This is the destination for all based webms, brotherOn tonight's docket: NJPW Sakura Genesis, as well as hard-hitting action from NOAH, DDT and AJPW!
>>17491783can you please do Penta walking in from 1:40 to 1:48https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9hiob6
>>17491830Will do once I'm done with the stuff I'm working on myself. Thanks for the request!
What a show Sakura Genesis was. One of the best NJPW's run front-to-back in a while.
thanks for being around, webm-kun. I always appreciate seeing you in the catalog.
I love the way this is shot.>>17491998Thank you for popping into my thread, anon. Without the kind words I wouldn't be posting here.
>>17491783>NJPW Sakura GenesisI actually missed that last week. I think I'll relax this weekend and catch up on it. It's been a while since I've had a comfy NJPW night.
>>17492039I hope you enjoy the show! For your sake I'd save the thread for tomorrow since tonight will be mostly if not purely highlights from Sakura Genesis.
>>17492115No worries, friendo. Post away and I'll keep the thread open and check it out later.
These webms are all dedicated to TOP GUY NAGAI poster.
Is SANADA gonna become like EVIL/Dick Togo now where he conceals his power for 95% of matches and bust it out just to work the marks?
>>17492240I really liked them working Yuya wrenching the arm for like two minutes, good spotI desperately want to see EVIL & SANADA win the tag belts again
MILANO NOOOOOOO>>17492257>I really liked them working Yuya wrenching the arm for like two minutes, good spoYeah, I agree. Yuya and Oiwa working extended wristlock/headlock spots are a huge reason why they're both two of my favorites on the roster today.>>17492257>I desperately want to see EVIL & SANADA win the tag belts againI expected them to challenge if Naito and Hiromu retained, but now that that didn't happen I don't know. I'd love to at least see a return of the tag team even though I wouldn't want them to shoot up the card at all.
>>17491783Thanks for the update, webmtranny
Thanks for the bump, anon-kun.
>>17491830Here you go, anon! Thanks for the request.
>this fast a tapI'm thinking we're back, Heat Stormers.
>>17492498Brilliant, thank you!!
I like the setup for this.
Based finish, but should've hit him with the beatdown into shoot 5G blaster directly into the nuts for maximum heat.
This shit would make ME turn heel
I really like the blocked Twist and Shout from this.
SHO LOOK OUT
I wasn't huge at all on this gimmick in the War Dogs because it felt like a huge part of the deluding of the stable identity, but I could physically feel that opinion do a 180 as soon as he turned on them. It just makes so much sense.
>all that spit filling up the camera lens
This is such a neat reversal.
Ouch.
>>17492858there's a HEAT STORM comin
I really liked the early grappling-focused part of this match a lot more than the big bomb-trading second half. Takeshita is really good at that stuff but it doesn't at all play into Oiwa's strengths.
>>17491783Most Based poster on this dreadful board. Thank you Webm-San
>>17496262Thank you for hanging out, anon.
>>17496299All I’m asking for this week is 10:25-10:42 of Kurt Vs Brock for the IGWP Belthttps://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5ntlss
YENOLA
>>17496412This? It's a bit crusty but I made it in 2021. Might remaster the whole match this weekend if I have time.
>>17496412>>17496553wasn't Brock holding the title hostage at this time and Angle was the only one he would drop to or am I misremembering?
Downright fucking silly how good this move is.>>17496598I don't know the full lore, but there was some fuckery with Inoki/IGF/Brock, yeah. The whole IGF story was a beautiful mess. We did get Angle vs. Tanahashi out of it so I can't be too upset.
>>17496553Fuck yes. Kurt’s Germans are the best
>stiff as a boardKino
>>17491783can you please do Lance Storm and Chris Jericho jumping from 1:18 to 1:26 and crop the sides that has the site onhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQpi__zLA-U
This is EXACTLY how the junior in a heavyweight title match should be booked.>>17497171Will do!
>>17497171Here you go!
>>17497257Marvelous, thank you!
I really don't love this move but holy shit Naito makes it look like death.
I fucking love this gimmick
>>17497360Naito really seems to love Callum for some reason. He is always working singles against him and putting him over big, selling the fuck out of his moves and bumping like crazy.I don't know what he sees in him but it's no accident that they're in the ring together so much
I'M ONTO YOU, YOU CAN'T HIDE YOUR ABILITIES FOREVER YOU OLD FUCK>>17497471>I don't know what he sees in himBeing perfectly honest I don't see it either, but that nigga can barely see his hand at an arm's length so Callum must shine REALLY bright in his eyes.
>take far too long to set up the spot you're parodyingKino evil comedy genius
49-year-old Dragon Kid still got it
>>17497459This popped me and my normie friend who was watching the G1 (I think) where he first did it a couple of years ago with me. During his entrance they happened to ask "why doesn't anyone do anything when they know HoT is going to attack them during their entrance?" and lo and behold it was revealed that Tsuji used a clone to fool them
>evil actually wrestlingThis shit works me more than his actual heel work.>>17497620The guy is actually a medical marvel. If I'm half as fit as him at 49 I'll be a happy guy.>>17497631Kino. I was actually thinking about it during the show this time, I wonder how effective the spot would be on someone who doesn't know what Tsuji looks like. I immediately clocked that it wasn't Tsuji because his finner is a once in a generation phenomenon.
>>17491783Haha time for the best thread of the week
>>17497670Happy to have you here, brother.
Kino fucking sell
>ring-to-floor knee drop (with theatrics)
Insane. Really surprised he didn't open himself up with that.
>>17497837yeah Finlay is insane with his bumps, in the NJC Final his sell of Shota's knee was crazy
>>17497842>in the NJC Final his sell of Shota's knee was crazyWebmrel?
>>17497853yeee that was it
The struggle over this is so good.
