Is it an unreasonable request for the audience to understand what the characters on the show are saying.

How about they throw in some subtitles like NJPW does when they broadcast on English channels

But i think the point is Vince just told her to say some random shit in Japanese bc it sounds cool, it doesn't matter what she says. I've watched movies that have subtitles for some foreign parts and not others due to importance

I've been there.....you don't have to unless you're outside the big cities.
:WOW

I probably still would, though. At least to read Japanese. Maybe impress a Japanese girl's parents or what have you.

Imagine an Andrade that can cut a promo. He’s so god damn good in the ring.


Imagine Asuka who can cut a good promo. She’d be at the top of the card she’s that good

I mean he’s not far off. It’s what is holding Andrade back from being a star and why Asuka never gets a good main roster run.

Nah, Andrade is probably doing better by having Zelina cut his promos. She's a great mouthpiece.

I’ve watched the njpw shows before with the Japanese commentary, and even though I don’t understand a word they’re saying it’s still fun to listen to them because they get so excited and into whatever what big thing is happening.

Some people don’t like that it’s all good.

It's. Part. Of. The. Gimmick.

Well that’s a fantastic gimmick and should do wonders for her character development.

It won’t turn every segment into a “what” fest from the bewildered audience

It's funny how they always put Aleister Black and Zelina Vega on after one another :lol

For awhile I swear it was Charlotte doing something, then Andrade with Zelina would be next, and after that it was Black. :TI:

Bro they get wet if you say "konnichiwa" correctly.

That or I was getting that "oooh Indian, thought you was dead" shit I sometimes get.
