Insider here. The Tanahashi/Okada match is set to main event. Okada is planned to defeat Tanahashi after what was described to me as "shenanigans". Takeshita will come to the ring to save Tanahashi from a Don Callis Family beatdown, which will serve as his babyface turn. They really want him to be the next Ace figure of the company.

Ok, BASED

>>19235014
Anything not booked by the Bushiroad committee is usually based, yeah

>>19235012
Guess people need to watch AEW Japan to understand the aew dynamite storyline

11/12 Superhuman Taiji Ishimori Gets Ridiculous One More Time @ Shinjuku FACE (7:00pm)
11/19 Purge Night of Torture @ Korakuen (6:30pm)

those are both PPVs i forgot to put that

and 11/16 seems to be a house show for the Boat Race, it doesn't have any way listed to watch

I really should not be surprised at New Japan's ineptitude at this point, but the junior 4 way match is some real heinous booking. Douki is at least still a decent worker, yet he is not defending his title nor featured, but instead his jannetty Sho is in the match.

THIS WRESTLEDREAM IS BECOMING A WRESTLENIGHTMARE

>>19235023
I assume he will defend against someone from outside the company or Hiromu since they haven't crossed yet. This is just an excuse to have a 2nd Jr match on the show. Still retarded, though.

I'm starting to think that Wolf isn't gonna save us...

i love aew so much

>>19235023
why is sho in there anyway?

>>19234651
Holy shit they are actually gonna use Tanahashi's final match to get heat on Okada, to help babyface Takeshita for another company's feud

Just end this company at this point. This embarrassing existence isn't worth it

>>19235104
He and DOUKI won Jr Tag League and instead of asking for a challenger that's what they did with their win I guess

>>19235120
Glad you posted him cuz
>Tetsuya Naito says he would have accepted to face Hiroshi Tanahashi if he was asked for it

>Naito received indirect contact from people connected to NJPW to “check his interest” in possibly facing Tana at the Tokyo Dome. Because of that, Naito put a European booking on hold, keeping himself available in case an official offer came.

>With that offer never coming, Naito says his reason to return to New Japan is gone as he was only planning to come back if it truly mattered to him. Naito understands the decision to choose Okada and respects it, but he admits that he’s disappointed. Without that match, there’s no strong motivation for him to return to NJPW at this time.

https://note.com/12251625toru_/n/ndf375a34208e

>>19235157
Him and Hiromu are actually gonna go to NOAH now. What a fuck up

Seems like the japanese hate the okada vs tanahashi match
https://x.com/littlebetty1245/status/1987435054575067506

>>19235157
Seriously what does the office have against Naito?

>>19235162
Bushi too. I could honestly see Sanada jumping ship at this point as well.

At this point even Tsuji winning wouldn't do much for them

FIRE GEDO
*clap, clap, clapclapclap*

He was right all along

>>19235157
The pieces of this story are coming out quicker than I expected. Meltzer and SRS are gonna have to do some serious PR for Tonikan

>>19235251
SRS is already doing it
https://x.com/joegagne/status/1987111291391983956

Hopefully Tony books Okada in some retarded garbage match and gets him injured so we can be spared of this nonsense.

>>19235162
i don't think hiromu is willing to trade his njpw salary and the freedom to act like a freelancer and wreslte in other promotions to go to noah
for naito is another thing, probably he can't even join other smaller promotions

Tanahashi's final match is going to be contaminated with tranny nonsense. Grimmest of the grim.

>>19235275
A fitting punishment for the man who opened the "Forbidden Door"

>>19235012
WHYYYYYY

Inokiism is the only way to save this mess

maybe if we're lucky the Bucks will corner Okada and make some wacky faces

Shut the fuck up ya bitches
Okada vs Tanahashi is gonna be gigakino
True Nujapan fans love the AEW partnership
Nobody wants to see that lil bitch Naito

>>19235012
>a Don Callis Family beatdown

>>19235004 (OP)
>SANADA Collection S.S
huh what that mean?

REMINDER:

Inoki didn't put over anyone from NJPW in his retirement either

but I guess that's okay because... Trannyhashi! Gaped Klitt! Grim! NJPW is grim! *quietly sobs over NOAH attendance*

>The Dome is almost sold out, the first floor stands are sold out, and tickets for the second floor are only available near the back row.

>our resident seething schizo is going to have to come up with cope for why selling out the Tokyo Dome for the first time in fucking 25 years is actually bad

Why are they so committed to not having a Jr title match on a major show?

fuck rocky

>>19235613
This is the power of Big Toné
The power of A E MOTHERFUCKIN W
NOAHfags...How is that WWE partnership workin' out for ya? LMAO!!

