Plap fed
So EVIL faced Tsuji and Takeshita because they're Tony's favorite wrestlers in Nooj? Gedo really is a spiteful little fuck.
>>18615755Pretty funny desu
Tony won't seriously try to pursue Tsuji unless he hears about WWE wanting him.
Attendance feeling kinda GRIM? Just put a little Ice on it.
>>18615763Yea he clearly doesn't watch current NJPW and probably only knows Tsuji from Twitter clips of his Fosbury Flop
Attendance feeling kinda GRIM? Just put a little Wolf on it.
There just was no way to book talents because of the G1. Btw Yuya is working a RevPoo show on Forbidden Door weekend.
Tony or Rocky putting out a hitpiece on EVIL hours before the G1 was some bullshit too
when Naito starts his new fed on Wrestle Universe EVIL and Hiromu will defect
>>18616568What about Sanada?
shota umino fucking sucks
shota umino is my friend
>>18616568Hiromu maybe. EVIL has a pretty cozy position in NJPW and Tanahashi himself loves him so I don't see EVIL leaving.
Tony Khan wanted to push Tsuji but Gedo told him no. Maybe Tony really should buy Nooj and book it.
save us Goto
>>18617047>He had been told by a few people that had the best interest of Swerve and AEW in mind that they thought a more established challenger would be better suited for the event.Ah yes Gedo, a known wingman for Swerve
>all the people seething over Tranny Door on xitterkek why? who gives a fuck?
Luckily Gedo doesn’t want to share tsuji toy
>>18617482easier to blame the annoying money mark and his tranny regiment than the actual problem (gedo)
Does Gedo know he's being used as a scapegoat for whoever in Bushiroad is actually booking NJPW?
>>18617528>whoever in Bushiroad
>>18617528>muh gedo dindu nuffinlmao cocksucker
>>18617550Is this what I said? "Gedo" as in the booking committee fucking sucks but it's funny that people think it's just one guy doing everything
Tony should poach Umino, Callum, Baloney.
>>18617978>Callum No, I like AZM in Stardom
>>18618237kek not so fast. say goodbye to callum since he will be in aew along with azmhttps://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/1mlu8ci/tony_khan_reveals_his_current_favorite_wrestlers/
>>18617978I like Malloney now.
>>18616568Naito is genuinely too lazy to do all that
NewJaChads, my Japan trip during WK season may be back on the menu. I'm trying to cry with the ace, and let him know that I love him
>>18619078Got 6000 usd for the ticket?
Kidani:>I’d like to talk about our sports unit. First, regarding New Japan Pro-Wrestling, a generational shift is currently underway. We believe there is a strong possibility that new stars will emerge.>Also, on January 4 next year, Aaron Wolf, a major rookie, will make his debut at the Tokyo Dome event. Attendance numbers have been flat recently, but we expect further growth following the January 4 event.>Next, regarding Stardom, at the Yokohama Arena event in April, we recorded the largest attendance in Stardom’s history with 7,500 spectators. With the generational shift progressing and new stars emerging, we anticipate further increases in attendance going forward. We also expect significant growth in revenue.>That concludes the overview of each business.
>>18619110It's like 2K Canadian (I'm a leaf). It's not super crazy
>>18619110Oh you meant for WK. I'm not that much of mark. You can catch me applauding respectively in the arena seats
>>18619135>We believe there is a strong possibility that new stars will emerge.All this wording says to me is 5 more years of "they'll be ready soon"
>>18619135Oh we are so fucked
Where do suicidal thoughts came from?
>>18619135At this rate NJPW will be Stardom's little brother promotion
hahahalook guys its nujapoooololhey nujapooya gettin plap by aewlmaonujapooooo
Yota Tsuji is indeed pretty good, Nujamals. Big Tone likes him.
>>18620436As 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.
How do you took so long to notice?
>>18620436nice try but effingkenta already told me this is clickbait
>he forgot to turn his name off he uses in his joshipedo generalskek
I firmly believe if ZSJ left and Gabe stayed, Gabe would get Rikidozan levels of over and save wrestling in Japan.
>>18620483Types like a jeet too lol
>>18620498He wouldn't even get Kenny levels of over
>>18620498Gabe 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
>>18620498I firmly believe you're retarded
>Gimmick is that he's shin nihon>Trannies out faster than OspreayIf 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
>>18621401Forgot 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)
>>18621375Nobody is. He's too pussy to retaliate against Shingo fully for calling him out about not working Ariake.
>>18619135Bruh. Aaron wolf will not save NJPW. This will be another case of Shota umino like monster push
>>18621432They should give him a manager and have him stand there like Lesnar
>>18621355Ya bubblin
>>18621634afraid so. insider-kun mindraped him.
>>18621634>>18621650I don't even understand what is he so mad about? He is shitting and pissing himself because everything the "Insider" predicted turned out to be true?
>>18621763he played the fake insider gimmick in these threads for years but there is a legit insider on 4chan so he hates him. he wishes he could be him. he wants to be the booker of new japan so bad that it keeps him up at night.
>>18621788>he wishes he could be him. he wants to be the booker of new japan so bad that it keeps him up at night.
>>18621432>Shota umino like monster pushHe's not going to win any feuds or titles? Grim.
Insider here, I'm inside her.
>>18622014Por interno
SAVE US WOLF
>>18622051From what exactly
What if they don't have one of the young guys beat Takeshita?
I don't hear them laughing but I know
>>18622055GRIMness
>>18622152Then they'll have Goto beat him which is stupid so it's probably happening
Slowpoke and stuff but Takeshita really be 2 of the 3 Frozen Musketeers and all 3 heavyweight War Dogs lol
>>18622350beat* whatever nigger
>>18622214The secret is remembering is wasn't there five minutes ago
>>18622369Wut
>>18622350He also beat the IWGP champion and the top heel. 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.
>>18622759Yeah, ONE (1) guy will pin him and that'll mean the world to everybody in the company and usher a boom. Can't wait!
Tony Khan is going to make Tanahashi do a High Fly Flow off the top of the cage, isn't he
>>18622630You heard me
>>18622812I 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.
from 5ch>Mai (麻衣, no idea who she is) and Umino Shota, suspected of having an affair, are currently on TikTok LIVE.Mirmo is Umino Shota.>Is there really a need to create a secondary account? He went to the pool yesterday too, so I think it's a bit strange to go to the pool with a married woman so often.>https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSAhmHVPb/
>>18623233Are you a woman? Only women care about this nonsense.
>>18623047I think that would actually kill him at this point.
>>18623116>I hope your just playing devil's advocate.Sarcasm, nigga
>>18623393Sorry, there are so many retards and schizos on /pw/ lately it's getting difficult to infer intent.
>>18623300The ones talking about AZM and Callum Newman are women as well?
The father mindThey all had to hate me
>>18623416I should hope so. Callum is a scrub loser and I have no idea who AZM is because I'm not a joshipedo.So, again, are you a woman or a pedo?
>>18623439You are asking that on 4chan?
>>18623477I 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 women7 threads about Nash getting raped10 threads on why Khan sucks2 rage bait threads about hating Hogan 4 threads about Meltzer3 meta threads talking about why /pw/ sucks2 off topic political threadsRecently, 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.
>>18623517what about GRIMposting
Yota Tsuji fucking sucks.
>>18623562What about it? It's spammed but it's the truth. Any sane NJPW fan would agree.
>>18623233Shota being a pussy hound that'll fuck cute joshis and still take your girl for the side would be a good character. Calling Shingo and Tsuji incels would be kino
we will one day dance again
Shota Umino fucking fucks
Shota Uminos Suck 'n' Fuck
>>18624003This killed him completely imo. How do you take a guy seriously ever again after he does this in public?
>>18624823Will Ospreay feuded with Hiromu over penises and cats.
>>18623355He's there with like 10 other people 4 of them could catch him and it would be almost less dangerous than a regular high fly flow
>>18625602anon, its AEW
>>18626316Interesting how the September show not booked by Gaydo is the most interesting one with only one match on the card...
JEONG MOSQUE LI
>>18625569Jrs. Next question.
>>18626316did they mean "clash" ?
>>18626316I wonder if Zack feels slighted as Old Man Tekkers here. He's like 7 years younger than the second youngest guy Taichi.

>>18627247Now that the dust has settled why the fuck did Shota main event the dome?
>>18627320Kanemaru's son is not some harlot
Offtopic but Cobb and Loa teaming in WWE and Cobb being the one chanted at with "you can't wrestle" is amazing
>>18627768It shows you how braindead the average WWE drone is
>>18627598Nepotism
>>18627320He's in a faction with SHO and Togo yet can't get cut after gaining proper mass?
>>18626316I was begging for them to do something like this for the last Korakuen before G1 but doing out of the box cool things only comes around once every 3 fucking years with these people.
Can it be done, bros?
>>18630083Can what be done?
>>18630083That million yen ticket better come with a blow job from Miki, Pieter, or Shinichi girl
>>18630083He should be on his hands and knees in Stamford begging to have Shinsuke for his retirement match. Outside of Naito there is no one in Japan that'd help draw a good house and literally no one in AEW would be of any help
>>18630480Shinsuke is the only option but it's not going to happen We've seen Naito vs Tana too many times
who is the Shinichi girl and why is she booking a show?
>is the only Watanabe to be in a tournament final this month and not win
seems like the booker for stardom was very good unlike gedo who let an outsider won
A bit long but good analysis on G1 final >https://note.com/morugana/n/nd0aba9e05881
>>18631231I can't read it.
>>18631244if you translate the page in english is pretty understandable, very basic Anyway, I wasn't there back in 2020 but the post mention KENTAの乱 someone can tl;dr what happened?
>>18631137We want Okada.
>>18627768>>18627785Wrestling is when you do twenty minute promos.
>>186272473 failed Aces at once. Impressive.
>>18627768WWE is so bad right now. It's unbelievable to me they can get people to take out loans for tickets. It feels like WCW when it was still making tons of money, while terrible, but a thousand times more.
>>18631263referring to his run-in on naito (乱入 is the word for interference/run-in)
This used to be us, man.. >>18631280 >>18631309
>>18630999he would have won if gedo wasn't a castrated cuck
>>18630999huh what you mean?
>>18631312We already have him. He's the representative director.
>>18631376thanks
Insider here, Gedo just sent a dead horse to Red Shoes doorstep as a warning. He's making him an offer he can't refuse.
>>18630480maybe he should just do the right thing and put somebody over clean.
>>18632768has a wrestler ever actually put a young guy over on the way out? besides terry funk who i assume has done it in one of his many retirements
>>18632768What 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.
>>18632817Jumbo made Misawa but it wasn't his last match, so... the closest would Kensuke putting over Nakajima.
>>18630681shinnichi girl is tsumugi, shinnichi champion is some variety show that nooj has and she hosts it. if you have world you can watch it thereshe’s booked a match or two for other shows in the past, so that’s probably why
>>18631480The difference is Stardom is idolshit womeme wrestling featuring a bunch of unathletic pussies who cringe with fear every time they hit the big scary mean ropes and NJPW was actually goodI will never watch joshi-t, and watching retards praise it just makes me want to stop watching wrestling altogether.
>>18633657>Big leagues everybody and goes back to MéxicoNaito 2.0
>>18633196Except the point he's making is not about them not being idolshit or being better than guys at wrestling and more like not hating their fans like 2025 NJPW seemingly does. No one cares about what you want or don't want to watch.
>>18634476But it is idolshit and they are shit at wrestling and if you like it, you're just some weird pedophile that wants to goon to 15 year old Japs.You have more in common with 70 year old Japanese salaryman pedos than normal wrestling fans.Begone, bug jerker.
>>18634499You're actually retarded and can't read. Congrats.
>>18634526And you're defending joshit fans, such luminaries as Edgelard F(at) and the pedo schizos that spam the board with waifu wars all day
It's too bad that Desperado was needed for Japanese commentary for Forbidden Door, I'm sure he would have had a great match if he wrestled, oh well...
>>18634536You 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.
>>18635125TL;DRshut up joshipedo, this is a wrestling thread not one of your gay circlejerk ERP threads
>>18634611its so weird. even a death match would have been fine. fuck it fly over jun and throw whoever would want to do it into a tag team death match against the two
>>18635170A deathmatch in England?!?! You got a loicense fer that innit?
>>18635180>Today's event was canceled due to the use of an unlicensed fork.
>>18635180just say its a shoot fight over a chelsea vs man game then its above board
>>18635192Idea for a comedy match: London-approved death match where a traditional "bobby" follows the wrestlers around and confiscates weapons before they can be used.
>>18635316Match ends when one wrestler tricks the other into holding an English flag long enough to get arrested for hate crimes.
>>18635316>fight into backstage>bobby sees all the tvs in gorilla>goes absolutely apeshit on everyone
I look forward to the day Uemura wins the G1. Him doing the heato stormu pose with the trophy in hand will be kino
Takeshita has now beaten>the world champ>every heavyweight war dog including the leader, injuring the unit's #2 guy and the guy that wanted to avenge said injured #2>the top heel>the #2 in the top heel's unit>1/2 of the tag championsand he didn't even need to be white to do it!

beep beep
>>18636765GRIM
>>18636765>90% AEW, 10% NJPWNJPW is going to get a lot of positive exposure from this...NOT
>>18636765This board is going to explode when Tana breaks his legs and has to miss his own retirement show, also Garcia is clearly going to challenge Zack
Is Hiromu going to be Tinycon's new toy?
>>18637087Can you have more negative aura than Daniel Garcia?
>>18637113hiromu goes where naito goes
>>18637117>>18636752
So since some of you faggots listen to gay ass wrestling podcasts, has anyone given a fucking explanation as to why the g1 final was evil vs takeshita?
>>18637179Because NJPW decided that.
Test
>>18637189Ok but why did they decide on such a retarded and shit match?
>>18637087Jap fans may send death threats to Tony straight up. Even the ones on twitter have run out of patience
>>18637087Like I said last thread, he will retire Jan 4th 2027 instead
War dogs without finlay, yuya and despy added to the cardhttps://x.com/WrestleTalk_TV/status/1959443762775544169
>>18637509Yeah, 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.
>>18637202They retardedly thought that the nooj fans would cheer for Takeshita to beat Evil...not realizing the fanbase is built on loyalty above all else.
>>18632838the 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>>18636765who gives a fuck about this shit?
>>18638857Why do they want fans to cheer takeshita? Isn't he a heel?
>>18639582>Why do they want fans to cheer takeshita?Now THAT is the million dollar question...I have no fucking clue why they did that
what went wrong? thought he was gonna be a main eventer 2-3 years ago
>>18638857I'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
>>18639709and tanahashi is right; fuck you bitch
>>18639709If 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.
>>18639582It somehow worked in the vs Finlay match but they stupidly thought that the same thing would happen again in the Finals lmao.
>>18639679You thought he was gonna be a main event after that shitty Okada match in 2020?
>>18639709Tanahashi is for sure responsible for EVIL getting his roses. EVIL is his boy.If it was Yuya beating EVIL, it would have been kino.
Shota Umino being a failure is the funniest thing NJPW has ever doneI love seeing that geek get BTFO
>>18639861sup gabe?
>>18639769Evil won't fuck you tranny >>18639785>>18639786Finlay vs takeshita should've been the final >>18639836Yeah so kino their match that didn't even main event a night of the g1 is completely forgotten
>>18639989He's Iyo's husband, why would he fuck me?
>>18639861Everybody is a failure right now

Gabe Kidd is dead
Ibushi looked on good terms with Tanahashi. I'm fucking scared.
>>18647585I hope he stays dead
>>18647610To be fair he looked good in the ring too. Decent, anyway. He's bounced back.
>>18647582>let AEW ass penetrate his promotion for a pity win in BonglandGO ASS
>>18647585>GEDO ME LEGS HURT INNIT I WON'T DO THE G1 SORRY BRUV>TONY YOU WANT ME TO TAKE A STUPID TABLE BUMP FROM THE TOP OF THE CAGE? RIGHT ON IT SIRHe's so blatant kek

>>18647799[Sad News]
>>18647781im curious to see how nips gonna react to this lol
Why is Gabe Kidd stimming?
>>18647799They didn't let him die a warrior's death. Cowards.
>>18647988he's retiring, he doesn't want to die as warrior kek
>>18648017Then why did he try to do a high fly flow from the top of a ladder? Answer me that.
>>18647781Traitor
ok but why does njpw gabe kidd loves tanahashi and aew gave kidd fucking hates him?
enjoy the ride tomodachi
>>18648230It's just business, bruv
grim
Knockout Niggas should've got involved in the tag match and laid everybody out
>>18649715There was a run-in during the tag match of guys in NJPW suits, I thought for sure it was themnope, it was Ricoshit and his goons
yuto ice too cool
>>18642302Tbf New Japan never actually holds big shows in Sendai (all they get is filler shows on tours and G1s) and it's literally in SENDAI GIRLS's name. They also inflate their attendance but when you see the crowd they definitely logged New Japan.
i wonder what he's doing right now
>>18650226He just snorted a rail off a hooker's ass and then sneezed because you mentioned him
>>18648106he did it for the love of the game, next question
>9/7 Blue Justice XVI @ Togane Arena (4:00pm) nothing now for two weeks
>>18651082It's just gonna be 2 old men having an okay nostalgia match you can't relaly be hyped for with a spot show undercard. Not really worth watching in its own right.
