I still can't believe how bad they botched the entrance for aj. Literally just had to have the camera pointed at the screen to see the words and pull down to the hype.

 

[SallyIsNow]

AJ wishes he had such an iconic rumble entrance. /s

Quit tryin to fit in, mark.

 

[klonere]

Writing that up was real easy, maybe I should apply for a job there

aaahahahahahahahahAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[Brian_FETO]

The fact that they actually went back and released an "alternate camera" version on youtube is amazing

I actually prefer the OG to that version too, solely because they added a bunch of extra crowd footage to act like it wasn't just that shot that was fucked

The Reigns handicap one is depressingly close to the parody one posted in this thread earlier.

its so dumb they made him come out as diesel.

They did that on purpose to put up the Youtube video with extra angles

It's because he cost Punk the title isn't it.

More like a kaizer roll

 

[klonere]

Well, look who's on the poster.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

I still think it's kinda funny that Charlotte canonically debuted in WCW.

Don't remind Vince, she'll be buried.

Charlotte here is pretty much everyone when it comes to Vince Russo.

 

[FlammableD]

Apparently New Japan also changed their contracts to be multi-year.

Something Something Royal rumble something something big dog.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Cnn actually covered the soulja boy and Chris Brown fight announcement. I wonder if Vince is going to promote the hell out of shaq v show ao he can get that treatment too?

Wouldn't you hear something from Shaq if that was a potential thing by this point?

Well I'll be damned.

I hope Shaq vs Big Show is as carny as Mayweather vs Big Show, brass knuckles and all.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Well I'll be damned.

I'm hyped as hell for this

 

[Anth0ny]

it's about time they start building big show for the big match at the big show against big shaq

 

[Sephzilla]

I hope Shaq vs Big Show is as carny as Mayweather vs Big Show, brass knuckles and all.

Mayweather vs Big Show was legitimately great. Mayweather took some good bumps, that spot where Mayweather takes a quick water break and drinks from a fucking chalice was funny as fuck, and Mayweather in general seemed like he "got it" with wrestling.

 

[Recall]

According to Meltzer: Omega's NJPW contract supposedly ends on Jan 31st yet he is scheduled to come back to NJPW in March.

Edit: Which to me means Meltzer isn't sure what is going on but has been told Omega taking a break until March

I think at the very least, Shaq will get the larger than life character part of wrestling. We'll see how he does with the wrestling part of wrestling.

Just give Shaq an open mic

 

[miserable]

Sapp was so freakin' over in Japan

 

[slightconfuse]

Rather have rodman vs show

Get ready for Shaq to bust out a shooting star press and get that 7 star rating

They fell in love when I was watching and smooched each other.

 

[Kaladin]

They fell in love when I was watching and smooched each other.

They broke up and insulted each other's artificial intelligence when I watched.

 

[Menome]

They also started talking about favourite foods and one of them asked if they had ever tried eating human.

 

[avengers23]

Joe.

JoJo?

 

[wild wild rice]

Now that I subscribed to NJPW, the temptation to cancel WWE is greater than ever. If there was no AJ, I wouldn't think twice. But don't tell Vince. I don't need him raiding NJPW again.

 

[HazySaiyan]

Shaq needs to come out dressed as Kazaam.

 

[klonere]

This week's Between the Sheets features The Fingerpoke of DOOM

Can't wait to see what was happening behind the scenes here and what Meltz said at the time.

Lol Blue, Coach will do that for him.

I find the more I watch wrestling that's presented as a sport, the less tolerance I have for WWE's sports entertainment fuckery.

NJPW was brand new to me as of about a year ago, but after WK11 I made the full transition to being a fan.

GO ACE

 

[klonere]

GO ACE

It's a pretty great song for a guy who is delusional about his place in the company.

Old man Tana still thinks he's ace, commissions a song that literally screams it at everybody.

 

[avengers23]

Evolve strikes a good balance there as well, but I think they can do more in presenting it with the seriousness of a sport.

Of course, GabeS also needs to rebuild the top of that card now that Gulak and Heronare gone. But they have Cobb, so they're one step closer.

It's a pretty great song for a guy who is delusional about his place in the company.

Tana could be great as the delusional former ace; it could be incredible when he snaps.

He's still trying to come off as a shooter here: http://twitter.com/njpw_daisakusen/status/818338197700825090

But all I see is an old man walking around some rooftops with a plastic airsoft gun

Then loses, picking up a token win for the random 6 man belt.

 

[klonere]

The middling reaction to Style Battle/FUCK YOU THIS IS FULL IMPACT FUCKING PRO has me worried that Gabe is spread a bit thin. Wasn't that why he left ROH in the first place?

 

[Bluekaveli]

Which one you taking?

Or

 

[BronsonLee]

Tana as crazy ex-ace=yes

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Someone just needs to tell Gabe maybe he shouldn't have a million promotions

Imagine how much FloSlam must be paying just Gabe alone to air all his shit. No wonder they're asking $20 a month

 

[SallyIsNow]

Which one you taking?

Or

Benoit's was WAYYY fucking worse. His head bounced off the fucking floor.
