wait a sec, akiyama is BALD now??

oh fukking christ, only thing recent i did hear about and it may not even be recent is kenta starting a heel group

i always said kenta should be a heel, he wrestles like a heel, he seems kinda arrogant like he's that nikka or something

Yeah he's always seemed dikkish but he def WAS that nikka. You gotta be to come out to Art & Life and be fully japanese.


I wish i knew y'all during the Voodoo Murders storyline. has anyone even seen Taru in the past few years? and is Hirai ok now?

I haven't watched any puroresu since Misawa died, I missed alot haven't I brehs :snoop:

Well, yeah.

New Japan has been on an incredible run since then. Junior division has been hit or miss the last couple of years but there's still some piff. Heavy division blows any other company out of the water. Stacked as fukk.

Dragon Gate is probably the most profitable promotion in Japan and continues to have those sick spotfests (I can't get into that style anymore but it's not like the quality of those matches ain't the same as before).

NOAH can't catch a break. Very few classic matches since Misawa's death and if they don't turn things around fast, they might go under in the near future.

All Japan has bounced back in the last 2 years. Their new guys are getting better and lately they've been working with A LOT great talent from other promotions so their shows have improved.

DDT, Big Japan & Zero-One are a great alternative to the "big four". You are gonna find MOTYCs in pretty much every big show they have. Specially Big Japan.

New Japan's DOMINION is :ohlawd: brehs. The Osaka crowd is hot as fukk and the mainevent is a true MOTYC.

The show has been upped on XWT. Direct links with the full event (they guy who ripped it made a mistake the first time so the current links don't have the last third of the show) will be available later. Will post them as soon as I find them.
