    It was a good show that brought the wrestling world in a different direction. I mark for Okada nearly like I marked for Flair... but that honestly makes the matches they lose the better

    If an educated guy like me is a mark for NJPW, that just proves how good NJPW happens to be.

    Got paid yesterday so I was able to renew NJPW World. I saw today's matches and Ishii vs Goto was AWESOME :)

    Sometimes I don't know who I am rooting for until the match gets going and I see how I react to the near falls. Back in the day, I always rooted for Ric Flair and Roddy Piper. There are a couple other guys I always root for, and Okada is one of them. Omega and Naito... I just don't know. I...

    We don't necessarily need spoilers and you won't get in trouble for not using them. I was just trying to be polite to anyone who might have yet to watch it :) And Yeah, I think I am closer to agreeing with you about what I want to win.

    Every year I forget how all encompassing this tournament can be... wow... I guess I should have known that Omega/Okada III would be a deciding match for block B... but looks like we're getting Omega vs Tanahashi... I couldn't imagine they will do Omega vs Naito, although I would like to see it...

    Daryl's not dead. He'll reform as a much bigger Daryl and will headline the January 4 Dome Show in a "Rip Your Opponent To Shreds Match."

    Oh I watch a ton of wrestling. I started watching GFW again... was a huge fan of TNA from 2002 to 2010. I also watch LU, various NWA promotions, ROH, several independent promotions not NWA affiliated, Shine, All Japan, Dragon Gate, Noah. The guy in my avatar is a guy who has only been in ROH...

    Night one was definitely good and I agree that the MOTN was Ibushi vs Naito. They had great chemistry. But it was nice having a show where I felt entertained throughout the entire thing. It shows that my love for pro wrestling is still strong and it's just certain promotions that bug me.

    I have this nagging suspicion that Kenny Omega may pull this off.

    Actually I thought I had rated it 4 3/4. It should read, "I wouldn't rate it 5*... maybe **** 3/4." "I wouldn't rate it 5, maybe 3 3/4" actually doesn't make much sense.

    Honestly, I really enjoyed the finals. It really was the only high part of the card for me. Yeah it was a lot of near falls but we knew that going in. I won't be the first to comment on the outcome because I know I'll spoil it for someone and I don't wanna do that. But I was entertained. I...

    I'm very burnt out on tag matches so I definitely understand that. There is an overabundance of wrestling out there now.

    I think they're both capable of putting on a G1 finals caliber match. Hopefully they will do so and it'll change your mind. You definitely don't come across as being close minded to the possibility :) You watching it live or later?

    I'm quite looking forward to the finals. Not sure how I want it to turn out or what, but I like seeing one guy in the finals who hasn't been there before and someone who hasn't in a while. I still don't get into Elgin. I don't have anything against him but he really doesn't do anything for...

    The G1 Climax always completely burns me out on tag team wrestling. It's not my favorite type of match to begin with but GOD, all of these tag matches!

    New Japan Pro-Wrestling General Discussion Thread

    Haha I'm happy with it. I think one of the biggest problems with the G1 lately has been the lack of something different. And that match was great. **** I love that he was criticizing the audience for only chanting his name when he won and they started chanting it. Honestly I'm so much...

    Just have to watch day 17 and I'll FINALLY be caught up for day 18 and the finals. It was a bit difficult keeping up this year. I even had to avoid this thread so I wouldn't get spoilers. The G1 can a marathon for us nearly as much as it is for the wrestlers too.
