Are you supposed to watch the fifteen 6-man-tag matches that open every New Japan show?
no
>>16351549Why do they do them?
>>16351556to set up stories
>>16351582So you are supposed to watch them
>>16351518Nah but from 2015-2019 they were pretty chill. Not necessary at all, but were a nice warm-up for the last 4 or so matches.Also they kinda got you hyped for the block match between the main guys in the multi man.
>>16351593im basically sayin you could ignore them
>>16351518The only reason to ever watch a 6 man new jamal tag match was for the novelty of watching some jobbing shitter like yano or honma get a pity comedy pin.
>>16351556the real answer is that it's a touring business and the local yokels want to see all their favorite stars, but those guys can't constantly be working all singles matches
>>16351518No. Japanese wrestling still books like a 1970s territory, you don't have to watch everything to keep up with it
>>16351582>nu japan>stories lol
>>16351556Like >>16351641 said, it's about touring and giving the people what they want.They don't use them to "set up stories" as much as they do to "give a light preview" of a match up that will be coming on one of the next few shows.
Yeah, it has not been fun at all this tour.
>>16351688yes they do have stories in njpw just because you cant see a piledriver in wwe doesnt mean njpw is just a in-ring show
This is already boring as fuck
>>16351775But enough about your sex life.
>>16351757Yes, Faction A vs faction B, the same shit "story' they have been telling for 10 years
>>16351808this has rarely happened in the last couple of years
>>16351808>Yes, Faction A vs faction B, the same shit "story' they have been telling for 10 years
>>16351825If you say so, no one watches this shit
>>16351853I watch it and think it's great. Really excited for Wrestle Kingdom, it's gonna be sick.
>>16351853>no one watches this shitof course an e-drone dont watch actual wrestling
>>16351826Chaos and Bullet Club have been boring new jamal factions longer than the coconut niggers not to mention longer than youve been alive.
>>16351556They are ran by the yakuza, many pay days to be had.
>>16351889Chaos hasn't done anything as a faction in like 8 years
I think we can all admit the only thing worth watching from modern new Japan was Honma mania, and even that I think was over a decade ago.
>>16351889chaos isn't even a real faction anymore. faggot ass 18er
>>16351873I am too. I watched the Historic X-Over show. I don't usually watch Stardom but I was so impressed with Mayu, and I'm excited for her Wrestle Kingdom match.
>>16351556To get people excited to get to their seats late so they can be extra quiet.
>>16351518Yes
