And seems like Yoshi Tatsu is getting on the same joke level as him. So much for those "Bullet Club hunters" :francis:
I can't say I ever saw anything special about Yoshi Tatsu, whether it was NJ or WWE. Whether it was him dressing up like a Asian Spider man or cosplaying Triple H I just haven't been :leon: at him at all. Maybe something will happen in the future that'll resonate with me

Guy is average as hell but the fact he just came back from injury and it's already Captain New Japan status is kinda sad.

Only the ROH ones, I still hear the same dubbed themes for some NJ ones :francis:

Not really fam. He was mediocre in NJ, mediocre in the WWE, and got a few chances to show he had something else, and was still mediocre. NJ's still top heavy with heavyweight talent, adding in Sanada and soon Cole to the mix. Exactly whose spot should Yoshi be taking?

Still can't believe that out of the people available they chose fukking Sanada :francis:

From interviews it seems like Naito has been the one choosing the people for the squad. Probably putting his mans :manny:


Not even a whisper of Go doing anything in NJ is such a damn shame. On one hand, I can understand taking this approach with NOAH, trying their best to have it run and be sustainable and successful without it being a blatant NJ side project.


But having access to Sugi and Go and just…nothing of them on the big stage is disappointing.
So why not doing the same with Yoshi? Why hire the guy in the first place? You already have a Captain, why have two?:yeshrug:
But I'm asking fam...where does he fit? How? There's a list of super talented guys being potentially underutilized as is, why does Yoshi deserve more? And how? Does he join CHAOS and be the 6th most important member there? Or become the 5th man in LIJ?

Why is he in NJ? Because he went to the US and appeared on Raw's and Smackdown's, so he's worth a little name value. So you throw him in fun tags at the bottom of cards. That's it.

We've all seen plenty of him in both company's. Who is, and has ever, been thirsting for Yoshytatsu matches?

Can he even be decent after the neck surgery? Maybe they just decided to make him a comedy/filler guy because he can't do anything else physically.

Maybe. Let's see if they announce him for the G1 or not. Although they have enough roster to fill that shyt without surprises :mjcry:
