What the fuck was his fucking problem?

He forgot that wrestling is fake

He shot himself into a work that turned out to be a shoot

Brother

He's too good for this industry.

Willingness to do anything and everything to win the title. Throw caution to the wind to overcome the biggest foe in his life.

Shibata is shonen manga main character. He has a lifelong friend who is also his rival. He had to get back respect from his senpais and his teachers who he betrayed when he left. And also there is this champion, best in the world. Who survives everything you can throw at them.

Shibata knew he has this ONE chance. This only attempt to be the best in the world. And he almost died doing that.

If anyone ever tells you NJPW have no stories send them to hell. There are plenty of stories.

And this was beatiful. It maybe cost us one of great wrestlers of today's but his story was worth it.

>>2574962
Okay that's all great for Shibata the character.

But Shibata the guy should've just headbutted his thumb.

>>2574970
Of course. But who am I to say to him not to do what he feels is necessary for his story, for his character?

And this shot, this shot with the crowd loving this was awesome.

Was a loser in MMA so he had to overcompensate in fake fighting. NJPW will be better off without him.

It's always funny to see wannabe mma fighters like Bryan, punk and this gook try to act hard in a wrestling ring.

The man is a living anime character, okata is having a GOAT title run with motherfuckers willing to shoot brain themselves to beat him

>>2574943
Where's the proof that the injury was career ending?

>>2575726
Le Meltz said it was a shoot and he was rushed to the hospital after passing
Then Le Meltz said it was a work
Then recently Le Meltz said it was real and he may never wrestle again

All according to his y'know... his sources.

But the dude legit looked like he had a noodle arm and was walking on a dead leg after the match and kept falling down. So I probably believe he was actually partially paralyzed on one side of his body and he obviously got a concussion. Also If he got external bleeding from the headbutt he could have easily gotten internal bleeding in the head as well. So the subdural hemotoma can be a legit injury, but they're saying he can remember stuff and move his arms/legs after the surgery for now and there is a possibility that the paralysis might show up again, so that's why they're saying he can't/shouldn't wrestle.

le strong style meme was a mistake

wew not liking strong style

>>2574958
Actually he went to MMA, got whooped, and ran back to wrestling.
>yfw he's literally not good enough for either industry

Jap syndrome. Doesn't know the shit is meant to be fake.

>>2575053
CM Punk never tried to act hard though. He always was, and always will be a complete bitch.

>>2574962
Holy fucking cringe.

>>2574962
maximum cringe

>>2574962
Jesus fuck man

So how exactly did Okada avoid his own brain imploding when they both ate the same headbutt?

>>2574962
Holy cringe.

>>2574962
Please tell me you copy-pasted this from reddit, lad.

>>2576320
Luck. Big Dick Dave spoke about it last week, said how dumb it was to do this spot because it could easily have been Okada with brain damage right now.

Nip wrestling would never recover.

>Gets beat in MMA
>Means he's not good enough for fake fighting
THE STATE OF SMARKS

>>2576340
Well, when he gets heemed out of one sport, then heems himself out of another sport.
Yeah he's not good enough for either industry. Just a ubiquitous flop.

>>2574962
>killing yourself in a fake predetermined contest against another guy only to do IRL anime to an audience of maybe 1500 japs in a dojo
>good story
Also, fucking cringe

>>2574962
You could tell that fucking story very easily without giving yourself brain damage.

>>2576338
This, the worst part about headbutt spots is that you end up possibly dragging your opponent to the hospital with you if he's unlucky.

But the real reason is that Okada, like all other people on the receiving end of Shibata's recent headbutt spree, got headbutted once, while Shibata was the common denominator in all those headbutt spots.
