Essential Japanese Wrestling Discussion/News

[Honga Ciganesta]

That ten man tag was nuts Gotta say though the commentary almost ruined it for me. Any time someone says they can't get into puro because of the commentary I'll just point out that ROH has more incomprehensible and nonsensical commentary than any Japanese company. Like even in Japanese they give a better feel of matches than these goofs.

The way Japanese commentators go crazy for a lariatooooo and the boma ye

Edit:ACH vs Naka-Motherfukking-mura

Please, God - don't ever let Vince get his hands on him.

Good show. I was actually surprised to see Naito there as i dont think he has before. They need to get Kota vs ACH poppin off for next time. Maybe even a tag against the Bucks too

Okada and Nakamuras matches were kinda disappointing to me...Cedric whateverthefukk and ACH are the drizzlin shyts to me. Spot wrestlers pretty much. I know thats kinda ROH's style but they fukking suck at selling, and they take every bit of seriousness out of the matches. You could tell the crowd wasn't connected. Tanahashi vs Elgin was better than both and i can't stand Elgin's matches. Naito vs Lethal was the show stealer other than the main event. Good show overall. Got me kinda hype for BITW where I guess Jay Briscoe will be fighting Jay Lethal (2 people I said should be fighting Nakamura)...also got me wanting a singles match between Styles and Jay Briscoe. Did they not tape the War Of The Worlds shows? I gotta see The Briscoes vs CHAOS.

I was there and the crowd was incredibly hyped for Okada vs Cedric and ACH vs Nakamura. Crowd was loud all night, except for the tag match with the Addiction and Naito/Lethal. ROH's audio production just sucks.

Does Suzuki plan on fighting again? He looks like hes in Pancrase shape again.

Finn Balor on Jericho's Stoogecast today.

He said that NJPW had to set up a hotline, manned 8 hours a day to handle irate calls about him cheating to win when he first turned heel and started The Bullet Club.

 

[Konnan]

Its ridiculous thàt none of the Bullet Club guys get royalties for the Bullet Club merch sold

New Japan caking hard off those boys
