Gabe skipping work again, huh?

YOTA!!

GRIM

>>18559601
Zane is gonna get a less-than minimum wage offer for WWE ID and run off. Murashima is where the money is.

take is losing

>4 HoT match including EVIL in the semis
Zannen da...

>yasuda with both knees wrapped up
he's bound to quit before he graduates.

>>18559586 (OP)
Its starting to feel like ZSJ will lose the belt before WK. He's got too many loses to "top guys" and he's hinting about being Wolf's match.

>>18559586 (OP)
guys im sorry but i cannot watch that many pointless tag matches. I mean this is two tournament matches and seven tag matches.

>>18559667
The G1 winner can choose his shot whenever he wants, I assume he drops it at KOPW

BOOM

CRASH THE MAT TWIX YORU WO KUDAKE

GABE KWAB SPOTTED

If i was booking i'd do this
Tusji wins
Tana briefcase remtach
WK would look like
Drilla/David vs Evil and Sanada vs Ishii and Taichi
Fujita (W) vs Despy vs takahashi
Gabe (W) Vs Takeshita globle
Yuya(W) vs Tana
Tusji (W) vs Zack/ the winner vs Goto on the 5th (he deserves a big match for all the work he's put in)

For the 5th i'd invite Ospreay back to kill Newman trying to re-create Gabe and Kenny
Shota over Moxley
Tusji vs Goto

I feel like this establishs a good core group of guys. With the end goal being Tusji vs Shota at WK next year.

i'd have Finaly turn on Gabe after he drops the belt to Shota at NB
Yuya and Tusji at dominion
Just pay Naito his fucking money

let me get a sip before i settle in

>>18559732
there is no show on the 5th you imbecile. but otherwise these are all good ideas

>>18559745
Charlton teased a show happening around 1/4 season

>Shota and Yuya coming out to Despy's music
Grim

finally got caught up on the G1
these niggas were getting pops for headlocks and arm drags
good shit

>>18559755
Shota will be wrestling in the 1.4 pre-show Ranbo

is taichi fucker still asleep

BOOOOO

Glad to see this gay ass nigga back

>>18559751
what the fuck would he know?

Are they doing Yuya/Shota tag title run? I could get with that

TAGUCHI WINS

Watobros...

>4 matches of these niggas
when will it end?

>>18559839
When you'll stop being mad about it

what's so don about him

he's so fucking fat.

will the final be on Samurai tv?

>>18559586 (OP)
>Gabe skips out on G1 so he can play in Tony's toybox
I thought he loved New Japan bros? :(

>>18559854
never trust gaijin

You think these 2 shared Pieter on the regular?

>>18559854
He's not even here after Shingo the AEW lover called him out LOL!

>>18559770
>getting up this early just to not even see Taichi’s thighs
brother it’s not worth it, i’m going back to bed

>>18559873
i think everyone knew about it and shingo just said it out loud because they announced the cagematch

>Fale with a NEVER title shot
Oh my fucking god EVIL really winning

Are these guys still called bullet club lol

>>18559854
>Yummy Omega bangerino
>Tony secretly makes a deal to hire the wrestler for when their current contract runs out
>Tony gets too excited and starts spamming the wrestler on AEW tv, making it very obvious they are leaving NJPW
>Wrestler announces on AEW tv that they are joining AEW after WK
We've seen this before and we'll see it again

>>18559884
have a nice sleep brother

Why is bullet club still a thing

TJP is a fucking faggot. Feel like I needed to say this.

where the aswang at though

>>18559895
>>18559902
They're in House of Torture who aren't Bullet Club anymore.

>>18559914
bend over and we'll summon him

>>18559921
What is the difference between them and bullet club

The better question is why is united empire still a thing

>>18559902
Bullet Club never die

GO ACE

>>18559897
thank you fren, see you in an hour

i'm a newfag to njpw, how would you quickly summarize njpw's factions? aside hot that is clearly the heel edgy one

>>18559943
Even fucking Fale isn't in it anymore lol, there's no way they still sell enough of these to justify the name still being used

>>18559956
gaijins bad.

>>18559962
i'm not that retarded

what a good kid murashima

GO MURASHIMA GO

kek Murashima said fuck these jobbers

No way they actually do ELP vs Tanahashi on any serious big show.

The only acceptable flip in wrestling is a moonsault.

I need Ishii to come back. Him and Murashima might move me.

