OKADA SHOOTS ON NJPW MANAGEMENT
This somewhat puts in the perspective him leaving. Tony probably just made him feel more valuable and wanted
There’s a ton of jokes to be made, but I imagine this has to be part of the reason why they lost Kenta Suzuki Naito SANADA maybe evil etc and something needs to change because they’re not just losing people to one company they’re losing people in every direction. They’re losing people to other companies within Japan. They lose people to WWE. They lose people to AEW. God forbid TNA continues their success and also starts outbidding them for people. Something does need to change and if I cut who is right there in the thick of it and was there the entire time is saying that it feels different now they should probably at least in some part listen to that.
>>19670818based tone
>>19670825who exactly is njpw management?
>>19670818>>19670823>>19670828Thoughts on Tony Khan? I'll start. Human
>>19670818Well, NJPW upper management just sold out the Tokyo Dome while Tony Khan can't even sell out an e-sports arena.
>nooo why didn’t upper management give me a hug
>>19670836They literally had to bring Okada and Takeshita because they are incapable to build their own stars.
If you believe the dirt sheets, this is actually how it went down.>Be Okada.>Tell management that you won’t put over the young guys because they need more time.>(you are in fact planning to leave at the end of your deal).>Tell management that you will be sticking around and shake their hand (you were never going to stay).>Leave while refusing to put anyone over.>Shit on NJPW in interviews post-exit.>Refuse to work wrestle dynastyHurr durr, why is management mad at me?Is this nigger shoot retarded?
>>19670842Tony Khan has Okada & Takeshita every week.What's his excuse?
>>19670833Kidani / Gedo / Dick Togo / Ohbari
>>19670847japan is small. easier to get to tokyo.
>>19670833autistic
We don't love traitors in Shin Nihon. Go back to Collision... BITCH!
>>19670852but naito showed up
>>19670848They need to bring in the dude running Stardom to try and get some young guys over.
>>19670847AEW at worst does 4 or 5 times the numbers of NJPW.Like they are not in the same dimension
>>19670859No 10 milly?
>>19670859AEW Collision just got outdrawn by Maki Itoh's debut in Stardom.
>>19670859Console warriors are shoot retarded.
>>19670853He didn't go to AEW so it's okay
>>19670863random collision at the esports venue vs stardom's anniversary show
>>19670831Run of the mill Japanese salaymen, they are from a completely different corporate culture than wrestling so they don't understand that they alienate the talent by treating them as just run of the mill employees
>>19670869well good thing okada went to aew and not wwe otherwise he wouldnt have been booked in njpw like ol nakamura
>>19670874>wwe out of nowhere no comment
>>19670859Last I heard NJPW did 1700 average attendance, AEW does like 2-3k>>19670848NJPW went downhill when they switched from Gedo and Jado being the guys to some weird 'team'. You can tell Okada enjoyed being out there with Gedo. What was the thinking? 'Good job guys, you built the company up to a new boom period and made us relevant again... You're demoted'
>>19670876e-tard
They really fucking don't?The last 6 shows (not counting the 2 PPV's)AEW Collision #127 - 1.322AEW Dynamite #327 - 2.951AEW Collision #126 - 1.338AEW Dynamite #326 - New Year's Smash 2025 - 2.292AEW Worlds End 2025 - 8.968AEW Collision #125 - Christmas Collision 2025 -1.511AEW Dynamite #325 - Dynamite On 34th Street 2025 - 1.51110925NJPW New Year Dash !! 2026- 3.523NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 20 In Tokyo Dome - 46.913NJPW Road To Tokyo Dome 2025 - Tag 3 - 1.515NJPW Road To Tokyo Dome 2025 - Tag 2 - 1.323NJPW Road To Tokyo Dome 2025 - Tag 1 - 1.291NJPW World Tag League 2025 - Tag 17 -2.686NJPW World Tag League 2025 - Tag 16 - 1.42311761>>19670879NJPW runs house shows, AEW does not. which would bring that number down. and AEW's PPV are a big draw. if you did AEW vs NJPW biggest 8 shows that month. I feel like at this point NJPW would win.
>>19670818AEW vs. Bushiroad is a douche vs. turd situation.
