Koji Kanemoto vs Yuji Nagata - G1 Climax XVI - (NJPW 08/12/2006)
Oh, this is all kinds of awesome - Kanemoto has 4 points at this stage, two victories and a loss, to Nagata's 3 points from one victory a loss and a draw. Despite that, Nagata is decidedly the favourite. Things start out amicably enough with some great back and forth mat wrestling, before Kanemoto decides to kick it up a notch. As expected, this doesn't sit too well with Nagata. Kanemoto has the agility and the striking ability, but Yuji has the strength and the experience and proceeds to fuck shit up, mercilessly tearing Kanemoto to pieces with some vicious knees and an array of suplexes and backdrops. Nagata is a massive dick to Kanemoto in this one and all the while Kanemoto sells the injured arm Nagata tweaked in the opening minutes of the match and continues to do so throughout. The crowd respond perfectly, getting well behind Kanemoto as he shows his fire and desperately tries to make a comeback, which leads into a great finishing sequence. If you like your wrestlers to be grumpy, kicky and fairly hard-hitting, I'd make some time to watch this match, it's real good fun.

Oh nice, I'll have to listen to that - I'm not as familiar with Kanemoto's work as I'd like to be, as I didn't really follow New Japan too closely in the mid-00's, just NOAH and some Dragon Gate mostly.
Love his match with Fujita from '09, though;

How he doesn't come off as a creepy scumbag to every woman in that locker is hard to understand. I guess with the other main eventers taken they gotta settle on old man Punk
He's an asshole in a professional locker room, so guys won't whoop his ass, and he's a min eventer. To a girl like AJ, who's never been popular before wrestling, he must seem incredibly cool.

Orton with cena winning at the rumble
I'm hoping that they'll reveal that the belts got lost, and Kane will have to go on a search for them that will lead him all over the world, only to return months from now with a long beard, and then realize that he left them back in the closet at the arena for safe keeping.
Has he been with every diva?
Orton due to shenanigans. Then they'll make it look like Cena will win the Rumble, maybe even being the last man eliminated by the winner. Then HHH will make the Elimination Chamber match determine the third man in the Mania main event which Cena wins. Then he goes on to Mania where he loses when Bryan makes Orton tap to the Yes Lock. Then as Bryan celebrates Punk comes down with the newly unified IC/US title and they hug as confetti flies down.
Ok it turned into a fanfic/rehash of WM20 at the end, but I can see everything up to EC happening.

Gonna go grab some snacks for the PPV. I'm thinking a 99¢ Arizona Arnold Palmer, Nacho Doritos, a Subway sub, and some type of chocolate pastry or cookies.
damn I wish I remembered to go buy some stuff.
I'd love to buy some combos for the PPV. especially pizza flavored combos.

Just read about the AJ drama....
WWE seems like the worst highschool ever.

This is perfect!
You haven't noticed that from how they handle their own primetime TV?
Hell this has been going on since the Attitude era. Jericho was bullied by DX when he arrived and got heat for cutting a promo on Undertaker that was telling the truth about how bad his promo was.
Wrestling has ALWAYS been high school bullshit. It's no wonder the fans are immature when there's about a thousand stories of wrestlers acting like children.
It's why I like Nash so much. Guy seemed above it all which makes everyone go 'oh he had an ego.' I'd have an ego too if I was getting paid and not dealing with you little fucking kids and your WRESTLERS COURT

Was it the promo where Undertaker was talking about how him and The Big Show went on some couples bike ride in the desert and Big Show was going to wear his skin?
It's a wrestling thing, but in 2013, when WWE is a publicly traded global company with a major corporate image, this carny nonsense still permeating the TV shows and company in general is downright embarrassing.

So badass. I hate that they're teasing the Shield breakup already. These guys should be the "Strike Back" ass kicking buddy squad of the WWE, and they should've kept up with the helicopter entrance gimmick, at least for some of the bigger shows.
Wait a minute, who are you guys angry at? All we've had thus far are unsubstantiated reports about how AJ confronted Beadle.
The most believable one is that AJ decided to have a quiet talk with Beadle away from everyone, but it got leaked on the internet, and it's being blown out of proportions. However, AJ could have actually started arguing loudly with Beadle and it got escalated. Either way, how is any of this the WWE's fault? These are adults have a dispute related to their relationship.

The titles have been unified-- into Fandango's balls.
Yep, Personification of boredom

True, but at least they have approved from what it was in the past. Also, wrestling is like this. Hey at least there is no stories in the WWE about wrestlers peeing on girls, wrestlers getting so drunk they try to get on a flight when its the next day.
I loved that so much. Yea I hate that they might break up soon. Them, Punk and Bryan were the glue that stuck the year together. Without them this would had been a way worse 2013.
I dislike WWE's TV conduct in general. This isn't specifically about AJ.
I can understand that, but it seemed like you were pointing this out as some kind of example, when it clearly isn't. The other examples somedevil gave were nearly 15 years ago.
TLC pre-show is starting.