Newman is better than O-Khan now

Im not excited for Kobe.

Why is UE still a thing half the members left that shit

>>18560035
I need every Ishii match to be him laying the choppas down on Murashima until Murashima finally beats him

Based Sanseito Dragon

The Nanjing numbers were greatly exaggerated.

FOUR SAVAGE GENERATIONS

TAKE THIS AS MY DECLARATION

I hate this theme

I NEED A REBEL

5 SAVAGE G1 LOSSES
JOBBING OUT GAVE ME DEPRESSION

>>18560083
PUBLIC ANAL MASTURBATIOOOOOOON

What so rebel of him, the hair?

>>18560091
REBERR*

would be based if daiki got the fluke pin off him

where do you guys usually watch Nuuj?
inb4 paying for it
I use watchwrestling usually

Has gedo been with the gaijins so long that he forgot how to speak nippon

>>18560138
he must've forgotten how to speak in general since he can't speak english

Shingo blatantly signalling for spots

>>18560134
It is the only thing I subscribe to.

>>18560144
He certainly learned how to swear in english.

what's the story with the kid, did Shingo adopt him?

>>18560144
You obviously dont pay attention to him when Finray is getting his ass beat

I am staying up until 8am for a zsj match.

>>18560159
yes, Nagain is now with unaffiliated (Takagi, Tsuji, Hiromu)

>>18560159
yeah pretty much

>>18560161
CHINGO CHANGO REBERRRR OREWA HENTAI SUDOKU

>>18560159
nagai asked him to and shingo said yes

>>18559956
Hontai are the good guys representing the company
HoT are the antithesis of them
War Dogs are heels but more battering, angry heels
TMDK are just some guys who wrestle well
Unaffiliated guys are just LIJ leftovers

Papa Shingo vs Papa Shango

>Ishimori is 1-15 vs Kanemaru
>only win is from the pandemic
Holy shit

Please nippon-san... end these matches fast...

drilla looks like a typical Rakesh but more buff

make this go fast, i want to see oiwa

i miss J5G so much bros

This undercard makeup is awful

The crack that come off that was beautiful
The most obvious blading of all time to follow it up

Why do they do this shit?

SANADA and Kanemaru can now help EVIL win

>>18560283
Because you keep crying about it

GAPED

I do wish ZSJ suffered a career ending and potentially life threatening injury

HE'S BACK YALL

i was mildly shocked that fujita is a 22yo guy and not mid 30s

>>18560317
This but with Takeshita

>Scapejoke Jack Perry
Tony suspend this man again

anal with oiwa

SHO still wearing the Reina Mishima tights. Fitting the condition Tekken and New Japan are in right now.

Oiwa's flying armbar thing is dimes, is he copying Yuya a bit?

>lying in bed snug as a bug while I have sweaty nippon drama.
I have not been this cozy watching puroresu since it snowed outside my house while watching wrestle kingdom a decade ago.

Imagine if EVIL actually wins after all this shit.

>>18560354
>Takeshita injuring ZSJ for good
yes please

>>18560393
based

TMDK and War Dogs couldn't take out HoT. If EVIL wins you know who to blame.

>>18560406
a heel faction shouldn't be this big tho they are coming out of the walls

>fujita will be stuck feuding with dookie now
holy fucking grim

If we get blueji then we might be safe

Hiromu is at the NOAH show right?

>>18560422
DOUKI is better as a heel anyway

the one time lij comes out for a match is the one when hiromu has fucked off to noah lol

>>18560422
Not grim at all. Delete this post immediately.

FINNERMAN!

isn't that they gay man who offers sexual favors to the booker to be the top guy?

>>18560417
Tanahashi's last act in NJPW will be defeating EVIL and HOT in a yummy epic match with loads of run ins (including Nakamura and Shibata). EVIL will then be banished. Everyone cheers (EVIL returns one month later)

EVIL should win.

>blueji
what’s blueji’s win rate bros?

>>18560480
sup naito?

>>18560480
no one is saying this

I love when he does the salute before the Nagata Lock. Fucking dickhead why are you so based

How many powerbombs have we seen in the last 3 days

>>18560505
a lot of nips preferred shota to tsuji and now they want evil to win against tsuji. idk whats their deal

Abebros...

Why aren't these two competitors making out?

REFEREE COOOOOOOOUUUUUUNT

lmao the announcer keeps getting fucked

>>18560520
Im by no means a fan of shota, but i find Tsuji a bit meh. Hes never looked as good as he did in his SANADA match and I'm slowly starting to think that was thanks to SANADA more than Tsuji. It also might be my natural contrarism too

Cute girl with her mom next to Yota

>>18560520
Japanese don't like redditors

THAT WAS 20 LOL

[Sad news] Hiromu last his NOAH match.

>>18560549
Ref got halfway through 19 Mississippi

>>18560542
Proof?

>>18560520
Lemme guess, 5ch?

TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUJI

>>18560541
i prefer tsuji as a matter of style than shota but i get what you mean.

>>18560533
all of the fujocoins for today got invested elsewhere, pls understand

MARTY

Marty took that spear like a champ kek

>>18560566
i mean, the only place? you really want me to check every nips on twitter, i don't have that much free time kek the only positive thing about 5ch they can post honest shit opinion instead of fake nice shit opinion, if that mae sense

>>18560579
Even the kid is bored tonight

Big EVIL matches are fucking based idc

THE LOW BLOW TRAIN

>>18560597
He sells a nut shot like no other

>>18560595
lmfao I didn't even see that until now

>>18560579
despysisters look like THAT?
also kek that kid is knocked the fuck out

>big crotch comedy spot in a g1 semifinals.
grim.

Holy shit what a sequence

That Alabama slam was sick

>stream dies in the middle of the match
grim

These fucking counters holy shit

Yep, EVIL winning

>>18560607
Not enough flips for ya?

kino.

WHAT THE FUCK

is this a rib

fucking grim

WAT

BASED EVIL

red shoes should had been in marty's place after what tsuji said to him, missed opportunity

HELL YEAH HAHAHA!

>>18560614
Wasn't that an alley oop powerbomb

>putting his already unconscious body into a sharpshooter
ok that was based

dude, I think Tsuji is legit ko'd

>match gets into its stride.
>ends.

>>18560640
Yeah, reminded me of the alabama slam with how it hit.

>>18560643
that was my thought as well

this is the grimmest G1 ever

>the savior of New Japan is now either Zack or an AEW guy
I don't care anymore

>tfw i thought they were doing the fake bell spot again
kek what a cute and evil player

Grim
I'm done with this cocksucking ass company
How do I get into AEW?
Does it have Japanese commentary?

>>18560657
>yfw Tanahashi wins the whole thing

Yappari, Takeshita really is New Japan's savior wwwwww

wait... what are the chances of the champion being in the G1 finals? Are we really about to see Takeshita win the whole thing?

What was the finish please ? I just tuned in

>NJPW is unironically bending the knee and putting AEW over in the finals
Holy fucking grim. It wasn't supposed to be like this.

EVIL is taking it all, baby

>>18560661
You watch every single MJF match

Wtf happened to tsuji I just turned it on

>>18560672
got ko'd and evil won

I honestly really do not care anymore

>>18560672
they were protecting him with a Referee stoppage.

>takeshira is our only hope.
grim.

people saying takeshita winning this but i have a feeling that zsj is gonna take this home again

lol tsuji was probably gonna win this year, extremely fucked up
shouldn't have done a fucking fale spot after he clearly got rattled by that first powerbomb
maybe he'll learn lesson to rework spots when shit happens

>>18560681
>champion winning the g1
why would they do this?

>>18560681
Sad

>>18560685
against takeshita i meant

>>18560681
EVIL beating ZSJ in the finals and stealing the belt

>>18560673
BASED

>>18560684
Stop with the cope, this was obviously the planned finish. Yall did the same thing when Goto lost the title and it was equally as pathetic

>world champion.
>zero reaction.
Grim.

Unironically unsubbing from World. Fuck this semen slurping cuckold promotion.

Tsuji got the X from the ref, Fale legit concussed him

>>18560685
So he can wrestle himself and produce the single worde match ever.

How do I get an ass like Zack?

They're arguably pushing HoT harder than Stardom pushes HATE/Kamitani or NOAH with OZAWA/T2KX and HoT are the only ones not boosting business whatsoever.

>stream comes back
LET'S GO TAKESHITA
YOU'RE THE BEST WRESTLER
A-LIVE

SAVE US, ALPHA

>>18560695
you are a fucking idiot

screw this shit I'm watching Noah

Wacky prediction:
Evil wins G1 says to hell with the belt. With my G1 victory I am demanding Hiroshi Tanahashi’s final match at Tokyo Dome.

>>18560704
Never eat.

>>18560702
He is a self indulgent wanker. Makes total sense

>>18560705
Lmao, HoT is the hottest faction in New Japan

>>18560713
Would be dumb but based.

>>18560711
nah you are for being a reality denying faggot

>>18560701
he was already concussed, go rewatch the powerbomb he took from Evil earlier, the one where he sold for a while and evil pinned him with his foot
tsuji should have known better than to take that when he was already fucked up, can't really blame fale

>>18560704
Boys got that BBL

Thank god zsj is last so he can put me to sleep with his terrible wrestling.

>>18560713
>President Tana ruins the G1 so he can be the one to defeat EVIL in his last match
Kek

ayo this nigga named take a shit

>>18560725
okay, dipshit

is EVIL related to Evil Uno?

>>18560741
when is he teaming up with dookie

BEAT HIM KONOSUKE
BEAT THAT NIGGAS ASS

>>18560713
They don't want to put any youngsters over, might as well

Zack should replace Tanahashi as NJPW ace since they both FUCKING SUCK, that's right, Tanahashi is a boring old shitter and he was propped up by the talent around him. Fuck that dragon screw spamming air guitaring no yen bitch, join Deadie Guerrero in hell for using a renamed frog splash as your signature move New Japan dies under the Ace's regime GOD BLESS

Where do I watch? Is there english commentary?

>>18560783
wrestle-universe.com

>>18560783
watch-wrestling eu

>>18560783
Yes but it sucks and is the only available option for big NOAH show outside Japan

hell of a collision there

Neither of these guys should be trying to salvage this

>>18560811
collision is later on tonight brother

>>18560815
too late

Do 5ch like what they're seeing?

I shut off the stream, how is the crowd for this match?

The Yuya vs Shota finals that I booked in my head was better than whatever we're going to have.

>>18560818
They seem to like EVIL more than the western panty waist watchers of NJPW.

>>18560735
I missed that will do. I feel bad for Tsuji since it seems obvious he was supposed to win the G1

rough

How did Zack not kill himself?

He's trying to kill Zack

Kek they fucked that up

Bruh

BASED ASS FUCKING MATCH

That's right. It's all about Takeshita now. Bend over NuJamals.

>>18559634
So he's losing the next match

zack got murdered

>Charlton outright saying it's up to Takeshita to save us
Its fucking over.

feeling like EVIL wins the G1 bros

BOW DOWN TO THE
BOW DOWN TO THE TONEDOG

Soup bros... we got this

I reall hate how that faggot rocky romero forces himself into everything

Save us EVIL

>>18560844
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Guess he learned his lesson. Don't fuck with AEW.

4,558人

Why does the main champ even take part in G1, especially if he jobs clean? That just makes him look weaker. Not that I mind in this case because ZSJ sucks.

EVIL should win.

LMFAO imagine if an AEW contracted wrestler won the G1?? Lets go EVIL

I like how the castrated slaves in the crowd are cheering for Takeshita. Fucking morons.

>>18560865
A main roster guy winning the developmental tournament would elevate it

it's up to the best heel in the biz to get this no personality geek over

>>18560869
Take is the best heel in the biz?

Last Year: an AEW guy takes the top belt hostage
This Year: an AEW guy takes the top tourney hostage

>Mid-card Bakan shitter wins the G1
it's over. anyone who watches New Japan from here on out is a certified cuckold.

Why doesn't Takeshita just get his DCF BROTHERS to help him against HOT tomorrow?

is despy drinking a bottle of lean

>Tanking your G1 and all your new generation just to get a wrestler from another company over
Unironic cuck behaviour. Very sad

>>18560829
>I feel bad for Tsuji since it seems obvious he was supposed to win the G1
Cope. EVIL was destined to win this G1. Biggest merch mover and the Japanese crowd love love loves him

>>18560889
imagine the poop when don callis hit dick togo in the balls :ooo

>>18560899
Dick to dick contact

Takeshita on top killed Ddt, hope he does the same to here

>>18560909
if they don't trust any of their guys they deserve it you're right

>>18560909
why are you lying anon

>>18560918
Look where Kenny and Ibushi had them, look where DDT has been since

>>18560909
>>18560938
Anti yen Tanahashi going over HARASHIMA killed DDT

>>18560918
He was such an antidraw their own fan polls had him at the bottom

Useless tournament
