I have no idea where any of the title situations are going outside of Ospreay likely having a match with Scurll soon. Im really hoping they book this well because that last match last night left a bad taste in my mouth

>>91958 >>91958 t. Naito

>>91958 >WK9 IS OKADA'S TIME

>>91956 I'M HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD I'M HERE TO *record scratch and silence* "Its Adolph Zigzag!" >I am here for the TRUE US championship <good night and good bye bang ITS THE GREATEST WORKER IN THE WORLD VS THE GREATEST WORKER IN THE WORLD!

Anyone want gifs from last night while we wait?

>>91971 what you got any spots to fulfill my ADICCKKKITION?

>>91972 I got spots for days brother

>>91972 >>91973

>>91978 Now that I think about, I remember someone saying how Okada had Naito scouted but not the other way around. Yeah, makes sense for him to lose since he fucking kept falling for the same shit from Okada.

>>91979 That was me, I noticed it when okada had that counter for naito's springboard corner dropkick. Naito also grandstanded a lot and tried for the stardust press twice which has never paid off since he went heel.

>>91980 I noticed that before I saw your post too. I was expecting a reversal like he did during their tag matches. I knew something was off then.

>>91981 >>91980 No wait nevermind it was the when Naito is on the top rope and he got hit by that dropkick. He usually just reversed that.

>>91982 Yeah he was falling for all of okada's old tricks. The way the match was laid out makes it feel like the beginning of a long term program. I could see them doing this again even as soon as next year but maybe with the roles reversed.

>>91983 I just hope they don't call Naito the young upstart since he'll be 36 next year.

>>91984 They still do it for ibushi so don't hold out hope

>>91985 Oh yeah forgot Ibushi was gonna turn 78 soon.

>>91986 Well ibushi did sell his soul for eternal youth so they might as well play it up as much as they can

>>91983 I like how they do the whole "know all your tricks" thing.

>>91988 It's much better than Cena's "I LEARNED A NEW MOVE, WATCH ME ALMOST FUCK IT UP" or Roman spamming his superman punches and spears.

>>91989 To give WWE and roman some credit, they kind of did this with seff and roman where roman used the knockback force from the buckle bomb with to do a superman punch. It's been over a year since they last did that spot but at least those two tried.

>>91990 I hate that spot. It fucks over the buckle bomb entirely.

>>91991 They never did it right yeah because roman didn't sell the buckle bomb after the punch. He should do the punch then immediately collapse. Like he fought through the pain of the attack and then after the adrenaline rush start feeling it.

>>91992 Everything would be fine if Roman actually knew how to sell.

>>91989 If I heard correctly Kevin Kelly said that Okada started using the submission move to counter the Destino, not sure how but I guess it does somehow. >>91990 >>91992 >Roman >Selling anything Roman's got that fighting spirit maggle ah love it! Meltz was saying how "that's such a new japan spot".

>>91994 I think it's an easy hold to apply when naito goes to wring the arm up for the destino.

>>91994 It's not that he didn't sell it at first. Ishii does that all the time, but he falls down after he hits his move.

>>91996 Ishii is legit one of the best sellers in the world. Probably has the best timing of anyone too.

One thing I love about wrestling is that there's always something else to look forward too. Even WWE gets this right with the raw after mania, they just start building to new shit right away. Most other media or sports has down time between big events/releases but not wrestling, feeds into my inner impatient autistic child

KAWATO IS ON TONIGHT BOYS YESSS I couldn't find the schedule this time and I was worried, looks like he tagging with Henare too.

>>92001 lucky boy

All the boys out tonight time for a Young Lion uprising. >>92001 Kawato x Jurina Mixed Match Challenge™

Kawato goes right after his arch nemesis El Desperado

When did henare start wearing this outfit?

>>92006 The New Japan Rumble.

>>92007 He's going on excursion soon if they're letting him wear something other than black trunks. Maybe he will even win here.

>>92006 At Wrestle Kingdom last night. Its like a mix of all the polys and some tarzan loincloth thing. His signature is a samoan drop too, it looks like.

rip my nippa kawato mane

So when do the debuts start?

i could see kawato being the next tiger mask

>>92013 Right? He used to always get matched up against Tiger Mask and normal Kota Ibushi who was also Tiger Mask W. I kinda don't want him to be stuck with a prior gimmick, however.

Looking real goldberg baby.

THE ELITE

cheeseburger is over brother, its his time

I hear some shitty western fans.

Cheeseburger might win this, he's the only one that's not crippled.

Thanks dunn.

Why hasn't there been a nigger wrestler named Fried Chicken yet?

I hope Ibushi wins with one move.

GOLDEN LOVERS

Holy shiet.

>I'm sick Get well soon kenny.

SWITCHUBLADU?

How is switchblade going to help with this? I'm so confused.

Jay White is the new Bullet Club Hunter

aite fuck jay white

Your new us champion.

>>92037 >aite fuck jay white why?

Tongans were in the back waiting for their match not giving a fuck about the BC falling apart.

