Show starts @ 5:30am EDT / 10:30am BST. 1 HOUR TILL SHO-TIMEAugust 12 will see the last night of A Block action for G1 Climax 36. The tour heads to Hamamatsu for the evening, as the first two semifinalists are determined for Ryogoku on Augsut 15, ahead of the grand final one day later. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i41UGobJNYc>G1 Climax A Block Match **Takeshita advances with a win, Oiwa advances with a win**Konosuke Takeshita (6-2) vs Ryohei Oiwa (5-3)>G1 Climax A Block Match **Tsuji advances with a win and a loss for Boltin, Lee is mathematically eliminated**Yota Tsuji (5-3) vs Jake Lee (3-5)>G1 Climax A Block Match **Boltin's best chance involves a win and a loss for Oiwa to Takeshita, O-Khan is mathematically eliminated**Boltin Oleg (5-3) vs Great-O-Khan (2-6)>G1 Climax A Block Match **Both men are mathematically eliminated**Hirooki Goto (3-5) vs Yuto-Ice (4-4)>G1 Climax A Block Match **Both men are mathematically eliminated**Shingo Takagi (4-4) vs SANADA (3-5)>Tag Team MatchTMDK (Hartley Jackson & Zack Sabre Jr.) vs Aaron Wolf & Tatsuya Matsumoto>Tag Team MatchUnited Empire (Zane Jay & Callum Newman) vs United Empire (Jakob Austin Young & HENARE)>Tag Team MatchYuya Uemura & Masatora Yasuda vs Unbound Co.

>>20990278https://g1.sportofprowrestling.com/The league match order for tomorrow's B block Finals has been set>Callum Newman (5-3) vs HENARE (4-4) **Newman advances with a win**>Yuya Uemura (5-3) vs OSKAR (4-4) **Yuya needs a win and either Newman or Narita to lose**>Gabe Kidd (5-3) vs Ren Narita (5-3) **Gabe needs to win and for either Yuya or Newman to lose, Narita advances with a win**>Aaron Wolf (4-4) vs Zack Sabre Jr. (4-4)Obv no Shota/Drilla because no Shota, and Drilla finishes with 10 points. Everyone at 8 points wrestling tonight will need to win but then also see Yuya and Newman lose to force a giant multiman tie. This would theoretically lead to some match to decide who takes 2nd place since the winner of Gabe vs Narita will be at 12 points.
if oiwa lose i will kill myself
>>20990283Less go Takeshita
not a insane takeshita hater but i want oiwa to win.
Everyone wants the Yuya/Oiwa final including me so>Oiwa>Tsuji>O-Khan (sorry)>SANADA (classic parity booking)A block has no bad possible winners except Takeshita, B block is pure terrorism and will unfortunately have my full anxious attention.
>>20990288well tonight I will be
Supporting the SANADSTER, GOATo, Boruchin, Tsuji and Oiwa. Don't know how that impacts the results, don't care. We'll see what happens when we fight our hearts out. KITA KITA KITAAA!
This has been the best G1 block in years and a few notches off from the prime G1 blocks from last decade. If only B wasn't so grim
>>20990359you’re spot on
Chris showed up for work today
>>20990359making one block good it was obvious that the other would be lackluster
>>20990364FINALLY
I MIGHT HIT THAT DRILLA RIGHT
>>20990368you missed the gif that you usually post.>>20990371oh its you
>this is Drilla's last G1 match because Shokek couldn't show up to do his jobSAD!
>>20990366Possibly the most important guy in the block, with the most main events got sidelined. It wouldn't have brought it up to A level, but that's a massive blow
big daike putting some muscle on
DAIKI HIT THAT DRILLA RIGHT
Holy shit
Jr title shot coming soon
>>20990382i still think that even if shota was there you'd had felt the difference in booking between the two blocks
I CANT THINK
>no tranny banner todayBoooooo
Wolfsimp is honestly such a geek, nigga brought his report card to class
did i miss something why he brought that thing on the ring?
