    10 years of WWEForums

    I miss wrestling forums. These days the Facebook groups, subreddits or discord chats or whatever just don't have the same vibe. Had a lot of fun here. In fact if it wasn't for this website maybe I wouldn't have gotten into NJPW (or AJPW, thanks again Stopspot by the way), and I ended up working...

    Jay White is great. His promos on this tour have all been fantastic, especially the one after the first Sapporo show.

    Understanding NJPW Promos?

    Kojima's promo was very good, Tenzan's was also very emotional and very good, Taichi's was fantastic, Makabe calling Cody Rhodes "SHIT DICK" was the best moment for him in all of 2017 and Suzuki's promo, despite already being fun to watch just based on his voice inflection, is amazing when...

    Understanding NJPW Promos?

    I complained about it on at least three forums this week, and apparently someone in NJPW picked up on it: Yeah, there's an English option for NJPW World but it's a very poor translation.

    Understanding NJPW Promos?

    Well, there are three options: -Learn japanese (I'm doing it, so far can't understand much but I'll get there. -Rely on Twitter translators as mentioned above, I think chris charlton (@reasonjp) does that at least for the in ring promos/important backstage stuff -Join me in marveling at the...

    Billy Corgan's NWA

    I've enjoyed these videos the NWA has produced. Props to Corgan on being a money mark for the long run. That is what I imagine as a best case scenario for my life on the long run, personally. Hopefully this thing works out for him and he can at least get the NWA some respect on an indy level...

    I hope AJPW does an awesome number when they go back. I think they would've done a better number if Kento was in the main event or if the Suwama/Doering build had been better.

    All Japan - The House Baba built

    Oh yeah, it's totally understandable when you think about it, it's just that I started watching AJPW last year and it feels weird to see Kento lose at all. I really like what they're doing with Kento and Joe. Ever since Doering came back, he faced Miyahara many times but couldn't beat him once...

    I see. Yeah, I was thinking that was likely going to be the case which sadly isn't a surprise given the fact they can barely provide a fucking proper English interface, I was just confirming that I wasn't missing some wacky trick or something. Thanks.

    New Japan Pro-Wrestling General Discussion Thread

    So, for the fellas who have NJPW World... is it possible to actually search for an old match, say, Tanahashi vs Okada and get anything or is their search system just rotten and I have to go through one man's entire match listing to find it?

    Well now I almost forgive him for that atrocious haircut.