>NJPW does house showsJAPANESE CULTURE experts are fucking hilarious
>>19670818You can say a lot of negative things about Tony Khan but you can't deny he loves to hug and touch his employees
>>19670856A large part of the reason NJPW is so shit is because Bushiroad management blatantly cares more about Stardom. It's been a gradual thing since they bought it and with NJPW down during COVID and it's main ebento and even upper midcard guys getting old, they switched focus to Stardom because its roster is younger and full of pretty girls so they feel it's more marketable. Double reinforced by most of the young guys shitting the bed both on their own and due to bad booking. Also probably helps that Stardom's wrestlers are likely cheaper ane unlike with NJPW their biggest competitor (TJPW) is still well below them and can't pay what Stardom does even at Stardom's cheaper rates. So why focus on NJPW when you can get a bigger ROI for cheaper?Basically Stardom has been good for Bushiroad but a poison pill for NJPW.
>>19670903Insane that they got Saya the MVP award this year.
Based Tony giving him the respect he never got for being at the top for years
>>19670888What are untelevised Road To shows if not house shows huh bitch?
>>19670818This reads like some retard from here wrote it, especially the line "but in New Japan? Crickets."
>>19670856Surprisingly Taro Okada is good.
>>19670923Yeah, those big awards are basically paid so them making that award go to her tells you where their priorities are.
>>19670836It’s gonna be incredibly fun shitting on NJPW fans in 2027 when they don’t have a generational retirement and they go back to normal levels. You didn’t deserve that attendance. Places like WWE who can sell 50k without cheap bullshit deserve it(booking wembly once a year is cheap bullshit). Not the president retiring to artificially bump attendance to make himself look useful at his job.
>>19670818TK is such a good guy
>>19670885Bit weird to count the Christmas shows given I think that means you counted that attendance twice I don’t remember how AEW taped it. Should compare a different month to better show how NJPW often beats AEW without repeat attendances.
>PREASE TERR ME I AM GOOD WRESRA I HABU FIBU STARU MATCHU BANGARINO !!!
Why are professional wrestlers so thin skinned and insecure? I could give a shit less if my boss even knows my name as long as he keeps paying me and giving me raises.
>>19670903All thanks to Saya>>19670923She earned it
>>19670846This. He was a shit bag on the way out and now he wants a pat on the ass when he shows up?
>>19670818>>19670823B-B-B-BUT STINKY NEET RETARDED UNLOVED FEDOPHILES TOLD ME IT WAS A BAD THING TO SHOW LOVE AND APPRECIATION TO WRESTLERS AND HE ONLY MADE THEM FEEL AKWARD AND EMBARRASED!!
AEWtists are reduced to console warring with nujamal huh. Wrestling fucking sucks now
>>19670836>Well, NJPW upper management just sold out the Tokyo DomeYou can thank Big T for that.
>>19671188AEW Chads own the wrestling business, dronie. Mind your place while we teach our lil bros some manners.
>>19670818Professional Wrestling has the dumbest fans. How did this get over 400 updoots on reddit. Look at the timestamps and the wording how could anyone believe this is genuine. Anyone could just write some halfway believable script in paint then post it and idiots will believe it.
>>19670833Dog Wanker
>>19670818>be our emotional support dogs like the billionaire autist I ditched you guys for or else
>>19670846Absolutely on point. Nooj wanted Nakamura, not the guy they spent 10 years building up as the ace of pro wrestling so he could go be a comedy midcarder abroad and have fun(tm).>they didn't tell me i had a great matchWhat a fucking mark dork. It would almost be endearing if he hadn't buried every possible successor before selling out
If OkadaIbushi NaitoKenta Minoru SuzukiSanadaAll say NJPW management is a problem and treats their wrestlers like they don't have value, maybe they're the issue? Just take your AEW hate glasses off All the top guys in New Japan are leaving, guys who have been wrestling in New Japan for over a decade. Guys who have main evented multiple Tokyo Domes and been the World Champion. There was a time when this was thought to be an impossibility. Even fucking EVIL is leaving now. There is a deeper root problem here. They've reached a state where they need a Tanahashi retirement tour and Okada to sell out the Tokyo Dome, this should not be happening
>>19671436citation on KENTA, Suzuki and SANADA
>>19670818>nobody from management or the office patted our asses after the show and it hurt my feelingsHoly shit was Okada always this much of a little BITCH?
