"He's very cerebral"

 

[Hex]

Seriously Ross is REALLY affecting this for me.
It is blatantly obvious he does not know the product, it is obvious he does not care about the product or the wrestlers and is there to collect a paycheck.
He repeats thing, it sounds like ie is literally really cliff notes

 

[The Strokes]

Man Cesaro would be so great against Ishii

Why is that guy not one of the main talents of WWE is something I'll never understand.

 

[serenewarfare]

Reading this thread WWE better be preparing a book of all the women's name, pictures of them, moves, finishers and backgrounds for JR to memorize before that tournament starts.

He seems to actually care about his WWE gigs though. He was good at Mania and really great with the WWE UK stuff taped and at Takeover.

It just feels like he's not taking the New Japan job as seriously now that he's got the WWE gig back.

 

[avengers23]

Rusev vs. Ishii.

 

[Fox318]

Ishii should join Suzuki Gun then him and Mino should take the heavyweight tag titles.

Spoiler

They should take the IWGP and Intercontinental titles instead

Well, at least he'll have a veteran backing him up: Lita

 

[Beefy]

JR is making me get bored

Which is weird because I heard either from John amd Wai or Meltz and Alvarez that his and Barnett's commentary for Okada vs Suzuki elevated that match even more.

But yeah they're garbage tonight.

Vince McMahon is unexplainable.

 

[klonere]

Wow that is a dope, dope idea.

It won't happen but goddamn.

 

[Brian_FETO]

Quick, cut to that couple in the crowd drinking

 

[slightconfuse]

Ishii needs a run with the belt

 

[RBH]

Meanwhile, this has been a fun match

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Why is that guy not one of the main talents of WWE is something I'll never understand.

Because his foreign and has a legitimate amazing physique rather than a roided one so Vince doesn't give a shit.

 

[Fox318]

Man what a bump


Ishii is fucking awesome

 

[The Strokes]

Vince McMahon is unexplainable.

Give that guy a manager and let him hold the belt for 10 years.

Anyways, this match is fun so far.

[Brian_FETO]

Nice to see fans getting their money's worth now

Killer adaptation from Naito, turning the botch into a struggle

 

[theaffection]

This match is fucking great

 

[somedevil]

Thats good cause he got 32 women to care about for this tournament.

 

[excelsiorlef]

This is such a funny crowd. Actually booing Naito lol.

 

[klonere]

Jesus Ishii fucking SPIKED him

 

[Fox318]

This is such a funny crowd. Actually booing Naito lol.

He disrespected Ishii

 

[klonere]

W...hat?

Shoot headbutt counter?

 

[excelsiorlef]

He disrespected Ishii

Still wouldn't get him boo'd in most of Japan these days

Not complaining just thought it was funny

 

[Jashobeam]

I hope Naito wins the tournament, throws the US Belt in the dumpster like he promised, and NJPW forget all about this silly US the expansion.

 

[SallyIsNow]

The fabled indie triple spot retry

 

[serenewarfare]

Rough spot.

 

[klonere]

Respectful American crowds actually booing the heels instead of those smarky Japanese ones!

 

[avengers23]

The fabled indie triple spot retry

Rough spot.

That felt more intentional than poor positioning, but I could be generous.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Respectful American crowds actually booing the heels instead of those smarky Japanese ones!

Like I said it's funny.

 

[Fox318]

The fabled indie triple spot retry

in a shoot context it made perfect sense

 

[klonere]

NO MORE FUCKING HEADBUTTS YOU FUCKING IDIOTS

edit: Ishii was clearly pushing Naito back on the DDT fam, are you blind

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Respectful American crowds actually booing the heels instead of those smarky Japanese ones!

Thank fuck this isn't happening at Full Sail. Am I right?

 

[theaffection]

I hope Naito wins the tournament, throws the US Belt in the dumpster like he promised, and NJPW forget all about this silly US the expansion.

Fuck that! Imagine NJPW running the Garden, Staples Center etc?!?!? Go full throttle with this thing and never look back

 

[blackaroni]

Great match!

 

[Evening Musuko]

Man, the Japanese commentary is really elevating this show for me. They even have Japanese on the corners of the screen on the Japanese feed like the shows in Japan.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Well damn.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Told yall Naito would be eliminated first round

 

[slightconfuse]

Oh wow

 

[RecRoulette]

Naito getting fucking wrecked for this show, bless him.

 

[Fox318]

This is a great fucking match

 

[Alex Anderson]

Ishii my fave

 

[gaiadyne]

Guess we're not having the US Title trashed

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

What a match!

 

[EnlightenedMint]

That match was fucking great, those two are so damn good.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

Wow. Wowowow.

 

[Syder]

Woo, Ishii!

 

[H1PSTER]

I guess I've missed Kenny, haven't I?

Love that Ishii won though!

Edit: NOPE I WAS WRONG!
