Are there any New Japan fans here? I have a few questions: Why

>>1700087
>Why do the wrestlers keep wearing the same gear for most if not all of their careers?
Branding.
>Why are there so many women in the crowds?
Bitches drip for the Rainmaker and white bois
>Why isnt Kojima higher on the card?
'Cause he's like 45
>Why do they always do the near countout spot in the singles matches?
Tension ya pinhead
>Is there a chance NJPW would ever feature women?
No because NJPW is smart.
>Is there a way for a wrestler to actually get disqualified?
I think they just prefer giving decisive winners, so they avoid DQs. It's refreshing as fuck tbqh

>>1700095
> ya
> el cucter confirmed outraw peruwresingu fraggle from /wew/

>>1700095
this anon is spot on^
>>1700323
NJPW is fucking great man. It's actually about wrestling and telling a clear story in ring. You need to know no Japanese and you can tell exactly what's going on.

You're a cancer to wrestling man, I like WWE's product but to not enjoy other products because loloutlawwrestling memes are dank is fucking stupid and devalues wrestling as a whole

>>1700323
>Anon makes a good post
>Start talking about tripfag metashit instead
Why does this board love to worship tripcunts?

>>1700352
It's always Bretfiend. He's obsessed with his gay lover

shibata is overated.

>>1700360
I expected more out of the Silas Young DBD match, it was ok.

>>1700360
>Gimmick is that he's a shoot fighter with MMA experience

>you somehow knowing OP is a tripfag from another website
>you obviously browse wew enough to identify this or assume

>>1700095
To add to this:

Japanese wrestling separates men and women into different companies, so it's highly unlikely NJPW will get a women's division. Honestly there's no call for one with big women's wrestling companies like STARDOM around

Wrestlers can get DQ'd in the same ways as other wrestling promotions, it's just that as WWE has shown, ending big matches on a DQ is a fucking stupid idea, so they bend the rules for big matches: for example if the Bullet Club had tried to help Kenny Omega at the G1, the official would've thrown them out first, and only DQ'd Kenny if they refused to leave.

>>1700366
His gimmick is that he's the banished son. He was groomed to be a top guy but fucked off to fight MMA. In the mean time he was surpassed by his peers while he failed miserably. His come back was about redemption and hitting his stride again.

Will Bad Luck Fale actually amount to anything? Seems like he's just been "there" for years now.

>>1700912
He's been protected as fuck for a long time, if Kenny ever fucks off to WWE you think Biz Cliz continues with him as leader?

>>1700935
I don't know. Wouldn't Tama make a better leader?

>>1701277
Only Onita's entrance. Chono looks like the fucking geek that he is

>>1700977
They bleed the hard way, but I doubt it's ever planned.

>>1701285
your opinion is shit

>>1700991
Tama tonga abd the bucks say hi

O and cole

>>1701394
He's a fucking geek

Onita is perfectly edgy and cool strolling into his theme with a steel chair having trash thrown at him and there's several cool bits like him raising the chair at the ramp, taking a seat, looking around to have a smoke, dumping the drink on himself, brushing the water out of his hair. Onita is a piece of shit but he is very cool in this entrance

Chonoetty is a giant dork, heading in the ring in a jeep before his music starts. Then he exits the jeep almost immediately then briskly walks down the ramp with a cigar in his mouth and shrugging, not ever smoking the cigar. Also his vest is stupid. Basically Austin should have botched that piledriver even worse

test

I'm still only 7 days into the G-1, idk how people did it there is so much wrestling recently

>>1701814
How are you watching it? I'm on day 7 too. Even getting through a single day can hassle even if you skip the undercard. i guess the people that watched it live are used to it

>>1700554
Kek Brit faggot just got exposed

>>1700912
Fale is terrible and has already been pushed far harder than he warrants

I'm so tired of him shitting up the G1

>>1701858
>Fale is terrible
I don't think he his. He needs to lose some fucking weight though

>>1701873
Then you haven't watched enough of his stuff. He's the least watchable BC member after Yujiro

>>1701937
Fucking nah. Yujiro is another level of unwatchable. Fale's okay when he wants to be, lets say that.

Who /YoshiHashi/ here? guy's winning me over this year.

>>1701946
Fale is OK when Ace of the Universe is carrying him and that's about it.

>>1701948
Wouldn't mind him forming a trios team and going for the NEVER 6-Man Titles

>>1700554
> not knowing el cucter is the only person cringeworthy enough to call someone 'ya pinhead'
> not knowing only chortling wewtists talk about NGayPW
Wew lad

>>1701948
Here, ive always liked Yoshi

Im hoping he gets with Birdo, the little green nigger deserves some happiness

>>1700095
>Bitches drip

Implying jap women have vaginal fluid.

>>1700087
>>1700095
Another reason there are so many women is that the men are at work. Japanese men work absurd hours, which is why most daytime/evening tv shows' live audiences there are females or NEETS.

>>1702125
Alright that was a good one

>>1702211

Gedo is the worst.

>>1701814
Day 8 is GOAT

Nagata vs. Nakajima is the best match of the whole tournament.

>>1702828
>Nakajima
There's no way he ever makes the jump to NJPW is there?

