How did things end up like that for the IWGP?
>>20590786In Inoki's NJPW, real men used to hold the IWGPIn Trannyhashi's NJPW, trannies hold the IWGP
>>20590786Smarks will tell you that whoever that literal who twink is better than Brock
>>20590786Lesnar's run almost killed the company. LMAO. You have no idea what you are talking about. Go back to watching the best of Jey Uso matches on youtube or something.
>>20590786Were they scouting around Shibuya for the first white tourist to cross the Shibuya Scramble Crossing and gave him the IWGP?
>>20590786No taichigun no taichi champion
>>20590786Inoki's ashes are rolling in its urn
>>20590813Nah it was Inokis booking becoming shit by the 2000s that nearly killed it
went from athletes holding the strap to cart pushers holding it
>>20590786The twink I guarantee we'll see in AEW in the next three years
>>20590813If Newman was made a champ in the 2000s, NJPW would have been absolutely dead. The modern NJPW audience being cultists who lap up any turd Gedo serves them doesn't mean the product is good.

>>20590791fpbp
>>20590855This is also retarded shit but it doesn't disprove his point
>>20590786>Inoki died >Tanahashit imparted faggy ass WWE style into NJPW because he idolized Shawn Michaels >Tanahashit also posed for a gay magazine>NJPW has just been pretty ladyboys dancing doing choreograhpy for the last 15 years >anti draw as a wrestler >anti draw as an executive
>>20590819>taichiThat AJPW shitter doesn't belong in NJPW
>>20590867>Tanahashit imparted faggy ass WWE style into NJPWthats false
>>20590874sybau nu jamal
>>20590855I don't watch WWE. WWE being shit doesn't make NJPW good.
>>20590867>>Tanahashit also posed for a gay magazineis this true?
>>20590797He literally is. Callum has has a 25 minute banger with Tsuji to win the title and a 35 minute banger with Shingo in his first defense. Lesnar could never
>>20590911>Bangers Lol, lmao evenYou're positively trolling, nobody actually calls them bangers unironically.
>>20590907fraid so
>>20590911We don't sign our posts here
>>20590938>nobody actually calls them bangers unironically.they call it cinema lmfaooo
>>20590941yum
If we're being honest, New Japan has been shit since Inoki left.
>>20590786Karma for rejecting Inoki's vision
>>20590941Fucking slut
>>20590786Did the belt itself get smaller or is it the angle of the shot of Newman with the belt that makes it look smaller?
>>20590786I have no idea who the guy who isn't Brock is and I strongly suspect he's a faggot
>>20590911Not even New Japan fans pretend that Shingo match was good
>>20590999I think he's fucking one of the Stardom girls
>>20590999IWC cultists suck him off like he's the second coming of whatever your favorite wrestler is, aka what they do to every gaijin with a push in Nooj.
>>20590911Prime Lesnar would
>>20591126>whatever your favorite wrestler isI somehow doubt he's as charismatic as Randy Savage, I recall a lot of the foreign wrestlers in Japan are lacking in charisma and promo ability.
I'm just mad because if they wanna make some vanilla midget the champ it should have been Yung Bussin
>>20590840The obese smelly Smarks can't argue with this point
>>20590786>Such an absolute shitter anti-draw, Nu Jamal has to be sold for pennies on the dollarFuck Callum, what a white faggot KWAB
>>20590840TrvthNvke
>>20590941He's really Trannyhashit
>>20590786I find it insane how Brock went to NJPW at the height of his career in WWE.
>>20591710The allure of Inoki-ism
>>20590786Am I the only one here who likes Callum?
>>20592299You're the only one here who knows who he is
>>20590941I don't think it was a fujo magazine...
>>20590941this was a girly magazine.
>>20592299Thank god someone here does.Please post a promo of his and your favorite 3 matches.I’m gonna give this guy a chance because this is probably the most dimeless the belt has looked in its history and that’s the v4.
>>20590911
>>20591710WWE sued him so he couldn't do anything in the states so he had to go to Japan to work. I think it was there that he became aware of MMA so shifted to that after NJPW fucked with his pay. He left the belt in his garage.
>>20590786Brock had a shitty run and held the belt hostage
>>20590786That guy is better than Brock tho.
>>20590824Inoki wasn't the booker, newb
>>20590786I don't watch nu jamal, is the twink what I think he is, aka a flippyshitter?
>>20592613more like flabbyshitter
>>20592657He's so dimeless-looking, why did they make him their champ?