>>19235820
coz lil junior bitches are not a draw
this aint no 205 live motherfucker

>>19235820
you mean like the one in last year's WK where DOUKI kwab'd himself?

>>19235121
kek i already forgot they won, what a weird outcome
>>19235162
imagine telling someone this is where los ingo would end up 7 years ago

>>19236047
What if the match features a run in from Naito and Nakamura?

>>19236089
>naito
>running

>>19236047
Hope he can get him an AEW contract

>>19236122
nah
tony saw your meme of t-shirt naito not wanting to work hard in american promotion
you are reason why naito is unemployed and struggling right now
hope you are proud of yourself for ruining naito's life

>>19235593
Who else would be able to counter Milano collection AT?

>pretending like it's some great offense that Okada was picked as the retirement match instead of Naito
are you faggots seriously going to act like Tanahashi/Naito is a bigger more meaningful rivalry than Tanahashi/Okada?

>>19236217
The offense is that it's going to be used to further a midcard feud in AEW.

>>19236238
How exactly do you think that will happen? I'm curious to hear your delusional headcanon.

>>19235605
Inoki was a megastar

>>19236243
By injecting Don Callis family nonsense in the match? Which Okada implied is going to happen at the press conference?

>>19236261
All he implied at the press conference is that he's working heel. The fact that Gedo is with him pretty much assures that there will be no Callis involvement.

>>19236274
There will be and it'll be terrible

"I'd like to show someone a little different, the AEW styled Okada. You won't see the old Rainmaker. You might get an idea of the Okada you'll see if you watch AEW."

>>19236281
I hope you are willing to dogeza apologize in the thread when it doesn't happen. I will if I'm wrong.
>>19236286
This just means he's going to flip the crowd off with a rainmaker pose. Of course he's going to work heel against Tanahashi in his retirement match -- everybody works heel against the retiree in their retirement match. Naito was a heel for Muto, did his best to draw boos from the crowd.

The match will honestly be similar to their first matches when Okada was the smarmy debuting heel wunderkid.

>>19236306
Why the fuck would you still have faith that anything involving AEW and NJPW is going to be good? How delusional can one be?

>>19236047
I thought the booze bloat had magically gotten to kanemaru at first

>>19236320
AEW's involvement in this match is completely incidental. You can bitch about Takeshita all you want and I'll agree with a lot of it but Okada is simply the logical choice for this match regardless of circumstances and the amount of tickets they sold since revealing him proves it.

>>19236328
>the amount of tickets they sold since revealing him proves it.
Care to tell us more about this, Rocky?

>>19236340
Even someone who dumps on Takeshita being champ in their post is an AEW shill to you, right. You're definitely not unhinged.

>>19236345
You apparently have inside info that no one else has so I'm assuming that you're a paid AEW shill, yes.

>>19236353
>>19235613

>>19236353
>inside info
>literally the website you buy tickets off of shows the availability of seats
>can weigh that against the number Tanahashi's announced a few days ago
You are so fucking mad and unhinged

Did you just notice that Okada said he's going to show his AEW self??? Are you fucking DERANGED???????

>>19236320
AEW saved NJPW you stupid delusional bitch. You talk a lot of shit for someone who lost his penis. Talk shit about the AEW NJPW partnership in front of my handsome face and see what the fuck happens. I have punch you and pull your pants down in front of your high school classmates you little shit.

>>19236390
So? NJPW is AEW's development. NJPW is AEW's anal rape toy. Shut the fuck up and bend over. Do the dogeza. And just take it. That is what you NJPWfags are good for.

>makes a bait post pretending to be another poster but amping up the console wars
>deletes and remakes it because it isn't faggy enough
what causes this brand of autism?

>>19236501
Based and Chud pilled.

>>19235012
Making Takeshita the new ace of NJPW would be a bizarre choice unless Takeshita was ready to drop his AEW and DDT deals and focus on NJPW exclusively.

>>19235162
I'm not convinced most or all of LIJ will bounce to another promotion. I'm still not convinced Naito will even take NOAH or AJPW bookings at this rate.

>>19236738
In Takeshita's defense he did say if he became double champ he would appear twice as much. But I doubt that means he is going to be slumming it on road to new beginning. The office doesn't even fly out foreigners half the time anymore.

>>19236752
I don't know what the deal with Naito is, but I like the theory he is under some sort of non-compete with regards to Japan and maybe even US dates. I don't really understand what he is doing if that is not the case. Waiting for Bushiroad to come crawling back and give him a big offer? Bushiroad seems more than content to continue cutting costs literally everywhere they possibly can.

