Take me back
>>19515107If you wanna go back, go further back when the Bullet Club actually meant anything.
>>19515107This era was so entertaining. Also peak BTE
>>19515225Some of us njpw fans heard of the product after AJ debuted in WWE and we actually lived that period instead of playing pretend after reading wikipedia articles
the band American Nightmare>>>>
>>19515236Some of us NJPW fans were already done with the Bullet Club by then.
NJPW/ROH 2013-2019 was on another level. the last time I truly marked out over wrestling.
>>19515243Are you shoot in your late thirties anon?
>>19515270Yes
>>19515229>>19515250We had 2016 SDLive, prime BTE, broken hardyz, prime Kenny Omega, and ex-fed talent working in the indies that weren't shitters and vanilla midgets in comparison to the state of the indies now because they're either hired by the fed or aew. The women's revolution, Paige sex tape, whatculture blampied, Jarrett's Impact takeover, Elite working PWG and Chikara, Lucha Underground, Jeri-KO kino. It was a great time to be a wrestling fan during this period and I am glad to say this was my teenage years and those years are damn well spent and i'm shoot crying after last night's dynamite
>>19515287Holy legend, what were the vibes during 2012-2016 NJPW?
>>19515107
>>19515306brought a tear to my eye. 2012-2019 felt like the real last "boom" period for wrestling. I'd see bullet club and nwo t-shirts at metal and alternative clubs and concerts. people throwing up the 2 sweet.good times.
>9 years ago
>>19515326When bullet club shirts was the epitome of anti-monopoly sentiment as Cody would say. Bullet club and Elite shirts were frequently spotted during wwe broadcasts, Hot topic making the bullet club brand go mainstream. Wrestling fans during this period weren't obnoxious console warriors because we all collectively shat on WWE for shoving roman down our throats (remember the IWC meltdown over the Payback-Extreme Rules AJ-Roman feud) then gave Vince his flowers when he went over Cena clean and got a title run. Holy shit bros the bullet club did really change wrestling and I wonder when will the next wrestling boom is.
>>19515250I feel like most wrestling fans now are residue from this period and a couple friendless twitter trannies finding a community to jerk themselves into
>>19515107The grim state of new professional wrestling fans
>>19515314It was pretty cool, I enjoyed the shows a whole lot more than anything at the time.Nakamura, Tanahashi and Suzuki delivered kino, Koslov and Romero had a fun jr. tag team that opened the shows, jr. heavyweights had Devitt, the time stopper dude whose name escapes me and Low Ki, tag teams had Anderson and Sex Ferguson agains TenCozy and these are just the things off the top of my head.It was fun and weird to see the heavy push of Okada and having him fail, but then get to the top, but still be second fiddle to Tanahashi and Nakamura. Okada really did become the best in the world and after he lost his title to Kenny, I kinda lost all interest.Bullet Club was cool, almost a shame Devitt left so early, since it would have been cool to see how high he could have gotten, though AJ mogged him pretty bad.I didn't like how many americans started to fill the cards. I also like the cannon that The Bucks were some big stars, when all they did was open the cards and second Kenny.
>>19515107;-;
>>19515441how can he get any gayer?
>>19515306And prime Bex and Alexa
>>19515767Styles v Suzuki was dimes anon, Styles v Ibushi is up there too. This is pretty poser like take but I personally watched nooj because of the westerners and I had no interest in watching senshus thoughbeit
>>19515809steampunk becky.
>>19515803.
>>19515107I miss peak elite
>>19515811There were good matches every now and then, but overall my interest fell after Okadas great run ended.Styles is always great.
>>19515917Will you watch the Tanahashi retirement anon?
>>19515938I think I will, even though I don't know shit about current product.
>>19515947Okada will always be over with me because he married picrel
>>19515834No, you don't. Nobody misses these clowns.
>>19515107Remember when WOLFIE and the Anti Smarks were coping hard about the NJPW Boom Period from 2012 to 2020 on google plus?
>>19515917based kazuCHAD
>>19515956yes I do anon, and it's not a console war thing. Kenny Omega and Austin Creed geek feud was one of the gems during this period.
>>19515966qrd? I wasn't on asp or sp during this time I was shoot on youtube comments and facebook groups with indians. Rather hang out with indians than SC redditfaggots even at a young age
>>19515236Poser
>>19516022i'm not a njpw fan, more of a elite fan thoughbeit. I love kenny so much it's unreal, cody and the bucks too.
>>19515989
>>19516001QRD.On GOOGLE PLUS.When NJPW had that match with Kenny vs Okada One.Wolf Cuck was coping HARD and calling BC ripoff of NWO and Kilq despite Nash and Razor giving them their blessings.Wolf Cuck and Anti Smarks coped about Japanese Pro Wrestling still being a thing and coped about NJPW dominating in Japan from 2012 to 2020 while WWE was dogshit and irrelevant in Japan and was only relevant in MUTTMERICA.Does WWE matter anywhere around the world?Nope.They’re only relevant in USA due to Vince JR killing the territories in USA.
>>19515306>i'm shoot crying after last night's dynamiteWhat happened? I didn't catch it
>>19515989>Balloonkadamakes me kek every time
>>19515314I’m 35 and 2012-2016 NJPW was the only thing stopping me from completing giving up on wrestling and never looking back .
>>19516043Lol, I haven't thought of this in so long.
>>19516094Remember when they tried to headcannon that Balloonkada was a midlife crisis when really he was just being a little silly then went right back to winning all the time
>>19516173>>19516131I remember people trying to defend this but it's when I lost interest.Sadly he was just as big of a goof as Kenny and the rest.
>>19516087Elite reunion against don callis family. It was a classic kenny spotmonkey match, the bucks attempted a 5 star meltzer driver, kenny and okada spot, one winged angle + indytaker spot. Shit dude it took me back to the good ole days of being the elite, and I realized that the end of kenny omega is near and I, a manchild can't cope with that.
>>19516281based
>>19516053kek people used google+ back in the day? wolfie may have millions of views in his channel but he's forever henniGOD's rape victim
>>19515107Wrestling's grand finale. AEW is a bad spinoff in Kenny's career.
>>19516043that's Cocaine Okada>>19516281I shoot got emotional too, bro
>>19515387>Wrestling fans during this period weren't obnoxious console warriors because we all collectively shat on WWE for shoving roman down our throats>welmfao
