This Go Shiozaki vs Fujita match. :laff::laff::laff:



First 30 minutes made it a modern classic for these troubled times.:wow:

shyt has 'DDT Fukkery' written all over it :dead:

Fujita's Muta Mist spot with a mouthful of hand sanitizer :why:.....:russ:

Takagi was definitely somewhere backstage in an office like

I can only imagine the emotions Ibushi went through watching this. A mixture of :ehh:..:dwillhuh:...:gucci:...:ohhh:....:mjlol:...:banderas: and that's just the first half


I'm watching this right now.

This is fukking genius. :laff: :laff: :mjlol: :wow: And it even made psychological sense per the storyline. :banderas:

(That's the difference between this and DDT. They would have just done it for the fukkery, NOAH did it because it was logically appropriate...and for the fukkery, I suppose. :yeshrug:)

If there's one wrestling related silver lining to this COVID-19 ordeal, it's that major companies are starting to explore the conceptual limits of what constitutes a match and how one structures a match in certain situations. Sometimes it works, sometimes it results in tedious bullshyt, sometimes it results in interesting non-matches, but at least a good portion of the attempts are interesting.

:dead: that Kushida left NJ because there was nothing left for him to do only to do absolutely nothing for a year+ in NXT and now is in a hastily thrown together WWE BOTSJ

Every major company went except BJW because they don't give a fukk. Tanahashi offered a free air guitar to all representatives.

Big Japan probably didn't went because Kojika is already a walking corpse and couldn't risk going to that meeting :dead: besides, they gonna run shows anyway :dead:


I hope every promotion gets all the help they can though.




PS: Of course Zero One didn't go either...and Dragon Gate still getting shunned as a puro promotion after all these years @The Rainmaker :russ:
