Tonikan is shaking right now.
>>14947568Muta vs NakamuraUtami vs ShiraiAJ returns to JapanBushiroad has gotten so bad all the New Japan and Stardom stories have to be done outside of New Japan and Stardom
>>14947568he probably thinks this is dope and is pissed at the same time kek
holy BASED
kek what a scandalous partnership
will it outdraw all together?
>>14947639depends on the rest of the card
All this does is piss me off that Omega has only worked 1 (one) match in Japan since the New Japan partnership began. He wanted to do so much more when he was US champ again but Tony cockblocked him>That twitch stream where he said he was supposed to fight Kenoh in NOAH before the diverticulitis took him outGuess that won't be happening now either
>>14947649if he cared so much about working in Japan he shouldn't have left in the first place.Kenny wanted to have his cake and eat it, he deserves the pain that he's in.
>>14947568NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>14947649We're in a brave new world. It could still happen. Maybe in NJPW on neutral ground.
>>14947568Holy shit
Kino incoming
>>14947661>he shouldn't have left in the first place.I spend more time thinking about his hypothetical 2019 in New Japan than any other what-if in wrestling>gedo had booked him to beat tanahashi at WK13, becoming the first gaijin to win the Wrestle Kingdom main event>would’ve headlined MSG with okada>was meant to have jay white’s spot in the gold double dash>would’ve worked an actual feud with naito that wasn’t centered around the G1>would’ve gotten the big Wrestle Kingdom match with Ibushi that he’d always wantedAll he had to do was stick around for one more year. Fuck.
>>14947661nice abandonment issues
>>14947568AJ is gonna steal the show AGAINHow did Tony botch this guy worse than Punk?
redpill me on NOAH. is this bases or cring
the gay community might not like it but for the rest of us yeah I'm thinking this is based
>>14947680>It could still happenHonestly the Kenoh thing doesn't bother me anywhere near as much as all the New Japan stuff he still hasn't gotten to do. And when he does finally recover all he's going to do is more jobs after everyone said that was only a precaution in case he had decided to leave AEW during contract negotiations last year
this is how you do a partnership
>>14947568ok now this is epic
>>14947568Cody vs Shiozaki next
>>14947568 tony sent over blake christian doe lmao
>>14947868and willlow nightingale lol
Rock vs MutoMarufuji vs CenaCody vs ShiozakiShinsuke vs KaitoPunk vs KenohRandy vs SugiuraREAL vs Alpha Academy and Creed BrosJudgement Day vs GLG
>WWE sends AJ and Io to Noah and Marigold to help boost ticket sales>AEW poaches all of NJPW's top talent and sends a fat shitter no one cares about to Stardom to beat one of their top starsFuck Tony Khan
>>14947695He made the right decision though.. He's pushing 40, was clearly gassed and broken down. ATM Tony offered him a huge paycheck, more than he has ever made in his life, and I'm sure he got equity in the company as an EVP. Fuck fake fighting, pay me.
>>14947568Between Vince and TK, who's shaking harder watching this crossover?
>>14947938Kenny wanted to have his cake and eat it, he deserves the pain that he's in.
>>14947928Have you seen the G1?NJPW already bury themselves
>>14947568Tonikan is currently shoot suicide diving
>singles match>AJ is marriedwow explain this
>>14947928They made Moxley their top guy, it doesn't get any worse than that
>>14948039I feel sorry for Moxley, he wants to be le badass hardcore legend shooter but the only thing he does that anyone reacts to is shield references
>Largest promotion in the west partners with 2nd largest promotion in the east>2nd largest promotion in the west partners with largest promotion in the eastWWE will win this battle. Because they don’t shoehorn this shit into the main shows and have jackoff sessions with Tanahashi
>>14948069There is no battle, NJPW got so big in the past decade than no one cared about WWE or any other promotion, its like if WWE got less popular so would AEW and all other american promotions. The AEW partnership was very bad but i don't believe a partnership with WWE would have been a lot better, NJPW simply couldn't afford having their talent losing against talent from other companies.
>>14948110NOAH and Marigold all air on Wrestle Universe, which is owned by CyberFight/Abema, who air WWE in Japan, expect this to happen a lot more
>>14948110Builds hype for WWE's house shows, WWE talent get to wrestle workrate matches like they've been wanting to do and NXT rookies can go on excursion to learn how to work.
>>14948110WWE is going to tour Japan soon and they probably want to increase company's presence in that country in order to hold a PPV event in Japan later on.
>>14948110>>14948128>>14948131>>14948140Asia is one of the few markets WWE hasn’t made a major impact on
>>14947661Crazy to think that if he went to WWE and stuck through the Vince era he would probably be a star now, healthy, working in Japan, able to bring in joshi, maybe even have a role in making a decent game, and be able to make a real change.
>>14948157*East Asia
Too bad Maru moves like Tana now
>>14947736nobody even knows what hes saying hes speaking in japanese kek
Cord won't like this one
>>14947568Get ready to fly, ladies and gentlemen!
>WWE does something interesting>immediately think about AEWThis is like Liverpool or Newcastle making a signing and then rushing to mock Everton or Sunderland. No WWE fans will make effort to watch this match and it'll be forgotten quicker than when Nakamura went over last year
>>14947946TK, Vince has worked with NJPW before.
