Essential Japanese Wrestling Discussion/News

Uncle Dave said Okada needs to have a 12 min match to keep his matches honest.

12 minutes and 1 rainmaker, maybe even win with something weird like a particularly good dropkick. When you're having 30 minute matches with the 3rd dude in LIJ just to have it

A week before the NJ LBC show, Liger is gonna wrestle in the small city I grew up in. shyt is random as hell.

Taichi vs Naito

Another infallible plan by Gedo

From what I've read, it's continuity from a match they had in TAKATAICHI PROMOTIONS. I'll check it out later

Got my NJ LBC ticket. Box office was given a limited amount.

JR and Barnett calling it.

fukk, had another chance, no idea box office had tickets.

 

[Scottie Drippin]

Thanks breh

Kitamura still needs a lot of work. Though I gotta wonder if having to work like a young lion is affecting his performances, a dude his size wrestling like that just looks plain weird He gotta get better at strikes exchanges and it seems his cardio is complete shyt still. The pieces are there for him to be a player in 18 months or so, but they gotta give him a character that suits him and be as simple as possible in the ring, dude could be a breath of fresh air for the current main event style.

But the holes are there for him to be complete shyt if he gets a major injury though, so I'm still not completely sold on him.



I haven't been able to seed more than 0.3 or 0.4 on any torrent I've used from there in YEARS breh, shyt is frustrating as fukk. Having to wait for some freeleech and build that ratio up just so I can drain it all out in 3 months At this point I try to use it as little as possible and only when it's 100% necessary

Word? I only use it once in a while, and it seems like as long as I stick to the popular downloads my seeding is fine afterwards

Give a shot. Cats were getting tickets still.

 

[Super Cheech]

Give a shot. Cats were getting tickets still.

You drive down to box office? If you might have to try it.

 

[MenacingMonk]

You drive down to box office? If you might have to try it.

Yeah, I went. But people are buying on the phone when they call the BO.

 

[Super Cheech]

Yeah, I went. But people are buying on the phone when they call the BO.

Scored some tickets, thanks for the heads up breh. They're the nosebleeds but better than not going.

Yeah, those were the only ones they had. I was trying to get middle bleechers, but no go.
