nice job wasting hour time
NO HULKSTER TRIBUTE? FUCK YOU TRANNYHASHI
gabe officially withdraw from G1
Can they do Moloney vs ishimori or something
>>18352848they always do it a few hours before, and if it wasn't today, it'll be the next day
>>18352848Tonikan made the call
Did Sanada let Gabe borrow some shorts?
he's walking on it so unlikely he's gone for too long right?
>>18352850>Western fans turn on him for his AEW appearance (he's clearly gotten to)>Has to pull out of the G1Gabe mental health crisis incoming
>>18352862they didn't specified his injury?
>aiming for Forbidden Door
lmao you too, nigga?
>>18352869he said he hyperextended it
>>18352872>Forbidden Door in the UK>Only UK guys left uninjured is ZSJKek
>>18352868waste of time for him to clarify he withdrawing when was clearly he couldn't continue with whatever kind of injury he got on his knee
haven't watched japanese wrestling in like 10 years but I woke up early today by chance and saw this
what am I in for brahs
So was Gabe swearing vengeance on Takeshita there?
So can we get some replacement matches now that we know he can't make it?
>>18352875might take a month for recover if he doesn't do something stupid meanwhile
>>18352884Conveniently a storyline he can continue in AEW...
>>18352883How do you like tournaments?
>>18352883cheer for taichi and only taichi
>>18352880>PAC dead toodamn
oi bruvs are gonna have to settle with zack and maybe drilla moloney lol
>>18352892unironically I have never watched a wrestling tournament except brawl for all
>>18352900Jeong Mogs Li can wear his Newcastle United hat.
>>18352872what did i miss? who??
>>18352903If you enjoy it in other forms of fiction you will get the jist of this. Tanahashi is having his final tournament so his match should be good.
>Aaron Wolf on young lion duty
Pay your dues, fat fuck.
>no Naito
>no Goto
>no Gabe
GRIM TO THE GRIMMEST 1
>DON'T DO A HOGAN TRIBUTE HE'S BANNED FROM MY SHOWS

>>18352880>>18352900It's our time Sabian bros
>>18352913I wonder what faction he will join. Hopefully it's not just Hontai
>>18352913Should be how his debut match is set up, some prick should fuck with him while he's on duty
>>18352918>Your Mind? Kevin Nash>Tony Khan? The Summer of 1992
here's hoping yoshi gets slammed on a bunch of chairs in that singles match. give us something
>>18352935yoshi will get another quick roll up win and you will like it
Big Jag vs Jado finna be lit
Jado is gonna pin Harley with a leg drop of doom as a tribute to the Hulkster
>>18352954Honma should take Gabes spot and bring back Honmania in honor of The Hulkster.
V/r,
- HH
i want to do lewd things to zack as a birthday present
>Zack flip selling for a Jado lariat
>"Stay away from the crowd shots tonight"
ELP demoralised by NJPW's attendance
>>18352695 (OP)Why is there zero interest in the G1 this year?
>>18352994Why are you here?
>>18352984I laughed so hard.
>>18352998Because I saw that there's zero threads in the catalog about anything that's happened so far
>>18352998To laugh at Grim1 Crimax.
Honma should leave NJPW and go get some stem cell like Naito too
another worthless tag
these shows really fly by with a match missing every time
>>18352994>The younger generation are generally underwhelming>ZSJ is a meh world champ (the G1 would instantly be better if Goto was champ)>Gabe Kidd out injured already>The winner seems a bit obvious >Tanahashi is a little sad to watchThe only thing going for this G1 is SANADA's outfits and a possible Taichi win
>>18353031>complains about NJPW>loves Taichievery time
Walker what the fuck are you talking about tastes for Takagis?
>>18353036I'm not complaining. I'm watching every night, but I can see why others aren't and why the discussion is pretty dead.
>Chris joking that Rocky is gonna poach Daiki Nagai
Walker gonna be doing the rest of the G1 solo
>>18353031>>The winner seems a bit obviouswait who is it going to be? its not Tana is it?
>>18353031Tsuji, narita, umino, etc never had a chance with gedo's shitty booking. look at what tony khan did with swerve strickland in 2 years. or toni storm.
>uses BUSHI's rewind kicki'll say it again
>>18353058
>>18353041a joke that takagi sounds like takis? no idea
>>18353075itโs taichi
>>18353081>look at what tony khan did with swerve strickland in 2 yearsWhat? Turn him babyface and have him get beat up every week? He's not a draw lol
Kind of lame they skipped a tag match, they knew that Kidd couldn't compete so why not find a replacement?
>Kazakh monster vs fashion monster
>said fashion monster puts on El Gigante bodysuit
Aura
>heโs wearing it again
what is his fucking problem KEK
I get YOSHIHASHI being in every opener but why is Boltin stuck in that spot?