Why is Walker yapping about the Rizzler
>>20990400It was before the show, chief of police gave him a certificate of recognition
>>20990401T H E R I Z Z L E R
Chris just referenced the succulent chinese meal meme, oh yeah i fucking KNOW you're on here bro, probably scrolling as you're speaking kek
>>20990406how u know?
>>20990406>nobody raging about AEWNah he isn't in the thread
*chris mysteriously goes silent on the comms during takeshita's match as the thread is spammed with toybox hatred*
funniest teamup ive seen in a while lol
Tatsu fucking dead
ya hear them birds chirpin, nigga?
OSHAAAAAAAA
Yuya got roll this nigga up
Really hope the Oskarder tones down the vanilla midget shit, especially after Wolf just christened it the "Katsushikan Destroyer" and is now gonna make it a regular move. We need a big dude doing big dude things
Njpw having a discord is wild to me
>>20990425This guy being Chris would be the funniest timeline
you have to go down tomorrow, big nigga
MAKE WAYMAKE WAYMAKE WAYFOR THE PRINCE
COOM INCOOM INCOOM INZOOMIE'S HOLES
>>20990433what the fuck does OSKAR do that's vanilla midgety?
10 point tie bros Im not flinching
>>20990449>>20990452Kek just realised that the Wolfmeister might have hit the destroyer as a rib
god newman's body is shit
oskar just needs to build more mass on his upper body. he big but still doesn't look heavy (which is why to me his sleeper hold looks weak)but takes time to build muscles... and i don't want him to get roids
HENARE is shorter than Jakob lol
Dangerous K.W.A.B. yet again
>>20990460on cagematch jakob is 175cm while henare 180cm (both on cagematch and wiki)
>>20990460Lowkey he would've worked better doing the same stuff but as a Jr
Wasn't HENARE the one that stopped Callum from SHIELD CHAIRing Ospreay at New Years Dash?
>>20990458He's just body recomping dude, he's 23. He was legit tiny before moving to NJPW. I'd rather he put on pounds the right way and slowly build muscle instead of roidtrooning
Alright time for SANADA kino
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
I'd hate to be in the building right now
2 newly married men going at it
Think SANADA and Goto will both hit 8. But also not sure if they'll KWAB Yuto out. Maybe one last unc wakeup call before he can take over next year
>>20990489>The laughing clown face taunting SANADA Kino
Poor Daiki is about to take whiskey to the eyes
LIJ community theatre time
>Shingo's right elbow taped up>SANADA's dying right elbow taped up>Marty's right elbow taped up
Sanada's a trooper taking that superplex when his body looks like that
KITA KITA KITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
SANADA's neck is in hell right now
COME ON SANADA YOU GOT THIS
SANADA'S ROAD
I hope SANADA gets some storyline progression at the G1 finals. You'd think HOT are gonna get a shake up with Shun Skywalker coming in
>>20990508elbow virus
HOLY SHIT HE DID IT
SANADA's wrestling IQ is unmatched
YESSSSSSSGOATNADA
Shingo kinda choked that shit kek but I'm still proud of SANADA for winning clean. Hope he joins his lij BROTHER in Unbound now that the crowd turned him face again.
Shingo said something to SanadaSanada started crying :(
Parityslop aside I'm so proud of SANADA's work in this G1.
Damn that was good
>>20990536TURNHIMFACE
>>20990508More people are right handed, more wear and tear on that arm
SANADA is still the coolest, fuck yall niggas
>>20990536SANADA has been consistently enjoyable since he joined J5G
jap solo sikoa
They want Goto to challenge Tsuji for a belt surely so him being the only guy in the tournament to pin Ice would mean a lot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Grvya5Ea3OwGOTOGIVE ME JUST ONE MORE DAY MY GOAT
GOTO-OHGOTO-OHGOTO-OHGOTO-OHGOTO-OHGOTO-OH
>>20990544not much of an insult anymore
>>20990544So he's the only reason to watch the promotion?
