The IWGP United States Champion *spoilers*

I clocked that too

I really enjoy the broad audience that shows up for NJ shows. From teenagers to salarymen in suits on their way home from work to families with young kids. The company does a good job of appealing to a bunch of age groups.

Pro Wrestling is different in Japan.

To most Americans it's carny shyt. To the Japanese, those workers are on the same tier as any other professional athlete, because the Japanese people have a better appreciation of the amount of work that goes in to becoming a pro wrestler.

Consider the people that come out of the NJPW Dojo or have spent time there

 

[Champagne Kudo]

Of course he was gonna get fed to the star. Give it some time before you say it.

Then again, it seems like he’s just been floating as US champ.

He had momentum until they fukked it up for Cody

 

[Legal]

Yeah, they've done nothing noteworthy with the US belt. Didn't even book it to be defended at the MSG show.

Maybe they'll give it more shine with Moxley as champ.

In fairness, I think that was more on ROH than anything. He was essentially on loan to them at the time, and their side of the show was a mess.

 

[CBoz]

Is he gonna do nothing with it for over a year like in WWE?

longest reigning U.S. champ since Rick Rude though

 

[THE 101]

You can tell Moxley having fun out there...had a swag and intensity I've never seen before (never watched his indie shyt before joining WWE)

His theme went kinda hard too

That's exactly why I respect it.
The way they use Japanese culture in general to inform the product is to me.
:
That's why I was about cats like Naito and 2014 Nakamura because they're fiercely individual in a society that values conformity, and people are drawn to them because of that.