Only Love and Kindness will save wrestling.Simple as.
>>19671722:)
>>19670823Okada decided to go to AEW at this very moment. He just needed a hug.
>>19671100I can't believe he said this, but he did
>>19670818Betting everything on the Bucks telling him to shit on nujapan while glazing Tony because jesus this is so pathetic he makes a guy who sold out like Phil look normal
>>19670818>muh handshakethats what the money is for you dumb nigga, goddamn business is full of snowflakes
>>19670818Translation: they all hate AEW and resent him for the betrayal
>>19670818Evil company
>>19670846Shut the fuck up. Okada refused to "put over" your shitty lil young lions because none of them were ready. None of them. Okada gave his blood, sweat, heart and soul to NJPW! Okada is the sole reason why NJPW had its "Golden Era". All Okada asked for was a "Hey, Okada-kun! Great job! We love ya!". That was all he fuckin' asked. But noooooo. Your old Japanese dads have too much ego and pride, right? They are just too goddamn stubborn, right? This is what happens. Wrestlers want a boss like Tony Khan. Wrestlers want money and praise that Tony Khan gives them.Don't cry when Gabe Kidd leaves next month. Now you know why all your precious NJPW wrestler keeping leaving for AEW. Tony is NOT poaching them. He is simply a better boss and a better person than you NJPW dark mafia folks. Wrestlers are human too. They are not your circus monkeys. They are just not.
The amount of obvious false flagging and pretending to watch/care about NJPW in this thread is hilariousLike the one above me for example
The amount of NJPW samefagging by Tsujischizo in this thread is hilarious. Like the one above me for example.
>>19671080>Places like WWE who can sell 50k without cheap bullshit deserve it
>>19672215The reality is that I know I've only posted in this thread a single time. And you know how many times you've posted in this thread.Just you, knowing that internally that you are a pathetic loser, gives me more than enough satisfaction.
Uh oh. Tsujischizo doing a melty again. I guess he got really mad because someone told him the truth about his shitty NJPW. Oh nononono. Even Okada himself shat on NJPW. No wonder he is having a panic attack. He is literally sweating from his armpits right now.
>>19671080>in 2027 when they don’t have a generational retirement and they go back to normal levels.God the Edrone projection here is hilarious.Reminder Drew beat Cody for the World Title in front of hundreds AND HUNDREDS of empty hard cam seats yesterday.Jhon is gone. Careful throwing those those stones from inside that glass house.
>"YOU DON'T 'DESERVE' THAT ATTENDANCE"what kinda screeching virginial faggotry is this ?
obviously okada went to aew because of the fucking money, but there is something about what he says about being told 'thank you, we appreciate what you do', does it boil down to wanting being coddled? maybe, but kazu being frank and revealing that no one bothering you backstage after retiring the president to even ask 'hey you good?' seems like a major oversight
He left the company to go play with his friends and then comes back because Tony strong armed NJPW into letting him retire Tanahashi.Was he expecting a heroes welcome back? He burned every bridge on his way out what the fuck did he expect
>>19670818This shit isn't even believable, the wording is all wrong for a native Japanese speakerEven if it is believable, why the fuck would I care if some dork gets an ass-pat from his boss or not>>19670842>>19671080>>19671198Aaron Wolf? He drew that.
It’s your job to wrestle. Why does management have to suck your dick for doing it? Bro you don’t even work there.
>>19670818>NJPW doesn't bother going and making nice with the faggot traitorBased
>>19672424You're a retard if you think any of that even happened, the wording is all wrong for a japanese speaker
>>19672302the boom period started without John, your company is nothing without Tanahashi. Have fun having 18k in the dome fag boy while mania will have 50k back to back beautiful nights in Riyadh.
>>19672610Aaron Wolf is the larger piece of the pie chart as to why they drew 50k, more than Tanahashi's retirement. Your cope and tears is hilarious tho keep it going. "You don't 'deserve' to draw 50k" What kinda retard shit is that
