NJPW Windy City Riot - April 12, 2024

[Kairi HoHo]

A perfectly fine Tag Match with these ladies but nothing special. Mina I'm so proud of her I remember her before her Stardom days with TJPW and she's a totally different talent today vs back then.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Suzuki is going to mop the floor of Narita and most likely the House of Torture bums will help their boy win.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Narita wins like I thought he might but damn Narita has done nothing that has impressed me at all since joining up with HOT.

Vaquer and AZM really kill it in their Match for the New Japan Strong Women's Title. I'm not gonna lie I'm tired of AZM being the Bridesmaid not the Bride in the Wedding. I fear Stardom will never realize how good is AZM maybe this US Tour for AZM changes their minds. Right now for me the New Finish the Story is AZM winning a Singles Title in Stardom by the end of 2024.

Shota vs Perry was better than I thought it would be maybe we get more of that Perry going forward. Swole Daryl come on Hiromu he hasn't been a thing for you in ages why do this Comedy shit now?

My proposition:

AZM beats Saori Anou for the Wonder of Stardom belt in the summer.

Dream Queendom:

Semi-Main Event:

AZM vs Starlight Kid

Give them 20+ minutes.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Even with them doing the haha stuff Ali vs Hiromu was really good and for sure could be even better if they want to have Hiromu come into Impact for a X-Division Title shot in the future.

KENTA tagging with Connors and Gabe Kidd

Who are Kingston's partners???

 

[Kairi HoHo]

The United Empire's feud with BC will never end because of what happened to all the Wrestlers in that Cage Match. OH MY GOD HOMICIDE!

 

[Kairi HoHo]

I was fine with either Team taking the win there in the Street Fight and I'm happy as hell Gabe Kidd got the win there. They might need to run it back again with these groups again.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Kidd vs Kingston Last Man Standing for the New Japan Strong Title right???!!

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Gabe Kidd is going to beat Kingston and the shit is going to glorious!

 

[Kairi HoHo]

I'm torn with Sabre JR beating Riddle for the TV Title. When Riddle won it I knew eventually these two would dance with each other but what the purpose of giving it back to Sabre JR when clearly he wants to be in the World Title hunt. Still the Match was very good but New Japan considers me confuse me with their decisions.

Nemeth trying to go into a Chop Battle with Ishii is he smoking Crack??

First of all I like to say congrats to Moxley become IWGP World Champion. You gotta love Moxley's thirst to want to be the best and he's proven that multiple times outside of the WWE Waters clearly at this point. Still the decision to make Mox the new Champ makes no sense even if you want to put the IWGP World Title on his Son Umino. New Japan could of had Tsuji beat Naito and you have new talent ready to roll but were going with Moxley when you don't know how long he'll be able to work New Japan long term. No way he holds it a Year but it should it interesting how this going to be booked going forward.

I continue to ask myself New Japan did losing Ospreay and Okada make you forget how to book? I guess we could get Moxley vs EVIL at Forbidden Door but all roads lead to Umino winning the big one and make me cover my Shirt in Tears like I did for Cody's win over Roman on Night 2 of Wrestlemania.