I really like this. Goto sells it so well.
>>17491783The absolute state of modern New Japan. Inoki rolling in his god damn grave.
>>17498049if he's rolling in his grave it's not because of Goto/Finlay
>>17498054Finlay as a main eventer is pretty grim, in fairness.
>>17498058would've said that a year ago, not now
>>17498065Why? He's still completely anti-dimes.
>>17498058Finlay isn't bad as a main eventer at all. Like >>17498065 said, a year I'd probably agree with you, but he's cemented himself as a terrific worker since. He makes everyone look fantastic and I'm happy he got the win. Having a heel gatekeeper alongside Goto is nice and Finlay fills that role completely.
>>17498079his title match at Sakura Genesis drew the most for that show in 4 years
>>17498081>isn't bad at all>posts a webm of something that looks shit
He's such a dork
That's all for me for tonight. I really loved this show front to back, no bad matches and few results (really only Shooter staying Hontai) that I was disappointed with. Really looking forward to see where this goes in the future. I'll be back tomorrow with highlights from NOAH, DDT and AJPW! Thank you all for hanging out tonight. Goodnight, bros.
>>17498440Goodnight, BASED webmbro. Time for the us EUbros to keep the thread bumped.
what if YOUR Strong Openweight Champion were to bump the webm thread tho
>>17497171>>17497257KINO
>>17498969Delightfully devilish, Ishii.
>>17492185>>17492115>>17492025>>17491959>>17491895>>17491853>Young Lions are better at wrestling that the main roster talent.Every damn time. Give me this shit over le epic finisher spam and everyone dressing like a clown.
>>17500389Who was Ishii's sensei? That's such a Kawada style sell, even the facial expression.
>>17500738>Who was Ishii's sensei?Riki Choshu. Choshu was Ishii's mentor and even appointed him as chairman for his company before Ishii joined NJPW. Choshu was also who encouraged Ishii to go heavyweight and likely a big reason for his NJPW signing to begin with. He was also trained by Tenryu as part of his time in WAR, and Tenryu also trained Kawada.Webmrel is a very young, still with hair on his head Ishii wrestling in CAPTURE International in 2000.
>>17492319Is this how sanada looks now? Where did all his style and coolness go?
>>17501734Excuse you, it's right there >>17495072
>>17500738>>17501694To add onto that, I had to find this moment from Choshu's final match.
And with that tangent out of the way, I'm back! I'm starting off with NOAH's 4.6 Sunny Voyage show, and then moving onto highlights from DDT Change Age and AJPW Dream Power Series. This counter's really slick.
GO GO GOGod I love Odashima.
>>17501933i like those forearms, coming overhead instead of straight into the chest
>>17502016Yeah, I always liked them too. You can hit hard as hell that way and they're really loud. I can only think of a handful of people doing them.
>>17501040is this both inoki?
Maru don't play
This one goes out to the anon who suggested using seated guards as a heel tactic a couple of weeks back.
>>17502140>hmmm today i will pull guard against ulka sasaki
>hmmm today i will shitpost against kenta>>17502198For me it's the change in his entire demeanor from "try me tough guy" to "GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE"
I'm not super crazy about Endo, but this move's sick.
Based Misawa-ist
>>17502491I miss when he wore tights
>>17502602I like the trunks on him. I don't really think he's had a miss gear-wise aside from that weird color blocking with the clown boots he had for a bit during 2022.
Next up are some highlights from DDT Change Age! As has become a tradition for me, I took the opportunity to check out what KANON was up to. Brutal stuff, really like how efficient this looks.
STRONG
STIFF
This looks uncoordinated, but in a good way. Just WILD.
KANON may have gone pastel, but he didn't go soft. Damn.
I didn't actually watch this match, but I caught this while skimming and had to.
GOD this is just the best way to start a match. Kino.
Slick.
Abe's such a goofball.
The way Abe just WRENCHES Nakamura down by the head rocks.
>>17504145>>17504220nice
Just how all these old BattlARTS-styled matches should end.
Last up is the two title matches from AJPW Power series, the event from 29.03.
HOLY FUCKING YENOLA
Has anyone in here been watching the Champion Carnival this year? I want to watch it because the lineup is stacked. Just don't know if I'll have time.
God I love this combo.
God DAMN I love the Blackout, bros.
>>17505129I'm glad Jun Saito is a decent draw but I'd like Kento to be back in the top again.
Last for today is Misawa vs. Kobashi from the 1996 Champion Carnival, 31.03.1996.>>17505145I'm not familiar enough with AJPW's title scene to really speak on that, but as a singles wrestler, I'd have to agree I prefer Kento.
>hmmm today i will chop misawa
This was the most credible start to a match focused around midsection-based offense and would keep that crown until Marufuji caught KENTA's boot going mach 2 ten years later.
Botched the order, by B
>giving your classmate and best bro flashbacks to the jumbo feudWould be meaner if it was Misawa doing it to Kobashi, but still.
God I love this counter so much.
>>17505545Really cute mirroring of this.
>SAFUKATION CHOPPU
TAIGAAAAAAAAAA
Brutal.
RARE KOBASHI
Full-on Micahels'd him.
God DAMN this first one is disgusting.
That's all for me for tonight! Next week I'll have highlights from NJPW Windy City Riot, NOAH's shows from the week as well as my personal most anticipated show of the year, We Are Battle Detectives 3. I'll see you all then! Thanks a ton for hanging out. Goodnight, bros.

>>17501694>shootstyle IshiiBased.Makes complete sense he was trained/mentored by those two. Tenryu is in my personal GOAT conversation.
>>17506082Webmanon here. Next week's thread might happen on Thursday night instead, not 100% on my schedule yet. Thought I'd update for whoever's sticking around.
