?

I feel like they're gonna have to play the main events by ear. That also means if the crowd is booing everything that White-O does, then :mjgrin:

As much as I want it to happen, I don't see Ibushi winning Day 1. First G1 Climax win and he is against Okada :lupe:

I don't think Okada has lost to any G1 winner has he? @Jmare007 @The Rainmaker

I'm just here for Toru Yano and Orange Cassidy combining to form The Fukkery Powers :mjgrin::feedme:

The potential roster of playable characters on 'AEW: No Mercy' would be :whoo:though

random as hell, but Yuji Nagata was in the AKI games a couple times, I think

He wrestled in WCW back in the day, so that was par for the course.

Check the roster AKI snuck onto Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 :wow:

The way the Bucks and Omega were talking recently it sounds like it's not a given with the way they felt they were treated.

fukk how they were treated :mjlol:

That partnership could decide their companies future for the next 3 years. :camby:

You don't get treated fairly when you do business wuth King of Sports :gucci: that's why they are KOS...

You either join them like Kota or MiSu or get used until you break like Sasuke and Takayama :ufdup: :mjcry:

On a Knife Edge: Jay White’s Double Gold Dash 【WK14C】 | NEW JAPAN PRO-WRESTLING

–What are your goals for after the Double Gold Dash?

White: When I become champion, what I’m going to do is go on a worldwide tour, starting in Japan, rubbing this in everybody’s face. In the wrestler’s face, the company’s face, President Meij’s face, Chairman Sugabayashi’s face. I’ll flip his table over while I’m doing it. Then I’m going to go over to America. I’m going to march into the LA Dojo, slap Katsuyori Shibata right in his face and rub the belts in his face too. I’ll show all his students what a real champion looks like.

:damn: :damn: :damn: :damn:
