Look at this dork Kenny Omega whining about Styles-Cena

[Buggsy Mogues]

In a post Bullet Club world and given that the promotion has grown despite losing stars I would say the upside is there

That's basically why Kenny is staying. WWE wanted him and he sees upside not only salary but in expansion to North America. So he's basically wants to part of what looks like the re-establishiment of New Japan as a viable option vs WWE

I mean if 100k is the only difference between WWE and New Japan for a guy like AJ who's a top guy in both (and you know he was seeing BC merch money) then New Japan is a legit alternative

Yea but that's 100k difference of WWE mid-card (which is what they brought AJ in as) vs. NJPW top guy, so that shows you how different the scale is

But also, that's only 100k downside, there's a lot more money-making opportunity aside from that in WWE than NJPW such as WM payout, live events, PPV, merch.

Omega staying in Japan legit?

Is that final? Did he say that?

 

[Adam3000]

Meltzer got them heated as fukk

Where are all the dissertations at breaking down why Cena/Styles was overrated?. Cena is a fukking slug in the ring and everything he does looks awful

AJ Goat carried him to a WWE MOTYC though again

I mean WWE dudes aint getting Armani ads like Devitt was. And most money making opportunities for WWE come when they literally pry away from WWE (Brock, Rock, Batista...and arguably for shyt that was less and less about their WWE past)

In fact its because of how big Rock and Brock got outside of WWE, they clamped down on contracts and did more 50/50 booking so people dont blow up unless its their choices

So why wouldn't go to Japan and see how much better you do?

Being a western wrestler big in Japan has more and more benefits as decades go by.

He's back for 1 year

Anderson didn't see royalties yet he was making $600K+ working half the schedule that WWE works. There's give and take. Nobody said NJPW is going to pay more especially to midcarders but you can make a very good living. It ain't "the indies" like some idiots here said

Aw damn that sucks

Was looking forward to him being in the E and seeing what all the hype was about

I dunno, why has nobody done it yet? Don't you think that question kind of answers itself?

 

[Larry]

man fukk all this shyt

I saw both matches... say what you want, call me whatever but I would watch Cena Styles over that Okada vs Kenny Dykstra shyt any fukkin day of the week

 

[swag johnson]

I cant see how anyone thinks the predictable ass matches wwe puts on are on the same standard of New Japan or even the indie scene. most of that cena aj match was just big move after big move with no transitions or suspense cause you knew they'd kick out.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

u enjoy racists winning?

That's @Da KKKing's whole gimmick. Stanning racists and shytting on black wrestlers.

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

but he's right

why compare the two


nakamura & rhoodes looked like they were tryna compete with the match more (but then again the move that TSC referenced it to I didn't really see)

Kurt Angle did
Hogan, Lesnar and AJ all did.
Bryan wants to, we know his contract situation
and Punk made overtures to try probably would if he goes back to wrestling
And Cody wants to and so do the Hardys


The fact we even know of New Japan is become western wrestlers have gone.

That answers that itself

None of these people you listed left WWE to go work specifically for NJPW full time.

Until someone actually does that it's a moot point

Cena/Styles was better and only the top 1% of neckbeards disagree

b-but a 60 year old nerd gave it 6 stars
