Official NJPW G1 Climax 30 [9/19 - 10/18] thread UPDATE: MATCH CARDS SET!

[krackdagawd]

White-O winning this whole shyt.

 

[The Rainmaker]

Cobb vs Shingo
Great match. Cobb seems more motivated and could keep up. Shingo getting no respect. No respect at all.

Okada vs Yujiro
I don't want to see a match between these two ever again.

Taichi vs Suzuki
Yesterday, Taichi tweeted one of them was going to die. That was a huge mistake. Suzuki went for the killing from the beginning. I thought they were doing in jest, but they built the intensity up. Black Mephisto = Death. Huge pop from me. Like a (real) young lion, seems like Taichi is considering the beginning of Taichi-Gun.

Ishii vs Ospreay
This is like watching a bulked up bullied kid trying to confront his bully. Ishii isn't selling any of that. That headbutt in the corner That piledriver at Milano praising Ospreay. Another great match.

White vs Ibushi
Fukk you, Gedo

I'm not even sure why Ospreay decided he needed to put on 30 pounds not even in a clean bulk if he wasn't going to change any of his style to take advantage of his bigger size. He wrestles exactly the same except his cardio seems worse and it seems like he feels his bumps and flips a lot more, which seems not good when his body was already so fukked up before adding the weight but now he's still doing flips to the floor and landing on his feet and shyt but 30 pounds heavier. He doesn't look more intimidating or like he should be taken more seriously, because he already was basically worked heavyweight size anyway and didn't look small in comparison to any of the NJ main eventers to begin with. He doesn't even look like he put on a bunch of muscle, he just looks like he hit 30 and started putting on weight. I would say his look has suffered because he no longer has any cuts and so doesn't look as in impressive of shape. Balor thought he had to be bigger for a while too and instead he started cutting and trying to be as lean as possible and his look improved 10 fold because he looks like he's in fukking insane shape 24/7.

Tbh he just looks like he got on the gear and had a lot of milkshakes. He should have asked Ibushi for tips on how to bulk up, not lose speed or cardio, and improve aesthetics and also how to integrate the added size into your ring style.


EDIT: at White-O trying to get the crowd to spread corona with chants

 

[TheGodling]

To me the worst part about Ospreay is him doing this whole shytty 'Look ma, I'm a heavyweight now' shtick. Smiling like a goof for recognition because he can beat Ishii in shoulder tackles now, it just looks embarrassing especially since he already started wrestling heavyweights last year.

 

[TheGodling]

King Of Pro Wrestling about to win the entire G1.

Spoiler

But seriously, SANADA and Tanahashi still at 0 points.

Night 3

Bruh Taichi went over the GAWD
I think theres more story here, Tachi looking at Suzuki after the match like,
I should be running this shyt it should be Tachi-Gun
Will i be changing my name to Tachi-Gunna soon



fukking Ishii/Osperay was incredible, Ishii constitantly putting on classics just to do the job get this man a IWGP Intercontinental title at least
Osperay maybe heading to the finals


Jay White trying to spread corona
Ya need to stop doubting his abilities to put on a good match, im tired of Gedo tho
way better match for Ibushi than Okada

by the way where the fukk is The Rainmaker finisher at? now we pushing "The Money Clip" submission as Okada's finisher, nah that aint it



on to night 4

 

[Bryan Danielson]

I like how White-O is weak to strikes all these nikkas are superman in every category, makes him a more interesting character. This whole g1 whenever he gets into a strike exchange he gets The more I see of White-O the more I like him.

Best heel in the biz.


As far as Ibushi we stay on demon time

 

[Tanahashi Coates]

That's the part!

What dark universe are we living in where CJ Parker hits harder than KENTA

Ibushi really is demonic, straight up terrifying, sometimes.

And Jay White...he can stop improving, but he refuses.

When he becomes a face again, watch out for that run.

 

[stro]

Naito needs to come up with a new finish that doesn't have to depend on his opponent being strong enough to base and carry his shifting weight. Especially as it doesn't appear he's planning on getting rid of that quarantine flab anytime soon.

 

[TheGodling]

That's the part!

This moment works better in gif form because you're not missing the thud sound on Ibushi's forearm that left Ibushi like
