Can I just bring it to attention how Tomohiro Ishii is secretly one of the best guys NJPW has in its roster right now?
Dude consistently puts on either the best matches or the second best matches of the event wherever he appears.
Dude is like a fucking boulder that gained sentience and began beating the fuck out of people. He just arrives and fucks shit up before leaving with zero celebration.
>>2957958
Big Dick Dave said he's the MVP of the tourney
>>2957958
He'd be the undisputed GOAT if this was the 80s and 90s, its just, this is not his era.
DA POWAHOUSE ISHII-I! - Jim Ross, 2015
Reminder he's like 5'6
All manlets should aspire to be Ishii

Based 141 BITE (YOU)
He's awesome. The things he does in the ring and the way he engulfs you into believing in him that he can do it. He sells like noone else. I believe in his selling, it's just enough.
>>2957995
Probably because Ishii is like a bald asian dwarf. Dude is thick as fuck and also strong as shit for a manlet.

im a manlet and hes my hero

>secretly
Every smark that's aware of NJPW has been dickriding him since 2013. And he deserves it, the dude is fucking killing it.
I saw him wrestle Riddle last month and the dude is just ridiculous.
Easily my favourite guy in new japan right now
>We live in an era where Ishii will never hold the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
No one deserves it more.

>We live in an era where Ishii will never hold the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
>he's 41
>shits out amazing matches left and right
>he'll never win the heavyweight title
I wonder how long he's gonna be able to keep going. I wish he lasts as long as Suzuki.
He sucks
No selling and lariat spam =/= good wrestling
New Japan is so overrated by smarks at the moment thanks to Meltzer talking up geeks like Ishii and Omega as if they're something special
>>2958249
and right on queue, the e-drone is seething
Ishii v Honma is my favorite njpw feud. I lost my shit when he beat Okada last year.
>>2958265
Fuck off meltz-drone. I like NJPW but I'm not going to lie and pretend muh moveset midgets like Omega, Elgin or Ishii aren't boring as fuck losers who don't understand quality > quantity
>>2958316
Ishii doesn't have that many moves.
Ishii is amazing you REALLY forget he's like 3ft tall in his matches. Dude has that aura
>>2958666
This is correct. He doesn't rely on fancy moves at all. His sense of timing and storytelling are as good as anyone's right now. If you look at where he's been over the course of his career, it shouldn't be a surprise.
I mark the fuck out whenever Ishii randomly stops selling to get up and lariat the shit out of his opponent
imagine being such an anti-smark contrarian shithead that you have to act too cool for fucking Ishii of all people.
Yes guys, Ishii is horrible and never could be as entertaining as Nash
>>2958862
>Nash
At least be subtle soyou can get a couple of legit seethes under your belt
>>2957958
Ishii is the fucking best. His match with sabre and omega were probably the two best matches of G1 USA
>>2959300
In big matches near the top of the card, yeah you'll get sequences like that.
>>2957972
If you're the GOAT, it doesn't matter what time period it is, you fucking monkey.

Ishii is good at doing watered down stronk style; he'd be like the 5th biggest boy in BJW
>>2959493
BJW is trash except for Hideki Suzuki ya pinhead!!!
I fucking love his theme.
Kenny described him perfectly. A mix of old strong style with the new era of wrestling.
>>2959499
Kenneth finally said something that's not about praising The Elite or telling us how gay he is?
>>2959496
>thinking BJW is trash ayy lmao
their stronk style shits all over whatever NJPW puts out there
I'm not gonna bad mouth Hideki; he one of the best boys there
>>2959500
In this podcast

He talks about others things like music,learning japanese and the culture.
Cool stuff.

Besides his good matches, I just loved him beating the shit out of the young lions in that tag. Just relentless. It almost made up for YOSHI-HASHI being in the ring.
Ishii has been the best guy in New Japan for a while now, he never phones it in and brings out the best in everyone.
