I feel like someone is missing from the card

The one Asian dude who was in NXT super ripped but didn't pan out

Kenta?

Muto with the just frame shining wizard

 

[Arrogance.]

Is Naito vs Tanahashi

Orton vs Cena equivalent?

Closer to Orton vs Cena in match frequency. Much closer to Cena vs Roman pre bloodline as far as Tanahashi being the measuring stick that Naito was trying to chase down

Damn I forgot all about KENTA too

I googled it

It was Kota Ibushi

 

[DaylitoJames]

So he's the Bray Wyatt Fiend version of New Japan.

Kota got injured I forgot at what event vs Okada. Think it was 2021 G1 final. After that her had some incident with the company executives and I think was released or quit. Haven't heard anything about him lately.

I watch yearly and in this spot is always that little guy who got his neck broken

Damn I forgot all about KENTA too

It was Kota Ibushi

Ibushi had a lot of shyt going on last year...didn't he pretty much have a breakdown or was it Ibushi being Ibushi when he was calling out some random person in the NJPW office?

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

Mutoh Been wrestling for 38 years….and with the way he’s walking now, it shows. still

 

[DaylitoJames]

Time Bomb Hiromu needs to be upgraded to the heavyweight division since he won the Best of the Super Jrs Tournament 4 damn times... nothing left for him to do in that division

 

[Killah Ray]

Timebomb!

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

First Pyro of the night?

 

[DaylitoJames]

First Pyro of the night?