How big is the fandom for NJPW? Do they have batshit crazy female fans like WWE etc.?

>>1702740
Aren't they going to have Okada vs. Kenny now? makes sense if you put it in that perspective

>>1704835
Naito vs. Omega is a lot more interesting than Okada

If Naito wasn't getting the G1 he should've at least been champ during it

Japanese they are a fierce warrior ... they never got to beat the strongest nation on Earth ... but they reached Burmese border vvhich is very close,

How the fuck do I get into watching current NJPW? I know they have some english commentary ones but I'm just baffled at where to start with it desu

>>1705426
New Japan doesn't really have a "weekly" show like North American promotions do.

Destruction is their next big event

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Destruction_(2016)#Matches

>>1705429
Thanks Anon, I guess I figured they'd have a weekly TV show just based on their size. Oh well

>>1705433
They're a touring promotion, it's not the same schedule as you'd see in America.

>>1705436
Makes sense. About how often are their events?

>>1705440
Usually bimonthly, with a bunch of tours and "Road To" shows as well

Why is Fale feuding with the announcers?

>Why are there so many women in the crowds?

Japan figured out to market their good looking wrestlers to yaoi fan girls

>>1706606
literally make him look strong, everything he does is to make him look strong, he still looks strong even when he loses its pretty fucking based

>>1706606
Because he's the under boss

>>1705332
I'm with this anon, pretty disappointed Naito got like a 90 day run if that

just watch some of the best matches from the last year or so

>>1705426
NJPW on AXS got me into it and it's even better now that Good ol JR is calling the matches.

Is there any important backstory for the feuds right now. I want to start watching, and I'll start at Destruction 2016, but I haven't really watched anything by NJPW (except wrestle kingdom 10 because of that anon that kept going on about Okada vs Tanashi and AJ vs Nakamura)

>>1708124

Just watch Kenny Omega vs Tetsuya Naito from G1 Climax a few weeks ago

>>1708124
Honma is the best underdog in the biz and Shibata is a total dick to him (also everybody, because he's an asshole)

>>1700087
Where the fuck can I get an english commentary site for NJPW G1 Climax 2016 ? I want to watch but all the jet torrents I got don't have a word in english

Where the fuck is based Jim Ross ?

nope.
>>1700971
he basically is, omega and the young fucks are being gay with each other while tama, his brother, fale and yukiro are bullet club.

>>1708330
Honmania running wild is one of the only reasons I even watch NJPW anymore.

>>1700087

Please fuck off with your outlaw weeb wrestling.

Take your outraw gookshit back to wew you chortling cunts

>>1710911
This

>>1706616
Exactly.

>>1710888
I don't know. Kenny did wave the bullet club flag when he won G1.
Anybody else feel that this whole 'Elite' thing is a brand he's pushing that he could actually take with him to WWE, unlike the Bullet Club brand?

>>1710911
>/wwe/ babby this mad

Where was all these fans before BushiRoad?

>>1710848
>>1710848

>>1711365
>>1710848
there was english commentary only on the last few days

jim ross is doing commentary for shows a year old leading up to WK10

>>1711077

I don't get the hype that his drop kick gets.

>>1711396
Suwamas drop kick is better, more rough.

>>1711396
height and technique

>>1711401
But plenty people can do it better. Not even top 5.

Whats the point to Goto?

>>1711404
great matches with everyone

>>1711404
Babyface go to guy.

>>1711405
Must suck for him. They really messed up him joining CHAOS. He's just the same Goto with a sweet new finisher.

>>1711404
to lose

>>1703293
The way this NJPW vs. Noah feud is panning out its likely.

He did beat Elgin at the G1 too, so he is granted a future IC title shot of Naito doesn't win it at Destruction.

>>1705426
NJPW has a weekly show, Friday nights on AXSTV hosted by JR.

>>1711464
Unless they close down Nowah, I don't think so.

>>1711464
doubtful, I assume they realized sending Suzuki and KES to Noah was pretty retarded and decided to put Noahs best on a bigger platform in NJPW in an effort to promote it, if it doesnt help then maybe

>>1711476
Put NOAH out of its misery. It doesn't provide an alternate product to NJPW and it doesn't draw

>>1708114
JR and Josh Barnett are the most based announcing duo. Barnett is as well-versed in pro-wrestling as he is in MMA and JR is of course JR.

>>1711404
He's kind of like the Roman Reigns of New Japan: They want him to get over with the crowd, but the crowd just doesn't want him. They cared more for Kenny Omega than Goto.

>>1700991

Step up, fag.

>>1711403
Post Top 5

>>1712362
Goto isn't anything like Reigns in execution, he's lost clean a ridiculous amount of times

>>1700087
1. Personal choice. Some wrestlers change it up with different colors but typically the just stick to their signature. Some really change it up like with Okada and Naito.

2. I don't know.

3. Too old to be pushed.

4. because they want to

5. no. Woman usually have their own promotions.

6. Yes, but bullshit finishes insult audience's intelligence.

Watch old stuff like AJPW, NJPW (90's stuff), and early PRO NOAH.

>>1712362
nah he's the cesaro of new japan

He's a vet in the twilight of his career and has accomplished plenty already.
