NJPW G1 Climax 34 - July 20 - August 18, 2024

[Roy Mustang]

SANADA vs Newman was there. Commentary makes me wonder if his story throughout is going to be being too much like Ospreay.

Now time for something that intrigues me BIG MEATY MEN SLAPPING MEAT

 

[Apoho Creed]

I will say this Newman needs to find his own way as a Wrestler inside in the Ring. Ospreay being a Mentor is great and all but you need your own niche ask Narita where that got him trying to be a second rate Shibata.

 

[Roy Mustang]

Henare vs Boltin did not let me down. Very fun HOSS match. Glad Henare is getting more wins this time around it seems. Guy is not given enough credit for how good he is

G1 logic tells me naito n Finlay win their blocks lol

 

[Apoho Creed]

Henare vs Oleg went about like I thought it would go. Alot of Power stuff but when you see enough New Japan Shows I don't get overly impressed by the same stuff I've seen them do in Tag Matches.

Here comes my homie Gabe Kidd!

 

[Roy Mustang]

Gabe Kidd plays the perfect chav

 

[Apoho Creed]

You gotta love Gabe Kidd he'll fight anyone, anywhere, anytime including that goof Hiromu.

 

[Roy Mustang]

Khan vs Kidd is a super fun brawl. Time to skip ahead cause fuck house of torture bollocks

 

[Apoho Creed]

Gabe Kidd never follows the rules neither does Khan which is why I dug their Match together.

 

[Apoho Creed]

And this is why New Japan to me is in the dumper. ELP sells a worked injury with perfection and works around it with his skils and gets his Finisher in and still loses to Narita.

 

[Roy Mustang]

Shota fighting through the barrage to win was great. Match of the G1 so far. Time to see if Sabre can carry 2024 Naito

 

[Roy Mustang]

ZSJ vs Naito was a good match but Sabre winning makes me sad because I don't think he wins the whole thing now. Sabre holding that title looks so right

 

[Apoho Creed]

Umino, Sabre JR, and Tsuji winning who would of thought I would see that. A little too heavy handled to see Sabre JR beat Naito making him 0-2 in the Tourney and not be smart enough to know Sabre JR is not winning the G1 Climax. New Japan tried Omega, White. Moxley and for some reason none of them feel right enough to keep the Title on them for too long. They better figure out this G1 Climax I know that for sure.

Takeshita vs Cobb was fucking awesome

 

[Chris]

ZSJ/Newman also very good, would recommend them both