>>20990553They'd get along so well
>Finally beats Okada after years of trying>Defends against the younger generation in the G1>Is career-endingly injured but continues on>Defeats EVIL>Loses to his previous faction leader at WK and finally shows some emotion >His injury forces him to change things up>Turns heel and relies on weapons and run ins>Becomes pure charisma, the one thing that he didn't have against Naito >Disappears to get married>Is a new man once again>Now rediscovering himself against the younger generation that he once held back K I N O
>>20990540I have the feeling theyre just gonna ignore it or they tease a turn and he just stays where he's at. He sure as hell isn't getting a title shot.
>>20990563>He sure as hell isn't getting a title shot.He beat the champ though.
>>20990563I think his trajectory depends on where his body is at. If his body doesn't get better than this, they'll probably just keep him as a liked guy in a heel group.
nigga just lightly dropped him lol
That's 3 wrestling moves now, Chris.
>>20990563Tsuji lost to Goto and SANADA in the G1. Both are former champs. The story of Tsuji beating them on the way to WK writes itself
>>20990566he can get a surgery for both his amrs, the problem is that if he didn't do it before doing now might help in the long run if he wants to stay and wrestle more
GODTO GODTO GODTO GODTO
>>20990564Shota beat Zack last year and didn't get one. There's always 1 or 2 that dont see a shot post-G1
>>20990546You called it
hoes status: stunted on
>>20990546congrats anon, you won
>>20990574he got one at WRESTLE KINGDOM
BASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDBASEDGoto took him to school with that pinning combination. Yuto's weakness is always gonna be a crafty vet who can bust out a move he's never had used on him before.
>>20990546C I N E M A
>Great-O-KWAB finishes last in the whole tournamentya love to see it
based that they had the vet be the one to pin him
My fire is wild!
>>20990583Your cards won't save you anymore
That woman next to the Jakeler is absolutely creaming
This song is kinda growing on me
yep, Tsuji's losing
two clowns about to have a match
It's funny how Jake's return interview was deep and compelling, and now he's a bonafide gimmicky midcarder
Tsuji respecting this nigga more than OKhan still kills me
>>20990605Jake is at least trying. GOK is a fucking joke
this nigga is something else
jap commentary just been offtopicposting about the dark knight for the past minute kek
what the fuck is happened lol
Please tell me someone has Tsuji looking miserably at the camera with the lipstick on
Tsuji got his finna back
That chop was disgusting
Im having fun with this.
Its weird to have this as Tsuji's final block match
This is based
DUUUUUUUUUDE his fucking neck
I don't know how Jake is moving his limbs after that
>>20990613how do you understand them?
not that spear in the fucking corner, jesus
>>20990623It's not his last match of the tourney, so it's not that crazy.
G1 is still the best environment to level up in all of wrestling and Tsuj has separated himself from everyone in the company with this run. He can wrestle anybody's match style and get a match with real crowd heat every time.Beating Jake at his own clown game is awesome. A man who has to paint his own smile can never beat a man with a natural FINNER
yeah jake’s 100% not gonna remember this match #unsafeworker
>mfw I have to root for Great O Khan to win anythingcan they go to a draw?
>>20990636
Boltin needs to kill that mf
>>20990605Despite being limited, Jake has streamlined his whole moveset to get crowd reactions, Tsuji can work with that. GOK doesn't give a fuck about the crowd's enjoyment so he doesn't even deserve the fireblaster, a few gene blasters is enough for him
>>20990646Can't wait for Boltin to lose by count out
Boltin at least set up that he wants O-Khan to actually wrestle (grapple) him so hopefully this is actually good for a little while
>>20990636Makes you wonder what the schedule intensity would have done for Umino, I'm sad he missed it now after seeing how much Oiwa, Boltin and Tsuji made massive leaps in just a couple of weeks.
that stupid gook needs to drop the heavyweight belt already, he’s so vanilla & ick-inducing
I shant be watching this! Phone scrolling is the way
>>20990652Never fucking mind hes doing this shit now
>>20990654go goon to your saya kamitani trading cards, Kidani
>>20990652lol lmao
these heels fucking suck, man
Great-O-Khan games get the PiP treatment from me. Outside of the young lion tag matches, he's the only player that just post in the thread during the games of.
