>>19469886everything after 1999
>>19469886kings road matches often have me questioning why i chose to be a lazy coward for most of my life

>>19470277Walk the King's Road anon, and that is Inoki's antithesis. Strong Style ended up becoming the Jannetty as most nujamals wrestle like kobashi and misawa (saw).
>>19470203why?
>>19469886Feelin like what? Watching an orange sky? Elaborate you fucking nerd you think I got time to watch Ricky and Morty?
>>19469886
>>19469886Inoki vs Muta '94
>>19470397This would be cooler if there was a story behind it but gooks don't understand stories just heatless matches
>>19470412There is a story. Choshu and Tenryu were having a tag match with Muto and Chono. Right after the match started, Tenryu threw Muto out of the ring, grabbed a mic, and shouted>COME ON OUT, MUTAMuto then left the ring and went backstage. Chono then was forced to have a handicap match with Choshu and Tenryu. After some time, Muta finally appeared, wearing the Muta outfit. The crowd popped like schizos here. He then dominated the match, but Choshu finished off Chono with his Riki Lariat, so Muta lost it and started beating everyone up with an object and misting their faces. Inoki came out after witnessing the chaos happening, stared at Muta. Muta knelt on one knee and kept closing on Inoki. When he was very close to him, he misted him all of a sudden. A few days later, this match was announced, and Inoki said this would be the first event in the road to his retirement, which lasted 4 years.
>>19470519When I say stories I meant WWF style. This is too basic
>>19470412>but gooks don't understand stories just heatless matchesThat's only true in the dimeless AJPW, the GayEW of its time. NJPW always had stories, promos and angles, even back in the 70s.
>>19470354>4:3 ratio>Rick and Mortyretard
>>19470581Mid 90s to early 2000s NJPW had backstage drama and VTRs similar to WCW and WWF.
>>19470346they are the apex of determination, discipline, craftsmanship, and having a genuinely strong connection to your work, your coworkers, and people at large (in this case, an audience). these guys sacrificed their lives to represent a visceral form of the will to live, and they really were some of the very best wrestlers ever, not just because they were taking crazy bumps on a regular basis, but how artful and graceful they were with all the little details that unfold throughout their matches across the years, they always perfectly communicated whatever was at stake to both the immediate crowd and the people at home by leaping through the language and culture barriers. that's why empty shitposts like this >>19470412 are fairly retarded. and much like the best of theater, this stuff leaves me with a lingering bittersweet feeling, because while i'm marking out with my heart over what they're doing, i haven't really absorbed it to the point where it translated into my life. i can't say i've ever been completely devoted to something grand like that, nor have i employed whatever little skills i've been gifted with to their proper usage. i'd like to be that kind of figure to my loved ones in their moments of weakness, the ''keep pushing on'' kind of guy, but truth be told i'm often the first one to fold under pressure. i've abandoned a few of my dreams due to juvenile cowardice, instead of just trying it out. i will admit that on the best of days, a kobashi match can kick my ass enough to get me to be there and do something good for a friend or family member impromptu, and make my work out harder. strangely enough, this is also how i feel about my love for werner herzog moviesthanks for reading my gayass blogpost.

>>19470615it's not late to delete this embarrassing post
>>19470594>That's only true in the dimeless AJPW, the GayEW of its time.Basically this

>>19470615I know that feeling all too well. Promo's good
>>19470615yeah this post is gayyou can live vicariously through their experience and still do your own thing and be happykind of sounds like you haven't done anything but be an npc sheep while also watching wrestling your entire adult life and maybe that has more to do with your depressing line of thinking than not being a wrestler
>>19470361That's a strange choice. What about it could get you feeling like op's pic rel?
