Essential Japanese Wrestling Discussion/News

It was a typical AJPW show, not bad but kinda underwhelming to the fact that it was suppose to be their first live show on the stream. The tag matches were meh, the JR match exposes what's wrong with that division, the Nagata tag match was old school flames, the Bodyguard/Zeus tag match was straight, and the main event was. All in all, it was alright but slow most of the event.

So AJPW shows are now done on Puroresu Dream?

Checking out DDT Judgement now. fukkery here I come:

Just got finished watching DDT Judgement 2018 and all in all, it was a pretty good event. It's not touching last years but it still was worth a watch. The HARASHIMA tag match was flames. The main event was good as well despite the anticlimatic ending. I'm still trying over the fact that out of all the promotions that Muta could retire from, he decided to retire on DDT.

You are crazy if you think Muta is really retired

Konosuke Takeshyta vs Shuji Ishikawa - DDT Judgement Day 2018, KO-D Openweight Title match

As back and forth a match as you are gonna get. For that reason this felt a little longer than it was as it didn't have much of a story arc besides "your turn/my turn". Thing is, the strikes and action was good enough to keep me watching. The bomb throwing of the last 3-5 minutes was pretty good too. @Don Ibiza Ibrahimovic you need to get your boy out of DDT ASAP and take that belt off him, he needs at least a year worth of free lance work to get to next level. At this point he's just a generic "go-go-go" style worker when he could be so much more.

My dog done got lapped by the AJ young brehs

This title run was not the wave, but with finally permanently losing Kota I think they reached hoping to strike gold but Okada's, Akiyama's, and Angle's only happen once in a blue moon for a reason.

Someone please let that boy go on an excursion (unlikely) or spend some time with Papa Jun (unlikely).

He can still be so much but man needs guidance.

Really another case of a guy who was better when he had more freedom. He and Endo were really cooking as Love Motel RIGHT up until Kenny and Ibushi left and they had to fill their roles. He needs time out of the top spot so he can cook with some new ingredients

Kento vs Doering was underwhelming as fukk

All Japan for booking Saitama and making it impossible for them to have any sort of decent atmosphere to work with
