have the chinks forgotten that wrestling is fake? that you're not meant to really hit the other guy?
imagine the smell
>>2801189
Smells better than that skyscraper of shit known as the Miz.
>>2801187

TEME!

Ishii is the best seller
ONORE
Any update on his condition?
Wrestling used to be about hitting the other guy so your fake punches look real but didn't hurt. Now it's about hitting the other guy so your real punches look fake but hurt.
who else got hella sad about Shibata, he was my favorite wrastler.
>>2801841
He was one of the guys who got me back into wrestling and I still feel bad thinking about what happened to him.
>>2801809
Had a craniectomy (where they remove part of your skull for a while to reduce swelling), but it's risky long term because of infection while it's healing in the next few years. He can't see properly and can't feel much down one side.
And mentally he's totally fucked because he thought he was superman athlete and now can't do anything.
Unironically sad, feels bad for him.
>>2801841
Still depressed.
>>2801841
I don't even like thinking about it. Its that infuriating.
>>2801830
Funk & Lawler threw potatoes all throughout the 70s.
But hey, keep quoting Cornette!
>>2801857
That shit is plain depressing.
>>2801857
What a retard
>>2801867
This. Corny is a fucking hypocrite.
>>2801933
Fuck you
>Yes SEETHING
More cool Shibata gifs/webms, please.
>>2801841
First I was really sad about Honma, since I was just starting to become a fan of his. Then, Shibata totally fucked himself up. At least Honma was talking about returning (even though it sounds like he had a pretty severe neck injury). Shibata will never wrestle again for sure. If he does, he's going to put himself in the fucking ground. Dumbass would probably do it with another headbutt, too.

>>2803179
Shibata wouldn't be in as bad of a state if he weren't so dehydrated, it's not really his fault
>>2801181
Is Shibs an edgy character done right?
>>2806838
It's his fault for regularly using the headbutt, hydration or no.
His other shit still looks really cool but the headbutt was way too dangerous
>>2801194
Are you trying to trigger that miz copypasta?
>>2806853
Yes
>>2807012
>tfw no daughter to cosplay with as your favorite wrestler
Shibata is wrestle-Kino personified
>>2806997
>regularly
But he's only used THE headbutt like 3 times over the course of 2 years
>>2803185
Looks more like a bump to me.
>>2801857
I don't. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, anon.

YAMERO!!!!!!!
>>2802537
>Know more about concussions and brain damage than ever before
>Shibata starts experiencing temporary blindness and numbness in his limbs
>Doesn't see a doctor
>Shibata still goes out there dehydrated and headbutts people
Yes, Shibata is a retard.

He provided us with excellent matches and will hopefully be gifed in many threads like these for years to come.
Rest easy, Shibata o7
>>2809232
Yep. I have no sympathy for the guy
>>2809232
*headbutts (you)*

>>2809302
Yes, I think they both knew how good the match turned out.
>>2809232
Agreed, don't follow NJPW closely like you fucks but he must've known the damage he'd be causing to not just himself but his ring partner. He's got himself to blame.
>>2809232
I feel like in a world where Chris Benoit and Tim Hague are dead, and the circumstances surrounding their deaths have been dissected, wrestlers should be a bit more careful around head trauma. Shibata gambled and lost, but he should have known the deck was loaded from the start given his style.
weird how outlaw wrasslin fanboys act like this kind of wrestling is good when it is literally ending people's lives
>>2809408
>Live and die for your art
or
>Wrestle some shitty matches for 20 years then retire to make hollywood c-list movies
Hmmmm
>>2809509
>Wrestling
>Art
>>2809549
Pro wrestling is a performance art.
It's about telling a story of good vs bad. To elicit emotion and response.
Literally the definition of art.
>>2801185
Which match was this?
>>2811735
G1 climax. It's right there in the billboard.
>>2808053
THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOUR SPINE AND BRAIN YOU DUMB GOOKS
I want to watch NJPW and workout now, did I get a clue?
>>2809574
You get it and so do the fans of NJPW who are mostly adult and elderly. Refined taste. I saw a grandma with the new Tanahashi shirt on and a few months ago, one with EVIL's hair.
>>2813272
Yes