>>20590786White people killed new Japan.Basically a one two knockout punch between Harold and Tanahashi’s SWC fetish.It couldn’t possibly survive.
>>20592700This is the same company that put the equally dimeless Billy Assplay on the indie map. They have an absolutely dimes Russian on their roster who you could easily book as the second coming of Nikita Koloff but they don't push him for some reason.
>>20592721Harold tried to save NJPW. He forced Young bucks and Kenny out. He's NJPW last chance to restore their honour
>>20590786We love Newman here, don't we folx?
>>20590786Disgraceful
>>20592493lel
>>20590786Stop bullying him. Lookism is not the answer. Be better.
>>20593201Nah Callum needs to hit the gym. He doesn't have to get Batista swole, more like Moxley toned
>>20590786I've seen the new toy Tony is going to snatch up as soon as their contract is up with Nu Jamal
>>20590786aura
>>20590786Why is it the supposed best workers according to Reddit are totally dimeless no-draws?
Callum won
>>20593209moxley is in amazing shape
>>20593549So is Hangman Page, there are gyms in Tokyo so Callum has no excuse
>>20593517Reddit only likes non-intimidating wrestlers because they’re actually terrified of real, imposing ones.
>>20592657Can't he take steroids?
>>20593209>We will never get someone as big as Batista ever again Grim
>>20592721The problem is the bookers and the kinds of white people (read: trannies) they are pushing. Inoki and Choshu pushed real men>Hogan>Vader>Hashimikov>Norton>Lesnar
>>20593660He won't be as aerodynamic if he got muscular, he'd have to change his style and his current style is the modern definition of workrate
>>20592831>Harold tried to save NJPW. He forced Young bucks and Kenny out.What's with this revisionism? Kenny and co. asked for more money and Harold said no so they left. He'd have kept them if he could have paid them
>>20593722Big guys like Vader and Bam Bam Bigelow were aerodynamic too and both were around 400 pounds
I just want to see big guys in wrestling again. I don't care if they are mountains of muscles like Hogan or Sid or if they are mastodons like Vader or Earthquake.
>>20593753
>>20593725Exactly. Harold knew they were the problem and low-balled them, he saw the future but the chinks running Bushiroad were imbeciles
>>20593764What's this guy's (girl?) story? I don't get the hype
>>20593770big ass fat ass dude from britwreshe's big, he's bad, he'll bodyslam your dadjohn cena is in love with him and constantly posts about him
>>20593764He's a step in the right direction, but wrestlers nowadays don't like being called heavyweight or even cruiserweight. We need as many fat wrestlers as we can get, fat guys are always dimes.
>>20593764Needs to get fatter350 pounds at least
>>20593764If he shaved his head bald he'd look like a deranged crackhead which is leaps and bounds better than looking like a deranged lesbian
>>205937976'5, he's definitely at least 350
>>20593809>6'5>350Not bad but he could be a bit fatter
>>20593764Can he cut a promo?
>>20590813>>20590855>WWE OUTTA NOWHERE!
>>20593753We will never see someone like Earthquake again unless some really big sumo guy decides to try his luck at wrestling.
>>20590786No surprise, the only gaijin these days who work in Japan are people who'd never get signed in America because they have nothing of worth to offer.
>>20590786NJPW has a shoot tough guy Olympic hero who's a household name and the only well-known wrestler throughout Japan today, yet they refuse to push him to the moon.
>>20593857Mike Bailey literally has a six figure contract with AEW, what does he offer?
>>20593861If only Inoki was alive today
>>20593857Even those would be getting snatched by Tony once NJPW push them (See: Gabe)
>>20592700They hate Japanese people.
>>20593914I understand signing Finlay's kid, fuck I understand trying to sign Drilla Maloney, but Connors and Kidd I don't understand the appeal of, even Nooj knew they weren't anything spectacular.
>>20593861He should lose the tits first
>>20593915More like there's no Japanese wrestlers good enough
>>20592498I don't think it was
Who would you book as the white champ then?
>>20593914Just like Callum will as soon as his NJPW deal is up.ZSJ is the only one who didn't sign with AEW
>>20593973Kenny Omega
>>20593973no one because they are all dimeless
Bring back Nakamura
>>20590786Right looks incredibly bored
>>20592505kek he disappeared
>>20593326he looks like hed be a twitch streamer
>>20594012>white
>>20590786There's better wrestlers in the YouTube indies than this faggot Callum Newman
>>20590941I did not realize how jacked Tanahashi is until this
>>20592831>>20593769Harold wanted to burn the TV Asahi bridge you dipshit
>>20595069Fag
>>20590786Bron Breakker isn't a hair over 5'9 and you're complaining about Callum Newman?
