That BDK Cibernetico match in Chikara

Man, Yehi is so underrated it pisses me off. Motherfukker is the most compelling performer in the US right now and he only get to work in front of the mutes that go see EVOLVE and WWN shows

They fukk with him at La Boom but for some reason cheer Jaka and dikkinson heavy. In Evolve he has no storyline ever and no one watches FIP (though I may start).

I admit that i didnt "get" him at first but his style is so different i got really into him at the latter part of the year.

fukk, I just don't get the Adam Cole thing. I been knowing of him since he was doing roh dark matches with kyle O'Reilly. He just dumb Bland and super indy to me

It's the catchphrase.

I've been sleeping on the Joey Ryan-Candace LeRae tag team big time.

I just saw their match with the Young Bucks from PWG Eleven back in 2014. Amazing match.

It's impressive how the Young Bucks can mix comedy and brutality in their matches while delivering a top notch performance.

The PWG shows were some of the funniest shows I've been to. I need to stop being stubborn and go back.

Does anyone else not feel PWG as much anymore? As I've grown older, I'm more of a fan of psychological matches as opposed to finisher near-falls all the time.

From yelling kids at Chikara to conquering Reseda

That makes no sense, you love current New Japan and think Okada is having an all time year

Okada doesn't do pins as soon as the finishers happen. Plus, it's part of the storyline with Okada. His rainmaker is getting weaker because he's getting burnt out from all these matches.

I don't know, breh. It feels like if you watch one PWG show you've seen them all. I used to love it as a kid, but I'm older now.

I agree. I went from watching every show to just a couple every year, and it's mostly because I love the Reseda crowd and make every typical indy spotfest match waay more fun than any other promotion. But my point was that New Japan's current style is based on high spots and nearfalls just like PWG - and if you talking about structure, puro shows have had the same formula for decades - so loving 1 so much and being about the other is funny to me.
