NJPW Wrestling Dontaku 2022 - May 1, 2022

I love how Hoho and I are somehow perfectly synced lmaoooo

 

[Chris]

The OG machine gun theme song oh fuck I'm so hype

Ishimori vs Despy this could be a Show stealer screw all that BC/Elite/GOD mess it has no legs to stand on long term.

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Shocked Ishimori got the win over Despy but it looked to be going that way especially when he was working on his Shoulder. Which makes me laugh because if Despy is suppose to be hurt he's not doing the Stretch Muffler. Bullet Club/HOT slurp fest on this Card I see.

 

[Chris]

Ishii/Tanahashi was fucking insane

 

[Chris]

Juice in Bullet Club is a swerve so out of left field it's not even in the same ballpark lol

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Ishii/Tanahashi was fucking insane

Yeah both will be feeling that for a Week as well as the attack from Juice Robinson. I am a fan of Juice and I went on record to say he had the potential to be this Era's Sting but that is down the toilet. Juice will be great but the New Japan booking with HOT and BC will surely bring it down I feel.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I think its looking more like HoT is getting snubbed from bc

 

[Chris]

Happy birthday Bullet Club

 

[Kairi HoHo]

Loved that closing stretch between Okada and Naito but I hate watching Matches sometimes where you know that the Challenger has a doubtful chance of beating the Champion. Jay White is back baby and even though I didn't like that dude's tweet making fun of Joel Embidd's injury with that Siakam gif he's still a great Heel to watch. I remember when New Japan put all the money on EVIL and that fell through the Roof but Jay White is the better talent all around. It would be smart that when White and Okada face each other in June most likely that he upsets him. You need to keep that momentum and if Jay loses bruh then I'm going to asking why do this bs at Dontaku.

Know, I am quite late to this, but a couple of things. Depsy v Ishimori was easily the match of the show, Ishii v Tanahashi was amazing and love how commentary brought up their feud and the history of it, Juice joining BC is pretty cool and loved it when Kevin Kelly made Jay White out to be the devil himself, and finally the fact Kevin brought up Okada originally training with Ultimo Dragon and Toryumon made me happy.

I loved Kevin assuming Jay was still in America and orchestrating all the stuff throughout the show, made him showing up at the end so much cooler

Yeah, that was pretty cool honestly and the part that really got me was when Juice was revealed to be a new member and he was "This is all that goddamn Jay White's fault" or something on that line and I was like "Yes...Jay has finally reached god tier heel." And then when he appeared at the end I was like "Oh shit...alright I love this."
