Tony won't seriously try to pursue Tsuji unless he hears about WWE wanting him.

Yota Tsuji is indeed pretty good, Nujamals. Big Tone likes him.
>>
>>18620436
As an AEW fan, I don't want Tsuji to leave NJPW. However, if Tsuji wants to get paid, I'd rather see him sign a dual contract with AEW/NJPW.

I firmly believe if ZSJ left and Gabe stayed, Gabe would get Rikidozan levels of over and save wrestling in Japan.
>>
>>18620483
Types like a jeet too lol
>>
>>18620498
He wouldn't even get Kenny levels of over
>>
>>18620498
Gabe is retarded. If he waited one more year he probably could have leveraged his popularity to get a small IWGP Heavyweight run and got Tony to add an extra Zero to his salary
>>
Insider here, Shota Umino is doing a storyline where he got raped by his father. WK Main is Shota vs Tanahashi. Title is getting defended on that week's Dynamite
>>

>Gimmick is that he's shin nihon
>Trannies out faster than Ospreay
If you're still invested in this guy, you're a tranny or a cuck. Make your choice.
>>
Swerve asked podcasters (who don't even watch NJPW now) which NJPW he should wrestle at Forbidden Door. He ended up wrestling Ospreay anyway
>>
>>18621401
Forgot to add, that this is where the "Tony wanted Tsuji to have a match at Forbidden Door" came from, because that was one of the suggestions (presumably because the podcaster saw clips of him against SANADA on Twitter)

>>18621375
Nobody is. He's too pussy to retaliate against Shingo fully for calling him out about not working Ariake.

According to retards this is brilliant booking, and will pay off handsomely for NJPW. By having a part-time AEW wrestler go over all of your heels and babyfaces it somehow elevates them eventually or something.

>>18622759
Yeah, ONE (1) guy will pin him and that'll mean the world to everybody in the company and usher a boom. Can't wait!

>>
>>18622630
You heard me
>>
>>18622812
I hope your just playing devil's advocate. This isn't the time to elevate 1 guy, the company has been gutted. They need to get as many people over right now as possible, especially seeing as the inconsistent booking for the Reiwa generation has done more harm than good. This G1 should have had 4 guys in the finals that represent the future of the company, no outsiders or established guys.

Just imagine if in the early 90's NJPW instead of pushing Muto, Chono, and Hashimoto, they brought in Sting to make them all look like chumps before beating Fujinami, Vader and Choshu. It would have stalled their progress.

When NJPW was careful, when they protected their wrestlers, tournaments and titles the company flourished. When they chased fame and abandoned their morals, the company floundered. They're floundering right now.

>>18623477
I was going to say "this is /pw/, we talk about wrestling here" but... there's really only ever 3 threads about wrestling at any given time.

The rest of the threads are usually:
24 threads about ugly women
7 threads about Nash getting raped
10 threads on why Khan sucks
2 rage bait threads about hating Hogan
4 threads about Meltzer
3 meta threads talking about why /pw/ sucks
2 off topic political threads

Recently, there's been a desperate attempt to inject joshipedo gossip and faggotry into /njpw/ threads. It's bad enough with schizos arguing about company proxy wars here but I'll never care about the dating life of wrestlers. That's not 4ch, that's lower than TMZ trash.

What good would it do at this point? Tanahashi has been treated like a chump all year, the G1 was more than evidence that a win over the "Ace" in 2025 is worthless.

If they were smart they would have had Tana beat ZSJ or Goto for the title and then pass it to the next generation's Ace babyface... of course that would require 2 things which aren't possible in 2025:

1. Tana would have to perform at a main event level for 3 or 4 defenses building to WK.
2. Gedo would have to book a younger talent consistently, which is physically and mentally repulsive to Gedo. He'd try to shove a failed schmuck like Umino or Tsuji into that spot, they'd fail, Tana's rub would be wasted.

You seem to be arguing a different point entirely.

The point being made is:
1. One company is catering to it's fans, the other company is refusing to cater to it's fans.

2. Regardless of your opinion on said fans and the respective product being offered, the only conclusion available is that the company rewarding its fans is providing a better service to said fans.

Idea for a comedy match: London-approved death match where a traditional "bobby" follows the wrestlers around and confiscates weapons before they can be used.

Match ends when one wrestler tricks the other into holding an English flag long enough to get arrested for hate crimes.

Yeah, we don't want Finlay. He's got the stink of a WWE toy on him. We learned from what happened with that Tiktok whore Stephanie Vaquer. Never again will we let future WWE toys use our Forbidden Door PPV for their advantage. This is a fucking war. No mercy.
>>
>>18637202
They retardedly thought that the nooj fans would cheer for Takeshita to beat Evil...not realizing the fanbase is built on loyalty above all else.
>>
>>18632838
the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship has only defended between 1 and 4 times between G1 and Wrestle Kingdom, if Tanahashi wins it in Kobe at the earliest, there wouldn't be a need for him to defend it 3/4 times, he could get away with 1/2 times
>>18636765
who gives a fuck about this shit?

>>18638857

I'm still not completely buying this. Seems more like a case of typical retarded Japanese cuck mentality of rewarding somebody who's been with the company a long time despite them being a shitter who doesn't offer much. Also trannyhashi obviously loves evil and thinks he's great
>>
>>18639709
and tanahashi is right; fuck you bitch
>>
>>18639709
If they had Tsuji or Yuya in that spot, they knew the crowd would at least be 80% behind the ones who actually came from the NJPW dojo. They thought the main heel would be booed, they miscalculated. This also happened with Shota earlier this year. They keep fucking up, this shouldn't be a surprise.
>>
>>18639582
It somehow worked in the vs Finlay match but they stupidly thought that the same thing would happen again in the Finals lmao.
>>
>>18639679
You thought he was gonna be a main event after that shitty Okada match in 2020?

Tanahashi is for sure responsible for EVIL getting his roses. EVIL is his boy.

If it was Yuya beating EVIL, it would have been kino.

I think most of japs are going to agree with him just looking at the first comments on this

Yeah but if your gf is treating you like shit the cashier at Starbucks looks like a better option just by smiling at you
>>
>>18652691
I don't disagree on that lol but I think like Hiromu said himself "he's on a rebellious phase" so him openly saying that NJPW doesn't have a higher up who can genuinely praise their athletes, kayfabe or not, is more a way to shake fans and other players than a subliminal way to say that he's leaving NJPW
but i could be wrong tho kek but it feels a bit like shingo openly calling out gabe kidd
>>
>>18652704
Maybe but my conspiracy theory is that Naito and Bushi leaving shook him, they haven't committed to pushing him in HW matches other than a tag run and a never challenge when he will be nooj's biggest draw after Tana retires. Tiny sees that and is preying on him
>>
Tanahashi is backstage saying empty shit to guys like Shota & Uemura so what exactly does that mean?

I can't imagine anybody more corporate than Hiromu, basically Japanese Phil
