Welp that explains why it was booked how it was
Back when being the Television Champion f'ing meant something.
So Lashley been hurt since the rumble.
Welp......wish him a speedy recovery. Probably be out til SummerSlam
I know I'm probably the only one here who likes Joshi wrestling. But KAIRI went back to Stardom once her WWE contract was up and was promptly jumped.
Man, is it me or do Japanese women make the same annoying sound when they fuck and pretend fight?
lolz Kairi didn’t even put on a “fight”….. to each their own, I just don’t understand the appeal.
Wow
I've been a fan of Joshi wrestling since the early 90's. It's nowhere close to the level it was back then. Nowdays it comes off like cosplay. I do however like Mayu Iwatani and Utami Hayashishita. Those two are probably the best of the bunch right now.
Here's the whole Wrestling Observer Kenny Omega interview. It's a good listen.
If Cody ever goes back to AEW he's won't be accepted. He'll have to win the fan base back over.
Damn, Switchblade turns on Tama and kicks him out of "Bullet Club".
IMPACT is having really good storylines and wrestling for a while.
Yeah, I would say for the past six months they've been doing some quality work.
Welcome to modern day wrestling where you have a million false finishes and nobody sells anything, not even finishers.
It wouldn't shock me if it is. Both Cody and Tony Kahn live in this wrestling fantasy world.

He was getting go away heat before he left.
All he needed to do was turn heel and ride it out for awhile then organically come back as a Babyface. Omega, Danielson, Mox, Jericho, Punk have all been heels or babyfaces at some point in their career. I don't understand why Cody believes he's above turning heel. Dude really bought into his own hype.
Please let it be a Supershow with New Japan or a streaming deal with HBO Max.
Thanks for all the updates, everyone. Very informative thread.
This was the spot that Kenny was talking about in his wrestling observer interview that gave him vertigo. I remember watching this match. It was at the G1 tournament in 2017. Okada caught him flush with a dropkick then landed on the side of Kenny's head. At the time I didn't realize Kenny got vertigo from that spot. So from 2017 up until he lost the belt to Hangman at "Full Gear" this past November 2021 he's been wrestling with vertigo. Wow.
PS: Okada has the best dropkick in the business.

Ok...
I'm gonna ask it and you all correct if I'm waaaaaaay off base here but:
Is Japanese wrestling better than American wrestling

There's no definitive answer to that question because both American and Japanese wrestling have their pros and cons. It really comes down to what you prefer. If you're a guy like me who loves workrate/match quality and more of a sports presentation then Japanese wrestling is King in that department. If you're a guy who likes character work, promos and storylines then American wrestling is the way to go. I personally love both American and Japanese wrestling. I also love Mexican wrestling (Lucha Libre).

Yeah Mexican Lucia libre wrestling is number 1 for me.
For me the answer is "No" and it's not even close.Ok...

The Japanese wrestling I've seen, even the "7-star classics" Meltzer only gives to Japanese matches, is a bunch of high spots with little selling, almost no storytelling, and bland characters.
It's a preference thing in the end, but definitely not for me
Lol
