WWE doesn't do subdued charisma particularly well, whereas the bombast of Nak is a more natural fit, even if it is more abstract than they're used to. Even if Naito was signed and he was used and communicated appropriately, I'm skeptical he would get over on the main roster. I could see Hiromu Takahashi occupying a Tajiri level of success.

Regardless, I doubt it gets to that. The signing blitz has to end at some point.

Naito's charisma is hardly what I'd called subdued.

Why?

AJ can get a great match out of Shane McMahon.... And Kenny is awesome.

I don't think Kenny or AJ can be compared to say Joe/Nak which under-delivered every-time, both Kenny and AJ can change up their style to fit the needs of the match.

Eh. To me the worst case is still KENTA.

First big name the trend started with,
got hurt frequently and severely enough he was gone for the boom and success periods of the names he was genuinely bigger than,
and finally back healthy at the peak of the era where he's been eclipsed by all the other signees of the last year and it's like if he had just been signed tomorrow, everyone would be like "oh, meh, KENTA's coming to WWE I guess"

AJ gets great matches out of everyone, whether it be Roman, Ambrose, Shane, hell he even had entertaining joke matches with James Ellsworth.

To think that 2 master ring tacticians like AJ and Kenny couldn't have a great match is madness.

by the time KENTA was signed by the WWE he wasn't the old KENTA.

I dont but my friend has a lot of The Elite/Omega/BC merch. Its never given him any trouble at all.

Whenever anyone does comment on a shirt either of us wear its never an issue or weird, people are usually just really happy to be able to have a brief chat about wrestling because it is still niche.

Oh I don't expect trouble I'd welcome the person who knew about a Bullet Club shirt.

Heroman is right only the Bullet Club and NJPW logo tee are the good ones on PWT. I wish they had better Omega ones

Yeah the only NJPW shirt I have is a black tee with the Lion Mark logo. I have an older Nakamura shirt too but unless people looked really hard they wouldnt know what it is.

In July I'm putting aside some money for some NJPW merch:

Bullet Club shirt (or might just get The Elite version)
LIJ Destino Shirt
Everything is Evil shirt
Some Young Bucks Shirt
Some Kenny Omega shirt

And maybe this

It's a joke because they're big fans of New Day (they literally wrestled a show in New Day Merch, and even filmed an episode of The Elite where a huge chunk of it was Kenny giving The Bucks New Day Merch)

Or yeah you can assume the absolute worst based of a joke.