>>18353113beer at 3pm for the people not on the card
>>18353113A block niggas must be seething that everyone in B just gets to skip 2 shows
>>18353134Gets the crowd going
SANADA is unironically the most cerebral wrestler in NJPW
How is that not a fucking DQ it's a blatant nutshot
>>18353110Wins what?
>>18353113Because nobody besides you cares that gaped klitt isnโt having a match
>>18353163One testicle was still outside the ring
>>18353170IDC about kidd kek It's fucking up with my schedule and might miss two matches because of that
Boltin is so fucking based
Boltin is pretty fucking awesome
good match if a little boring on sanada's end
kek what a two star classic
>Boruchin vs Tsuji next
I'm ready
Oh I forgot Newman was another brit. He can take whatever spot Ospreay had
Newman's theme sounds like an Air Gear OP.
if yuya takes callum down and submits him in 4 minutes with an armlock, it is the best callum match of the tournament so far. that is the sad truth.
>>18353231Newman is being a prick
SANADA left too much drip on the floor
I think the final might be Takeshita vs Yuya just based on the way other wrestlers are having matches with them. They seem to be trying to start rivalries with him (eg ELP having a banger with Takeshita or Callum just weirdly starting shit with Yuya)
NuMan wouldn't have done that if Aaron Wolf was on that apron
this show was based until callem jewman came out
>>18353244youre a mark. first of all, ELP has already had bangers this year with Takeshita (Dontaku and Resurgence), so it's hardly a surprise that they had another 5 star match. and the wrestlers dont know who is going to win G1
>>18353228>>18353231commentators are so bad
Holy fuck goodbye to your liver nigga
Newman is actually awesome fuck the haters
yuya you should had ripped that brit's arm from his shoulder when you could kek
Sexy ass finish as usual from the Heato Stormu
unironically would have been better with no callum offense
New Japan will actually die if Yuya doesn't win the G1
Axe Bomber bros here we go
>>18353376>yakuza like a dragon job
>Unapologetic Axe Bomber callback
Fucking BASED
Taichi reviving his career off nothing but tribute spots. The GOAT
>the winner is obvious
yep
>>18353417ebil player a cute
i swear that kaiju roar in tsujiโs theme just sounds like a toilet flushing
>Yota Bluji tonight
Easy win incoming
nigga fuck off with the headlocks youre like 260
tsuji literally just wrestling like yuya for fun now
EVIL
md5: 2c186fd1646d956e335a0e738d85b749
๐
im kind of surprised and disappointed that EVIL hasn't had a title run with the heat that HoT would get
>>18353476he had a title run last year you fucking MARK
>>18353476He's based but he tanks the house when he's headliner. Does pretty fine even just a match below
This match is fucking awesome
oiwa might not win this but is giving a really good show
this is the best tsuji's ever been. great match
>>18353495I think a decent, shorter title run would be dependent on how over the guy he won it from is and his chase to win it back from EVIL while being sabotaged by HoT
FOUR SAVAGE GENERATIONS
TAKE THIS AS MY DECLARATION
finlay really forces the slow heel walk
So if Finlay loses this he's going to WWE and if he wins he's staying/going to AEW?
>>18353559Im not gonna miss Finlay's 5 hour entrance walk when he goes to NXT with a retarded name before retiring in 3 years to become a coach.
Here comes President anti-draw
tanahashi is such a clown taking up 5 main events this g1 lmao.
>>18353571Don't squash David Fitsbottom before he even starts.
>>18353561Tana's dropping points to everyone except for SANADA and EVIL
i wish i could pull tanaโs hair
put this walking corpse in the dirt finray
>>18353606i think is what finlay wishes as well
It was jarring at first but I appreciate the lack of constant sawdusting the from new generation. Makes sense since half of them are already 30
>>18353626just wait for Tiger Mask V and his Canadian Destroyer
Gedo you too pls calm down
man, this is such a boring main event. they should had swapped with the previous match
>>18353657>putting the youngsters overlol no
>>18353665Tanahashi has to have his moment for the 1000th time.
GO ACE
CLAP CLAP
GO ACE
CLAP CLAP
GO ACE
CLAP CLAP
>>18353665then you can't complain that young guys are or not pushed enough and it's killing njpw if you don't start to give them main events
gotta love how ace can barely get over the top rope and still does the move off the top like 3 times for each finish
they have to make this guy stop
kill him finlay. someone has to stop this
self mark bitch, hopefully someone injures him before january 4
Tana's weakest match so far but still very good
tanahashi is such a narcissist booking himself like this
they want this man to get seriously injured by the end of his retirement
Tanahashi doing a Hogan tribute by not putting anyone over
damn it he always brings me back with his guitar performances
>>18353702he's not even a draw anymore, fujita vs yoh drew way more in the same building like two months ago
It's gonna be so fun if with all this hyping up to that judo guy he fails his debut match.