>>20595929Bron towers over AEW's world champion
>>20595929If Bron is 5'9 then Callum is 5'7
>>20595941Darby isn't champ anymore
>>20596006Bron is still taller than MJF
>>20593831Are you pretending you are not clearly a Piggalo?
>>20595941Bron is shoot 5'5. LMAO.
>>20596087Then MJF must be about 5'2
>>20596096Randy Orton is 5'3 so...
>>20596190Orton is shoot 6'3
>>20596204The only wrestler to ever be shoot 6 foot is Andre The Giant who was 6'6, everyone else has always been a shoot manlet
>>20590786Why did we let the entire industry get filled with skinny twinks again?
>>20592657Jesus Christ he's so out of shape
>>20593784>wrestlers nowadays don't like being called heavyweight or even cruiserweight.Why do you think they decided that just anyone can be X-Division Champion in TNA? It was literally designed for smaller guys but all the small guys bitched and moaned about it until they got their way
Callum newman is the best wrestler under 30 years old you stupid fucking retards. God even the wrestling fans that watch the only good promotion are ungrateful morons. Newman is also at least 6ft tall which makes him more credible than most wrestlers
>>20596515Hi Callum, you suck and swallow
>>20596212adopting this into my belief system
>>20596521No you goofy cuck, azm sucks and swallows Callum
>>20590786What a sweet moment, they let a make a wish kid parade around with the belt
>>20596544Still has no excuse for being a flabby flabster, like Christ dude, have some pride in where you work and look respectable.
>>20596544Cool cool, you're still a shitter Callum.
>>20596613A lot of wrestlers are flabby and aren't even 6ft tall so who gives a fuck? That roid gorilla Brock was a massive shitty failure in njpw you dumbass size queen
>>20596617And you're an ugly fuck with shit wrestling opinions nobody cares about. Kys
>>20596645Nobody said anything about being as jacked as Brock except you friend
>>20596655I only joke about you being a very buttblasted Callum but now I'm not so sure considering how mad you seem to be.
>>20590855>>20595929What does this thread have to do with WWE and its wrestlers?
>>20592657That's the cuck stance
>>20596645>A lot of wrestlers are flabby and aren't even 6ft tallCope
>>20596732I'm obviously not him or mad but you're clearly seething nobody cares about the shit wrestling you like so again just kys
>>20596775>No it's you who's seething I accept your concession
>>20590786Bob Sapp and Scott Norton won the IWGP LMAO. The head canon that its "the most prestigious title" because only a few foreigners have one it has always been a larp.
>>20593326Again, he looks as non-threatening as possible, like soft rock. And people will defend this
>>20596828That's not him you blind retard
>>20590941Anon...
>>20590941>>20596870Rub my back?
>>20593801>If he shaved his head baldHe'd look like King Kong Bundy
>>20590869My friend I offer this advice in complete sincerity. Delete this post immediately. Our history and tradition with that man is something that’s beyond your years. I’m asking you not to disrespect that over a clue you didn't get.
>>20596875And that's not a bad thing either, have his gimmick be he's some schizo who idolized King Kong Bundy and emulates him as a deranged tribute That'd be at least something interesting than boring, sterile WWE as it currently is
>>20596893It would be an interesting look. Bundy is 61, that's a perfect age for a "bastard child" gimmick. They should make Mason Bundy's illegitimate son.
>>20596898Bundy's been dead for the last seven years
>>20596893That sounds both like a Batman villain and kinda cool
>>20593764Mason should embrace the chav identity, fuck the "I'm the best anyweight" garbage, he should do a British white trash gimmick, basically a wrestling version of that British white trash guy that won the lottery
>>20590786MMA killed pro wrestling's popularity so they had to switch things up and pander to niche wrestling nerds.
>>20590840>If Newman was made a champ in the 2000s, NJPW would have been absolutely deadThis is indisputably true. The 70's, 80s, 90s. Anytime but now.
