Remember that fire ass match that KOR had with Darby where he showed everybody just how much of a killer he was….


Wtf happened to that guy? :francis:
Being out for two years because of a complication from neck fusion surgery that saw him facing the chance of being permanently paralyzed, yeah that guy probably isn't coming back or if it does it's going to take a long time. He still has yet to regain the muscle mass and tone that he had before the injury, for example.

I wonder if 10 years from now this is gonna be seen as the more influential match from the era and not Okada vs Omega. I've always perceived the latter as the one that truly shaped the style we see nowadays more than Ospreay vs Ricochet, but it is true that the Omega match happened 8 months later.

I put them on the same level for different reasons.

I think Ospreay-Ricochet took PWG style and made in mainstream. That style is all over the place now and even in WWE to some degree.

Okada-Omega obviously had major influence for match style but also helped escalate New Japan. And if we’re honest, is likely one of the feuds that paved the way for the eventual creation of AEW.

I really wanted Fight Forever to be good, but that price, the half baked season pass, and the lack of time in the oven made the game a bust. Too many ideas but all fumbles, especially catering to the whole "No Mercy" wankfest. They should have went full Here Comes The Pain since that;s a Magnum Opus of a wrestling game that's sadly taken for granted.

I mean who wouldn't want Moxley to jump off of a helicopter with a barbed wire bat onto the Bucks :ehh:

Maybe, But that also applies to others:

Okada
Roddy
Shibata
Suzuki
Ishii
RUSH
Etc.

Honestly a damn shame that Jungle Boy is holding a title over any of those guys.
