[1/4]NJPW Presents: Wrestle Kingdom 11

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

they are awesome, tonga and especially roa have gotten so much better this year. glad tonga got a good tag partner, i was sick of seeing him in just six man matches with fale and takahashi or whoever

Theyre like a gullier version of usos...who have toughed up this year themselves

Low key, the GoD (if they ever go wwe) should show up like some dudes who used to bully the usos like " remember us?"

I think I liked Tanahashi/Naito more than Omega/Okada. Main event felt like a PWG match in the dome. That kind of match has its place, but I don't feel like the dome on 1/4 is that place. Kenny being in those kind of matches is still fairly unique for the NJ heavyweight scene, but I don't really want to see it continue down the path of increasingly crazy spot fests and huge bumps for multiple reasons.

1. That can only last so long before dudes break down
2. That's going to limit who can make it to the main events and who can't way too much
3. NJ is a reprieve from that type of stuff that is prevalent damn near every where else in the world

All this 6 stars, literally greatest match EVER type of talk will die down in the next few weeks and people will realize it was an amazing spectacle and spot fest, but not some transcendent match like Okada/Tanahashi last year, or Nakamura/Ibushi the year before that. Kenny showed some flashes of brilliance with his selling and movements, and Okada is Okada. But let the dust settle before it gets a literal greatest match in the history of the profession type of tags. The prematch promo with English subtitles and talking about expanding, then the match itself felt like it was vying for the American audience as NJ continues to make in roads here, but I don't watch NJ to get something made for Americans, ya know?

Its crazy how the Goto Shibata match is on some footnote shyt now...i LOVED that match, and went to bed happy...it was legit A-, maybe an A itself

I loved the match but this is a fair assessment

When Goto goes into mode Reminded me of how he killed Nakamura to take his IC belt a couple years back. The Shouten Kai will always be dope. Loved that reverse GTR also. Then did the regular one just to be sure. Dished out some of Shibata's medicine

I loved that match. Shibata vs okada this year would be epic

Yeah it was pretty good. The Goto winning a big match is always a rare treat

Caught one of the Young Bucks doing a swanton bomb off a balcony and banged his head on the concrete back in April. I don't think he's been in action since

Their CONSTANT talking during their match and the main event was so fukking distracting. Why the fukk were they out for the main event at all?

The same reason they do everything: to get themselves over.
