All Japan Pro Wrestling Discussion Thread

Would you agree AJPW has been better than NOAH the last few months bc they thought so

 

[Alexa]

Eh, depends on what you are talking about. As for the "weekly" shows and such I would give All Japan a slight edge, but when it comes to main shows I give it to NOAH, but All Japan is close. The one thing I will say about All Japan that I like more than NOAH is they know who to push and when. Unlike NOAH, who wants HAYATA to be a thing

Yep. A lot of promotion and even wrestlers tend to pick songs that just sound good, lol.

Spoiler: AJPW result

Yuma Aoyagi is the new Triple Crown Champion.

All three of AJPW, NJPW, and NOAH's top championships are held by wrestlers who came out of the AJPW system, which is a wild stat.

Baba smiling right now

Sounds right. When he was in charge AJPW wasn't doing the best and almost closed.