>>2059690367 today is still old enough to have an illegitimate 29 year old son, but good point. I didn't even know he was sick desu
>>20596935Fair point, could really play up the having to grow up with a trashy slag for a mom too, but again what we're coming up with is way too cool for modern WWE
>>20596893Shit we're long overdue for there being multiple monsters running around at one time
>>20590786>Brock LesnarThis shitter never drew a dime.I don’t understand why Vince, Inoki and Dana pushed him to the moon even at the cost of their companies.
>>20590786>How did things end up like that for the IWGP?Gedo is Chris Jericho's friend and a Meltzer mark.
>>20597013>I don’t understandyou must say that all the time
>>20590786They're letting streamers wrestle in Japan now?
>>20597025>streamersWhich makes me wonder...Would a Hasan type character work? Like an unapologetically heel character who basically is Hasan as a wrestler and talks mad shit to the audience and other wrestlers, taking on a holier-than-thou, self-righteous, but violent lunatic persona
>>20596742Nujamals think everyone who shits on their product is an E-Drone
>>20590786Why does the belt look too big for that fella?
>>20597652Because for an allegedly 6'1 man he's skinnyfat
>>20590786we went from real men to numales and homofags
>>20598087>topZero 5-stars>bottomMultiple 5-starsSuck on that, anti-smarks
>>20598087Chud Hogan is fucking dead lmao!
>>20598090>top All stars>bottomZero stars
NJPW's fanbase is made up of men who want to watch great wrestling and women who want to watch cute guys, so they intentionally target athletic twinky guys who can have great matches and look good in a photobook.
>>20596081>PiggaloI don't watch GayEW so I can't be a pig
>>20596782>Bob SappOne of the biggest draws in Japan>Scott NortonReal man and entertaining
>>20597013I think he might have drawn a dime before he started doing promos and they were pushing him to the moon, after that it was hard to take him seriously, in Japan no one cared>>20590840>If Newman was made a champ in the 2000s, NJPW would have been absolutely deadConsidering who were some of the champions at the time i have doubts, they had better looks but some of them had massive go away heat, wrestling fans did not want to see random MMA stars as champions
>>20598087Jay White is a gay cuck
>>20598087Omega is just as good (better).
>>20598144>NJPW's fanbase is made up of men who want to watch great wrestlingAnd they do it in the most boring, devoid of personality way possible.
>>20598386He's actually a happily married man and lives peacefully with his CIS female wife.
>>20598392>92
>>20590813>Go back to watching the best of Jey Uso matches on youtube or something.kek.
>>20598396You can be married to a woman and still be gay, it's called a Beard Marriage
>>20598386This is very true, I saw Jay White sucking dick behind a Home Depot
>>20590786Who is this limp wristed nobody? Is it an aew guy?
>>20593753faggot
>>20598476>is it an aew guy?Give it 2-3 years and he likely will be
>>20598476He's a gaijin in NJPW, we all know Tony almost certainly tries to get all of them.
Still strange that ZSJ is the only gaijin actively staying in NJPW, he's either that loyal or they didn't offer him the money he wanted
>>20598087Am I based if I prefer bottom? I don't wanna lie about my preferences
>>20590786Tony
>>20590813that part
>>20595069You should've seen him when he was young, like 2008, 2010 or so
>>20592831>still trying to get this "it was the AEW guys who hated Harold" shit over>the reality is, the Japanese guys hated him because he banned Chono from the G1 and then whored himself out publically all over the place for exposure
the one Inoki schizo on the board may be /pw/'s worst poster overallpretty sure he's also the hogan schizo and is just one of the most rampant e-drone psychos around
>>20593764Will used to work at my local leisure centre in Lincoln a few years ago. Nice guy.
>>20596742Did you miss Lesnar in the OP?
>>20590786Callum is Br*t*sh, so no shock he lives life as a numale.That country has fought like hell to stamp out masculinity
>>20598144No wonder nujamal is a dimeless bingo hall
>>20598144This is shoot gay porn
>>20598144YOH is the gayest man on God's Green Earth
>>20598090Meltzer stars mean jackshit
>>20598392Maybe on Planet Tranny
>>20598426samefag
>>20597045Yes they've tried that with Pepsi Phil in the past already sans the violent lunatic part
>>20590786Callum is a Br*tish, white faggot anti dimes """""wrestler""""". Nu Jamal never stood a chance.Wtf was Tanahashit thinking
>>20590813And the AEW "partnership" actually DID kill the company.
>Posting Dark age Brock Lesnarlmao
>>20590786Does he draw? That's the only important metric, nothing else matters
>>20602897Easy on the anti-whiteism.