>>14948067Nah, Mox gets no fucking sympathy from me. The dude was literally crying about he's the "most overlooked, disrespected, forgotten" wrestler in history. This is something he said right around winning the IWGP championship, which isn't even his greatest accolade considering he's been world champ in WWE and AEW as well. Dude shit all over Punk, but has proven time and time again that he's just as fragile.
>>14947568>Tonikan shaking>Noah airs on Abema>WWE stuff airs on Abema>WWE gets giga shit numbers on Abema and struggles on their house shows in Japan.>Abema asks WWE for help they send AJ StylesYou are here.
>>14947568Why would Big Tone care about minor league partnerships when he rules the wrestling busines?
>>14948157only on youtubemost pajeets couldn't even afford to pay for the wwe network
>>14947938He could’ve gotten all of that a year later
Gook Shit
KWAB
>>14948709ah yes, the famous wrestling crazy countries Philippines, Korea and Thailand
>>14947568The $11.99 golem will NOT be happy about this
>>14948709not in Japan?
>>14948709>>14948715it's about ABEMA's distribution network
>>14948709This isn't even true, it's available in Japan, those are just the territories with English commentary
>>14948160I doubt that healthy part. If your intestines are fucked, they are fucked, nothing you can do about it. Still I hope he recovers fully but im pretty sure he will jump back to action too soon and fuck it all up
help me! Paul-sama!send me AJ now!
>>14948709>USASo what's the problem? That is all that matters. Don't tell me...you are STILL a Eurofag?! OH NONONONONONO. Your ancestors started migrating to the New World 500 years ago. How are you STILL stuck there? What a fucking loser, lmao! AMERICAN CHADS FUCKING WIN AGAIN
Hmm..Any chance Japan gets a Raw and SmackDown episode?
>>14949065last time they had one was in 2005. Not sure if they can do that a few years down the road.
>>14948939eurochads have a brain they can use and thus always find a point of access
>>14949065Take me back...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCeSahkbDWs
>>14947568WHO
>>14947695This. Instead we got some garbage match with Moxley.
>>14947568isn't Marufuji the guy assplay stole his entire moveset from?
>>14947568what's the story
>>14947695Get help and get better taste in wrestlers.
>>14948825All Together drew like 2.5K people.
>>14949202Dream match
>>14949202AND THIS IS FOR PEARL HARBOR YOU GOOK SUMMBITCH
>>14949158classic episode LOL
>>14948709What other matches are on the card?
>>14949158>Labeled as airing from Tokyo>Actually in Saitama
>>14949730solid card for a ppv
>>14947568AJ looks so majestic here
>>14947568meanwhile Tony Khan sends Blake Christian, Jungle Boy, and Edkin
Gooks don’t want none
>>14948458>f*ck the hard camkek what a thin-skinned fake ass bitch
>>14949766bottom left trio looks like straight out of a yakuza game
>>14948939>every other country in the world is EuropeDo Americucks really?
>>14947946kidani
>>14949963fraid so
>>14947568What do our 5ch brothers think of this?
>>14949787he baptizes himself before working out
>>14949994HOLY FUCKING YEN
>>14948105>NJPW got so big in the past decade than no one cared about WWEHoly delulu
>>14948709OH NONONONONONOOOO AHAHAHAHAH
>>14949202After being forced to quit WWE, AJ is fighting THE GAY COMMUNITY in foreign lands.
>>14947568What kind of forbidden partnership is this????
kek some retard got his posts nuked hahahaha
>>14949766That's actually a great card.
>>14949213This isn't your diary lil bro
>>14947568Kek this got the discord in flames
This only makes me like Tony in a weird way since it means WWE is having to actually leave their bubble and start working with people to kill the only appeal AEW has to wrestlers who want to work Japan and Mexico
>>14949766Best card they made this year so far.
>>14947568How does big bible big brow AJ have smaller eyes than Marafuji
>>14948067>>14948458>>14949948Remember how he used to bleed every match, then he just stopped?
>>14947568Who's Noah?
>>14953329kaiba's brother from that filler arc
>>14947568bumpola fuck the discord
>>14951718they still have the local indies
>>14948436same with WCW and they had a more established relationship with NJPW. In fact, NJPW's Antonio Inoki was responsible for organizing WCW's trip to North Korea.
>>14949994Nobody cares about WWE in Japan. Raw does less views than a random clip of Evil. NOAH is a distant 4th in Japan and struggles to fill seats. This AJ match will do nothing for NOAH.
>>14949202he will finish the haiku
>>14947568
>>14954918based
>>14949766Why are there no AEW talent on this card?
>>14956126>Why are there no AEW talentfraid so
aj's gonna be real surprised when he shows up and realizes it's not a bible-based promotion
>>14949766Isnt Jake Lee the guy that almost killed the company or something.
>>14947586my wife Maika singlehandedly carrying Bushiroad on her back
>>14947586kino card desu
>>14956440>WHERE'S THE DAMN ARK
AEW is literally irrelevant
>>14947568WHAT'S THE STORY???????
>>149475682000s nostalgia the match
>they do this now when aj change his theme
>>14947568I get why it Marufuji was chosen but anyone who actually follows Japanese wrestling knows that he's so washed and has been for like 10 years now, hoping for AJ to pull something watchable out of him, the last match between Kenta & Marufuji was the biggest disappointment ever so not an optimist