Don't boo, that'll just encourage him
Chris and Walker now cooking this nigga in kayfabe
Worst part is Boltin has to lose to this shitter if the toy is to be elininated
>>20990664lol the Cena effect
fucking kek, Boltin absolutely refused to take a chair bump for that mongolian shitter
kek I thought they were gonna trade shakes
GOK matches fucking stink because they force the babyface to act like a complete retard. Jake can do his shtick with the opponent fighting sensibly.
wow that spot was actually good
man i wished they had just sparred in grappling like Fujita and KUSHIDA
I always forget that O-Khan is actually one of NJPW's big fellas because of how he wrestles. He made Takeshita look normal sized too.
Ok wrap it up
Based good guy
i feel my despair increasing with every kickout please end it
>>20990679Great point
>>20990679It's more on the fact that his cheating feels so half hearted. Like he thinks the heat come from how flat his heel shit is
>Chris this has been a struggle since the very beginning You can say that again Walker
I don't even feel anything seeing a table spot
Grim.
At least he wasn't pinned I guess
Undeservedly grim ending for Oleg
SANADA has officially finished last :( great o cuck has the tiebreaker over him
>>20990710Sanada has 8 points, Okhan has 6 you idiot
>>20990712Oh yeah! WOOOO LETS GO SANADA
If Takeshita puts over Gripper, then I'll like him. If not then i'll blame Tony Khan
come on Oiwa and your shitty AI song
OIWA SEXOASHES THROW THE LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE
it had to be this way
LET'S GO BIG SEXY
Sorry but Take you have to lose on this I don't care.
I'M NOT A SHIT GUY ANYMORE
>>20990717a few of the songs have sounded suspiciously aisloppy to me, i hope they're not doing that because Drilla just got some bong soundcloud rapper to do his theme for a hotdog and a handshake and it's fire
Does Tsuji advance either way now or will it be Take and Oiwa advancing if Take wins?
Sad, liked the red one he wore yesterday.
Do it for /njpw/ Oiwa-kunDo it for Tsuji
Remember when there was that rumour going round, that there was a combined effort between AEW and NJPW to make Takeshita a "top Japanese star". What happened with all that?
The burial this would be if this guy skipped a preview tag yesterday to work a long singles match elsewhere and still tops the block and almost win the tournament
>>20990732Amasaki announced that she was single recently. Roughneck is nursing his CTE all by himself.
>>20990737to be fair, WPP was booked months before G1 so in this case is not on his side
You can hear the crowd is so behind Oiwa right now.
YOU'VE GOTTA MAKE THE FINALS FOR TENZAN, YOUNG MAN
oh god this headlock is gonna fuck him isnt it
>>20990752Hes got the full Tenzan hair too. They'd be retards to fuck him over like this.
COME ON SEXOOOOOOOOOO
I wonder if Takeshita will actually joins NJPW full time in the future. I imagine the AEW payday is hard to turn down
Takeshita makes every spot so fucking obvious
>>20990761he said in his podcast that he took the hard choice to work abroad because he wanted to build a family, even if it's away from his family and friends so i guess depends. probably with time he will wrestle more in japan than aew. i hope for him
actually on the edge of my seat
These nearfalls
blue thunder bomb to raging fire isn't it
>>20990768>>20990770fraid’ so.
Headbutt to Big Lock
FUCK YES
OIWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
OIWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1GRIP1
TSUJ AND OIWA
Holy fucking dimes
i’m so pumped
Fair play to Takeshita for tapping to a Boston Crab at WK and not getting out the blocks the G1 after he won it
good job oiwa, so proud of you (also good job both)
>>20990780take is not a self mark at all, he gets a lot of hate that tone should get instead
thank goodness
>2,075人(満員)
Now im worried that Gabe is getting through
>>20990788OH YOU DIDN'T KNOW?
Oiwa trying out outhotdog Yuya
if the booking is smart Oiwa and Yuya is the final
>>20990785That part
He so damn sexy, bros
oiwa’s a star
>>20990800He doesn't have a bad back so it likely wont take 13 minutes
Oiwa is not a shit guy anymore!
