Well it starts with Ibushi, I guess

 

[Samoa Looch]

Who right away lost his next 1-on-1 against Willy Ospreay

 

[Samoa Looch]

Who lost it to Okada

 

[Samoa Looch]

Who lost it to Naito... who lost it to Zack

 

[Samoa Looch]

And then Okada again... and so on

Looking at it I get the feeling the IWGP Champion usually doesn't lose singles matches until they lose the title in one.

Looking at it I get the feeling the IWGP Champion usually doesn't lose singles matches until they lose the title in one.

typically, but they do wrestle outside of New Japan so it's possible they lost outside of NJPW

 

[Chris]

Very rarely in singles matches even in that case I'd bet tho

 

[Chris]

But I'm not doing research lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

so I worked off of this thread https://wrestlingsmarks.com/threads/pro-wrestling-lineal-championships.230543/ and at this point the TNA Lineal Champ would be....

Spoiler

HOOK. ZSJ was lineal, lost it to Christian Cage in the Casino Gauntlet at All in, who lost it to HOOK at a January Dynamite

The problem with doing anything other than traditional singles matches is the line you feel the need to draw for multimans. Bc there has to be a line or even more stuff just gets pulled together bc of royal rumble winners and stuff and it gets boring

 

[Chris]

I think 6 person single matches and under is a good rule though

 

[Samoa Looch]

I have my idea for that