The new BC leader is gonna be fucking Cody isn't it?

>>92039 I liked them both (and probably only JW supporter itt) but there can only be one Unless he teams with henare then we cool.

>>92041 Cody with Bullet Club Kenny with The Elite

>>92043 Should be fucking Tama dammit.

Looking at the match schedule, I can tell they're setting up Tana to face Suzuki.

Hot potato maggle.

What did he say?

who won G.O.D. vs. CHAOS? Bathroom BREAK

>>92052 GOD

>booing elgin strikes <cheering sabre strikes BIZARROLAND MAGGLE

Suzuki is going straight for the ic title.

>>92054 see >>92051

>Suzuki taking the belt off Tana I'm fine with this.

>>92057 Me too.

I was actually indifferent to Naito winning the belt off of Okada, now I want it more than ever.

Evil got a cooler scythe.

>naito tripping the announcer with the mic cord such a loveable chap

Ok I want Naito to win that belt but booing Okada? Fuck off ROHfags

>Heavy, junior and NEVER titles Chaos looking pretty strong going into 2018 well other than their chase owens, yoshihashi

>>92063 LIJ is so good that their chase owens is bushi.

I would've flipped if Yoshihashi pinned Naito.

Those LIJ combos are beautiful.

So the only big things on this is Kenny saving Ibushi, Kenny vs Jay White, and Tanahashi vs Suzuki.

OH MY GAH ITS FOZZY

Why cant I hold all these feuds?

Jericho staying is both shocking and totally expected. Him vs naito should be awesome

Pretty sure Hiromu called Osperay out for his "IWBG" junior championship…

>>92073 shit wrong gif

>>92072 WHAT THE FUCK CHRIS? YOU NEED TO COME BACK AND GET THROWN OVER THE TOP ROPE BY ROMAN! fixed

Leddit translator: In ring Naito promo Naito: "Buenas Noches Korakuen Halll! I lost to Kazuchika Okada last night. I don't plan on making any excuses for my loss. However, this year, 2018, we, Los Ingobernables de Japon, will continue to evolve. I ask you to continue to support us on our journey. Let's kick off our first sing-along here at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. BUSHI, EVIL, SANADA, Hiromu y Naito - nosotros! LOS! Ingoberrrrrrrnaaaaaaa~bleees….DE JA-PON!" Backstage SANADA: "Jericho might have gotten the better of us this time. But Okada - you're next." Hiromu: "Tokyo Dome - the 4 Way. I lost, no question. We fought by the rules and that's the truth. Will Ospreay - I need your IWGP Junior Heavyweight belt now. Well, since I hit you with the Time Bomb tonight and yesterday at the Dome, I don't need to ask for your permission to challenge for the belt, right? I bet you can't let that down. That's it, do you understand? You understand right? Ospreay, let me challenge you." BUSHI: "This year as well, LIJ are going to rule that ring. En serio! Ma-ji-de." EVIL: "I've been saying this before, but I'll be dominating New Japan Pro Wrestling again this year. I've added another IWGP belt to my collection. SANADA and I are going to raise the profile of the tag team belts to new heights. Tonight, I couldn't help but notice a certain loser in the ring. Goto…that bet of yours. I lost it to you at an overseas event. I'm going to take it and send you to hell. This is eeeeevil. Everything is eviiiil. Subete wa…EVIL DA!" Naito: "Chris Jericho, I know you're a big star and all, but why are you so interested in me. I can understand why you would get so heated, seeing as it's me. Stay tranquilo - cabron! [cuck!]"

The japanese raw after mania was really good. Lots of shit getting set up.

>>92076 Vince! Vince! Can you say a few words on this pic posted by Jericho?

>>92078 So wait Jericho is like that jackass friend that gets into all the fights possible to the Chaos crew?

>>92080 DELETE THAT POST RIGHT NOW

>>92081 Do you mean fighting on behalf of Chaos cause Gedo used to be his tag team partner in WAR?

>>92083 Yes, I meant that. That still doesn't explain why he's more aggressive than the other members.

>>92084 I don't think the main focus of the feud is due to his friend being one of the brains behind Chaos. It's due to Naito shitting all over the whole "double main event" billing. Naito had his main event spot taken away at Wrestle Kingdom 8 due to the fan vote. When he got his chance to main event Wrestle Kingdom again, he basically felt threatened by the spot light being taken away by Omega and Jericho. He even called the whole thing out during his Tokyo Sports MVP award press conference. Vid related, translated.

>>92085 I know that, I'm just asking why Jericho attacks EVERYONE but the members of Chaos trying to stop him from going apeshit.

>>92086 >>92085 But being friends with Gedo is all I'm gonna get I take it.

>>92087 That's what I assume to. Only thing that makes sense at this point.

>>91970 >Gino Gambino was nowhere to be found You can't be the new Bone Soldier if you don't show up.

>>91970 DJ KHALED IN THE BULLET CLUB BY GAWD
