technically that's a mix of her wwe and real life name mixed into a new wwe name
You can't blame him for doing what's right. Threads should be created on the 1st!
Looks like it.
If I know my OT wouldn't suck, I felt like taking the heat for it, and wasn't at work I'd snipe the OT and make it right now.

TNA or Global Force. Both would likely pay up for forty dates so they have him as a known star for negotiating with TV stations. I'd bet TNA is more likely as who knows when Global Force will actually be making a TV product.

I went to 12, it was pretty fun. I was next to some drunk lady and that was not so fun, but I got to see cool stuff. I know it isn't regarded as one of the best, but it's probably the period where my interest and my ability to buy a ticket merged the most. Plus I like to see guys live at least once. Or did, I don't really care now. But at the time there was:
- Warrior and Jake live, both of which I thought I'd missed the boat on.
- HHH jobbing, which didn't seem like a big deal at the time.
- Diesel giving multiple jackknives to UT
- Bret getting absolutely screwed because RIP Monsoon but there was nothing in there about OT, you tubby fuck
- My dad, who hates wrestling, marking for Roddy Piper
- My mom, who was bummed because Razor wasn't there, marking for Goldust in panties.
Other stuff too, but that's what stands out most. Good times, but it was also only $40 for a ticket and about a 45-minute drive. Nowadays I doubt I could be talked into it again, even if those prices came back. My last live event was a 2006 Raw and I'm ok with that.
Love him or hate him you gotta respect him.
This is who Tanahashi's leaving the company, too? No wonder why Tana shits on Okada's physique.

Man, I bought a ticket for War of the Worlds and ended up selling it for 100 bucks. I had no idea people wanted it that bad.
I do no watch NJPW, but why do you say its piss poor? To me, it looks like their title belt is more appreciated in their universe then the main WWE title in its universe.

Nailed it. This is just a dirtsheet inventing something out of whole cloth and calling it news. Even if they did find out there were plans, what would they do about it? Make everyone that came through the gate pinky swear not to chant for Punk?

true, but it sucks that we couldn't hang out to watch the show
i do appreciate you waiting outside for me though <3
He doesn't like that it's been passed around among the same two people for years until they just gave it to AJ Styles like a month after he showed up in an attempt to reach an international audience when there's other really talented Japanese wrestlers that are waiting in the wings.
And I give AJ full credit, he has gotten a lot better in the recent stuff I watched with him. Dude still shouldn't have gotten the title after a month being there. My problem is that NJPW isn't building anyone new after Okada, and the new guy they just built is someone who only recently showed up because WWE knew he was too old to work for them and TNA wasn't going to pay him. Not only that, but I can't help but think the whole thing is some bullshit marketing by Jarrett to put his own promotion over.
Honestly, Bootaaaay wants to make the Brock/IGF comparison to Shibata, but it's not like AJ isn't not going to use that title in GWF.

Looking at their title reigns count, to me I do not think Tanahashi is not going to win that belt a seventh time? My reasoning is that if he does, he'd be #1 all time in reigns for that belt. And do their creative really want that?

Will GWF will even be a running promotion by the time AJ drops the belt? Which, by my reckoning, will be at Wrestle Kingdom - Styles is only on a year's contract and, unless he re-signs, he'll be gone after Invasion Attack. My money's on AJ vs Okada IV at Wrestle Kingdom, Okada wins, beats AJ in the rematch at New Beginning or Invasion Attack to end their series Okada 3 ~ Styles 2.
Also, I'd agree they really need someone from Okada's generation to rival him - Shibata and Naito would be good bets to win the belt sometime in 2015, but they're both a fair bit older than Okada who, like him or not, is the proven young draw of the company. You can argue that's because others haven't been given the same chances as him, but then when Naito got his chance he managed to turn some of the audience (and all of Osaka) against him. Make no mistake, though, they're putting A LOT of stock in Okada - I foresee him feuding with Shibata and Nakamura being very good for business. It would be nice to have someone younger in the wings, though...however, I feel like people are too quickly discounting the current crop of young lions. Takahashi & Watanabe might not be big names now, but neither was Okada before he returned from his learning excursion.
I doubt we'll ever see a lengthy Tanahashi title reign again, but I could easily see him getting a seventh run with the belt - he already beat Nagata's record for number of defences, just Fujinami's record number of reigns and Mutoh's combined days as champion left for him to beat.

If GWF isn't running a ton by 2015, AJ will probably stay with New Japan. It's worked out really well for both parties there.
Also, I'd like to point out that in terms of OT names, I'm clearly the best at it. I even named Japan-GAF's OT, for crying out loud!

That hijack shit was cringe-worthy. People should just vote with their wallets if they want to effect change. Support your local indie.
Agreed. Also, there was talk of him feuding with Tanahashi for the IC title before he debuted, which I wouldn't be at all averse to seeing.

I'm fine with more AJ in Japan in any capacity. Guy's easily my Wrestler of the Year. His work this year has been on the next level.

So, uh...Global Force Wrestling seems to have a timeslot for their first PPV.
It's 1/4/15. AKA The day of the New Japan Tokyo Dome show.
Mike Johnson being a fucking hack aside, it looks like they're either doing a doubleheader with NJPW, or they are going to show the New Japan show on PPV here, but branded under Global Force Wrestling.

Confusing kayfabe and real life? I'd expect that from Heavy, not you.
Hijack Raw pretty much was the genesis for Meta-HHH vs Daniel Bryan.
Liar.
Well, Meltzer reported that ages ago that GFW was going to try and get the Tokyo Dome show on regular PPV (tape delay) with English commentary, so yeah.

I have a fear of poo compared to my classmates. I just find it so gross and the fact that I'm going to be cleaning up tons of it from incontinent patients has me scared. So you know what I did? I told my clinical instructor to just give me a bed bath/incontinent patient next Monday (clinical is every Monday) because I gotta get over it somehow so I'm going in head first right away.
