Hey guys -- my company posted a little highlights package of the Middle Kingdom Wrestling match of the year. I chose a remixed version of Kuja's final form theme from Final Fantasy 9 to go with it. Thought that WrestleGAF would appreciate that

Get signed by wwe 👍

in case it wasn't clear that they don't give a FUCK about their fans already...

For those with Demand PROGRESS, what's a good starting off point? Should I just start from Chapter 1 or is there a best place to start to just catch up with current storylines?
I'm currently in the main event of the first Chapter, so wanted to know if I was better off jumping forward or not.

Everything's been a bit up in the air lately, which handily means you can start with Chapter 38 or 39 even, and have a good idea of the current lay of the land.

Yeah, probably wouldn't recommend starting at Chapter 1 - the quality (both in-ring and production-wise) improves a lot later on. Chapter 7's a good starting point for the whole Havoc storyline, which closes with Chapter 20.
Personally, I'd just jump in at Chapter 36, catch up with the newer shows and then go back to watch the older stuff if you feel like it.

Ah right, I had heard about the Haskins injury causing the title to be vacated, so I guess that makes sense. Is the Super Strong Style 16 worth watching too?

Definitely, both years are, but not required if you want to catch up to storylines, you can always go back after

Watching Bring It To The Table
So are they just bringing up legitimate complaints and giving company answers? Lol
There's an occasional flash of a real answer but otherwise bullshit

It feels like their attempt at Pardon The Interruption.

So I just signed up to NJPW World now my Japanese reading skill is non existent, but how do I search for a specific event or show?

Cheers guys. I think I'll do the SSS16 today, since tomorrow and Thursday mornings will be spent on Wrestle Kingdom & New Year's Dash, so that means I can start catching up from Friday. Will easily get that done by the 15th, so I can then pay attention to ICW and PROGRESS simultaneously.
Also just realised that ICW are doing show same day as the WWE Tournament, which is a bit of a pain, also means no Trent or Wolfgang (unless one loses in the first day) to build for their rematch. Will need to avoid spoilers then.

Bring it to the Table is like a weird blend of work and shoot different from Talking Smack's brand
It's like the company itself shooting

The fact that their biggest defense of it was TV contracts says something.

Uh ok I found the AJ vs Nakamura match from last years Wrestle Kingdom but this seems to only be the hype video not the match itself.

The easiest thing is to use the Chrome English converter and then clicking on the link that lists all of tags and searching from there.

Use the series list to find a specific event; http://njpwworld.com/series the tag list is useful as well; http://njpwworld.com/tag/

Getting Peter to host that show should tell you exactly the kind of mess it's going to be and no time should be wasted on it.

If you're watching 3 hours of them being subtle about how much they hate you, theoretically you'd be fine with a 4th hour following that, openly telling you how much they hate you
Bring It To The Table is WWE trying to do the ESPN talking heads thing like Pardon The Interruption. I think they even try to do the competing viewpoints thing with JBL and Heyman like ESPN does. They fail miserably because they're not a third party commenting on the issues like PTI is.

Yes
WWE has become so embracing of their hate for the audience in the past year that honestly we're one step away from this being the official closing bumper of all their programs

I get far more entertainment from watching people rip on WWE than I'd ever get from watching RAW.
Also just seen Jinder Mahal, that dude is fucking RIPPED. He's gotta be on something.

Parts of it work but the cracks show when it's obvious they're just giving company responses
Maybe it's on the host for bringing stuff like that up, but I have to imagine that someone's just feeding him shit to get people to tune in (and be disappointed)
I'd also appreciate if they abstained from the Brock Lesnar storyline shit, it's dumb to have Heyman in promo mode for one question but then the rest is casual radio talk
It actually seems like a show I'd want to watch if they cut the bullshit, so we'll see I guess. Give them a few weeks to attempt to figure their shit out and see where it goes. A show just talking about rumors/speculation/whatever could even be cool if it was more positive than "rabble rabble fans just complain"
