This might sounds a little hyperbolic, but this match was the mortal wound for AEW. Its the antithesis of the "NJPW Golden Era" style that AEW has bastardised and made their house style. Two home grown talents, presenting a modern evolution of wrestling, which already makes AEW look outdated. And for a company that built its brand on being a fresh alternative, thats a worrying postion to be in.

Flips, finisher spam, reversals and 1 count kick outs are boring now. No wonder MJF has been so shook on X (formerly known as Twitter). He knows his days are numbered

Those of us who like it like it because it's the opposite of 2017 era NJPW, which is overdone and stale now.
The match was simple. stuck to the fundamentals, never left the ring, didn't involve fancy flips, didn't use ref bumps, didn't lean into chop fests... tied in with the build of being the finals match of the biggest tournament of NJPW's year, it was just really refreshing for those of us who regularly follow New Japan.
Speaking for myself, I'm burned out on all that other crap.

>>21034684
very well said my friend AEW DOES fucking suck

What's funny is that the bangerino style, the AEW style, the one count kick outs, delayed selling, the finisher spam, the reversal spam, etc, is already a bastardization of the 90s AJPW King's Road style.

90s AJPW had dives, high spots, neck drops, you choppa me spots, but what AEW misses is what NJPW demonstrated so well in this recent match: the struggle for every move to land. In AJPW, guys are fighting out of every hold.

When Misawa gets somebody in a Tiger Driver position, they will try to fight out of it for like 2-3 minutes straight. There will be multiple attempts to even get an opponent into that position because they're fighting so hard to try and get out of it.
In AEW, guys just transition smoothly from big move to big move and they stumble around a little and then lay on the ground after no-selling 5 lariats from each other so the audience knows when to clap.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the NJPW Dojo is the best in the world because it teaches fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals. Eventually, it will hatch guys who understand the value of them and that's what has happened here.
>>
>>21035753
Some of it is that we've been watching both of these guys since they were young lions and many of us felt they weren't getting appropriate pushes in favor of the other younger guys and the dads. It was cathartic in addition to what >>21035761 stated. Also NJPW has been leaning incredibly heavily on outside malarkey. Every fucking match has someone thrown into the audiences chairs. It's fine when done limited (and the crowds do get a kick out of it) but its every show.

He would have made for a great heel manager who only wrestled sometimes, like a Bobby Heenan type but still capable of putting on full matches when the angle called for it. He's always had go away heat but they could have harnessed it that way. Just give him a faction of miscreants to mouthpiece for.

Scientifically speaking, the goal of wrestling is to get over, because getting over is what makes money for you via you being a draw. Jeff Jarret may never have got over with the fans, but since he still managed to draw millions of dollars out of the people in this list, even though they were promoters and bookers, does that mean in the end, that Jeff Jarret was one of the most over people in wrestling?

I just found out this guy is buried in an unmarked grave at Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx. Wtf kind of bullshit is that? This dude wasn't exactly Rikidozan but he was the first EVER Japanese professional wrestler and even staged the first ever puroresu event in Japan in the 1880s. The shows flopped so he came back over here only to die in poverty as a destitute a few years later. I'm thinking of starting a campaign to get him a memorial or something up there so he at least gets some sort of recognition as a pioneer for puroresu

To me it is. He will find old newspaper archives to find match listings when researching the topics. The main thing I like is as he goes through the history the topics of "when did kayfabe begin," or "what was the first match with a proper ring" and other mark questions like that come up. Apparently early on in newpaper reports he found there was a belief that pro wrestling was fake by some from the start.
>>
>>21035691
Yeah that revelation killed all the mystique about the golden age of wrestling, here I was thinking old timers were marks to all of it and thought wrestling was real just to find out they were always aware of the booking like me and those UFC faggots
>>
>>21035707
I'm sure that at the beginning of any type of competitive sport's history there were people that believed/knew it was fake from the start. I wouldn't be surprised if at the beginning of basketball or american football there were some fans that thought it was completely fake. Gambling and betting was really big and out in the open during the beginning stages of pro wrestling based on what he says so I suppose it makes sense people were skeptical on how real it was.
