Been watching Nakamura matches for a few days now, guy is brilliant. He wrestles so stiff & yet the biggest pops he gets during matches are for "moves" where he don't do shyt. Crowd is quiet when he knees the hell out of somebody & erupt when he puts a foot on them in the corner & kinda Hulks up :wow:

Also saw some DDT fukkery that I can't een comprehend:pachaha:

like this is the only way to keep up with the story?

Yeah, pretty much. It's either that or you pay for a subscription to NJPW World. You can check out NJPW's new show on AXS TV on Friday at 9 pm though if you want to watch their show in English commentary. It's a 13 episode series and it recaps all of their top feuds with matches, promos and post match analysis.

I guess people on twitter translate stuff but mostly, you wont find translations unless something important was said. Most of the time they don't say any groundbreaking stuff though, promos are not a big deal in puro (for the most part) they are mostly challenges and announcements.


Oh, Meltzer saw an episode of the AXS show and it seems it's great. Dude went as far as saying it was the best TV episode ever :dead: he has to be trolling at this point :heh:

Suzuki Gun invaded NOAH. Hopefully this helps NOAH pick up some business.

Well, going by today's American standards, it was a hell of a call from Ranallo and Barnett. Even if it wasn't live, it felt natural and Ranallo added a lot of excitement. Barnett was OK.

I'm looking forward to more of this. Hopefully the show will be successful enough for them to add more recent stuff.

I fukked with it too. :blessed:

If you needed to find out the motivation behind the match - the bumpers at the beginning and end of the show can fill in the gaps. No need for drawn out goofy sketches.
:salute:for adding subtitles to the piff.

Amazing what you can accomplish when the announce team isn't burying the talent, shilling hard lemonade, making bad jokes and teaching people how to use the internet. :mjpls:

I've always liked Ranallo. Some people hate him when he calls boxing fights but I think he's pretty damn good.