>>18649715They disappeared in Kamurocho after their debut
>>18647977Oi, you got a loicence for that fork bruv?

>>18652543CRACKS
>>18652543What's there to remember? They're in the new Dark Ages right now.
>>18652543>Hiromu, who failed to capture the belt, revealed that he didn't remember much about the match, but said, "Tony Khan came over to applaud and say, 'That was an amazing match. The best match ever.' He just said that. I had fun, and it seems like the top wrestler here enjoyed it too. Hiromu, I'm going through a rebellious phase right now. You know what I just said? What New Japan Pro-Wrestling is lacking is what I just said." He continued, "Do you understand how much it would be comforted if the number one wrestler watched every match like that and told each and every wrestler, 'That was an amazing match?' Hey, New Japan Pro-Wrestling today is lacking. Remember the tough times from over 10 years ago. Let's all remember the teamwork we had back then. By the way, I'm telling you this." He continued, expressing his opinion on the state of New Japan.
>>18652543I think most of japs are going to agree with him just looking at the first comments on this>Tanahashi often praises other wrestlers and talks about his feelings for them as a pose to the fans, but I get the impression that he's pretty lazy when it comes to actually communicating with those wrestlers.>Wasn't that the case when Naito left the company?>In the announcement to the fans, he said "I did everything I could," but Naito himself said that Tanahashi hadn't tried to persuade him to stay.
>>18652543>>18652575I fucking told you, TinyCon wants the Hiromu toy>>18637113
>>18652591>A puppet president who is only interested in his own retirement, a suit-wearing group that is criticized by wrestlers, an increasing number of wrestlers leaving, a continuing decline in audience numbers compared to the previous year, and an unobjective fan who continues to defend them. t's a scene I've seen somewhere before.
>>18652619No wonder Tony easily poaches from NJPW if a compliment is enough to reconsider their loyalty
>>18652619I mean, at the moment he is going around othe rpromotions like NOAH so I don't think he dislike the idea play the mercenary but what he says has nothing to do with AEW but what is happening behind doors of NJPW
>>18615738
>>18652652Yeah but if your gf is treating you like shit the cashier at Starbucks looks like a better option just by smiling at you
>>18652691I 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 NJPWbut i could be wrong tho kek but it feels a bit like shingo openly calling out gabe kidd
>>18652704Maybe 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
Surprised that njpw tweeted a ibushi imagehttps://x.com/njpw1972/status/1959822353229037850
ZSJ vs Narita at Destruction in Kobehttps://x.com/njpw1972/status/1959905463920959639
https://www.njpw.co.jp/596077/>The main event of the annual "Autumn Ryogoku" event, "KING OF PRO-WRESTLING 2025," has been confirmed as the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship match between Zack Sabre Jr. and Ren Narita, to be held at the Kobe World Memorial Hall on Sunday, September 28th. The winner of this match will be challenged by "G1 CLIMAX 35" champion KONOSUKE TAKESHITA.
I'm retarded so I need someone to explain why i have to see Narita against ZSJ (and eventually Takeshita)
>>18653232He beat Zack on G1 opening night
>>18653283Watched every day of this year g1 and i completely forgot about it, thanks
>>18653216>>18653223GRIM
>>18652543>>18652591Hiromu is going to the toybox fed soon and Trannyhashi is going to get blamed again for his cuckish presidency
>>18653471Is more likely that Hiromu is gonna move to NOAH than what you said
>>18653210WE LOVE YOU GOATS
>>18653223Can't wait for Shota to challenge Takeshita and for him to get booed again, it will show that they really aren't learning
>>18653210jr was sounding even more sickly than usual last night, genuinely worried about him lads
>>18653815Flight from Oklahoma to London must have taken a lot out of him. Probably the longest trip in a while.
>>18653815towards the end he sounded better tho
AEW antis are very quiet today, for some reason.
>>18653815JR and Schiavone both need to be sent off to a farm upstate.
>Hiromu and Naito going to NOAHIt's over for you Nu Jamals
next >>18654430