I hate AEW and the partnership between NJPW and AEW. I feel like the only thing NJPW has gotten from it is making more US shows but they don't draw.

>>19236771
They get a good payday for Forbidden Door. Other than that, it's been a disaster.

>>19236365
kek he shut up quick after this

>>19236511
>I have punch you and pull your pants down

Naito can't wrestle anymore.
There is a reason he can't get any bookings.

if naito cant get booked he should serve turkish ice cream at his store and work the marks into oblivion

Let's be honest, Okada and Takeshita will be the best wrestlers on the card.

>>19236047
Did Naitetty beg Okama to get him a toybox contract ?

>>19236913
Nah Takeshita is the best wrestler in the world right now. It is sad that the best NJPW can offer him as his opponent is the dimeless Yota Tsuji. They should have went with Shota Umino instead.

When you see your fellow man

Down in his luck

And you say nothing

>>19236771
Then why the fuck are you even here, huh? What do you get out of hate watching and making yourself miserable? Get it through your thick skull already. AEW x NJPW partnership is strong as fuck and it is not ending anytime soon. And AEW is the big brother in this partnership. Simple as. I love AEW and I love the AEW x NJPW partnership. Unlike you, I enjoy both products and I want to see even more crossover between the two promotions. And Rocky Romero will make my wishes come true. Get fucked, bitch. Cry more. Seethe. Whine. Grimola Grimola bitch.

>>19236864
naito is taking over the european indies
he is a wrestling superstar in europe now

And so I did every day

And the devil tells you I didn't cause that's what you wanna hear

>Trannyhashi vs Okama for the billionth time when they're 2 broken down shitters
>AEW superstar who somehow got booed against EVIL vs dimeless Yota Chubby in a heatless bangerino for the world title
>Auraless fat judoka vs boring shitter for the NEVER openweight title
>a random 4 way for the right to challenge for the junior title that isn't even booked on the show
>joshi pissbreak match no one gives a shit about
The Tokyo Dome will be packed and they'll be on prime time TV, it is their last chance to make something big. Somehow they manage to make the worst card and they'll manage to fumble and not gain any new fans because they'd rather book a dimeless bloated card with a joshi match, a random 4 way with little twinks and have Tonikan's toys going over in the main and semi-main. Grim.

>>19237009
>I have punch you and pull your pants down

>>19237009
what do you expect
njpw has no talent or stars left
this is the best they can do

Hopefully they have Medicare parts A and B

>oh boy the card looks great this year i wonder what muh bois are discussing
>the mentally ill schizo is still here and he is still spamming the general
kek
he is truly miserable
im gonna be enjoying the show live in tokyo dome
takeshita, okada and wolf are gonna win
cant wait for kino

>>19237079
bro i came back here to see what people were saying about okada vs tana and its just the same negative shit that made me leave this place

I love AEW x NJPW partnership. I really love it.

>>19237079
He's made over 100 posts seething about this in the last 24 hours

No I am not exaggerating, wish I was

>>19237088
it's just one schizo spamming and the two or so of us left who are still here mainly to laugh at and torment him

Finlay should be the next IWGP champion imo

>>19236968
This is why everyone on this board hates you trannies and rips on you every chance they get.

should've had Kamitani retire him
https://x.com/wwr_stardom/status/1832614557837373761

stop saying mean things about nooj or i'll make you part of my schizo bushidrone cinematic universe and you'll be my new boogeyman with a new backstory.

Tanahashi retiring, when the coin dropped

>>19237380
How 'bout you cry about it some more.

>>19237088
you're free to go to reddit and twitter where everyone is super hyped and clapping like seals for AEW's Okada

>>19237079
Buddy there is nothing kino going on

>>19237950
'fraid so
kino will be when we grimposters laugh after WK which to be fair should be a financial success for once, but then after Trannyhashi retires it's all back to pure grimness and we'll laugh at the young dimeless niggas and the fat judoka struggling to even get a thousy in korakuen hall.

Believe it or not we keep you bubblin', and even those who are not grimsters but just think Shin Nihon sucks right now or make a slightly negative comment about it make you bubble, wheeze and go into a schizo mental breakdown. This keeps the thread active. This is why the last few threads have not been archived. Grimsters are the real draw, actually you should be thankful.

You've posted this "fact" frog image accompanying a paragraph of seething about Tanahashi's retirement success in like the past 10 threads

Yes, you are legion and definitely not just one fruitcake having a mental breakdown over TJPW getting dunked on by Stardom or some other joshipedo shit
