i watched the post match stuff as it was everywhere
match looked wild, especially given that despy's match was ripped off

Potential MOTY right here. Sunday afternoon at 11:30am JST which is 7:30pm PST Sat night. Wrestle Universe has a free 2 week trial if you start a new account, but it's worth the 900 yen ($6 now lol)

i still haven't signed up to wrestle universe.. ahahha

i've cut njpwworld and wont sub till maybe world tag league, and definitely will for wrestle kingdom season(which i will likely be going)

but man aew pulled out a great show for grand slam
EVERYBODY LOVES THE ACCLAIMED haha

Saraya, fka Paige.. i hope TK got his team to actually make sure she is cleared. but also, hoping TK dont fuck this up. but im not very optimistic about that hahah

Grab that 2 week trial and watch this match on Sunday!

Saraya yeah I don't think she was ever remarkable, she stood out because she was unique when WWE was in full bimbo mode still. She definitely has star power and a following, but I have no recollection if she's actually any good.

Doctors clear a lot of wrestlers WWE wouldn't have used if not for competition. They had no interest in Edge until he came to them with AEW's offer. They were never going to let Danielson wrestle again until he started talking about working with NJPW. So them not clearing Paige doesn't say much either way. They might not be interested for other reasons.

Paige has a lot of baggage
namely the line of questionable dudes who are either. convicted murdered, accused of sexually assualting a minor

etc..

either way, as some on SC has said, she "started" the whole nxt women invading wwe thing. lets hope she can do this for aew cuz it desperately needs something fresh.

guess the brits are happy to be going home haha

BRUV

wrestle kingdom main event is set, Okada vs Jay White,
also announced.. IWGP Women's Champion will be defended at Wrestle Kingdom

As a Stardom fan I have pretty much zero interest in the IWGP belt... But it's cool that they'll be at WK for sure! Most likely will be Mayu vs Kairi which should be GREAT

One of the reasons why i want to go to wrestle kingdom, see Kairi wrestle at a large event. Her Wrestlemania moment was robbed!

Still on the fence about WK17 haha.
so.. i'll blame CM PUNK

lol

I want to go to WK but tickets are too damn expensive, I probably can't go until after CNY FeelsBadMan

I won't feel too bad about missing it unless they announce cheering is allowed..

hope hangman makes a quick recovery.

but that MJF promo.. dude does it better than anyone else

Yeah that KO was scary, but sounds like it was a flash KO more than anything. Sounds like he'll be fine. In years past they probably would have let him come back to consciousness and eventually continue the match. They did a good job this time, stopping immediately in case it was really bad like a broken neck.

only dreaming, but now that Nakamura gets to do the NOAH show... why not have Nakamura go celebrate 50years of NJPW for a match with Tanahashi at WK...

I think if they announce this in the next two weeks or so, i'll just jump at them. International tickets are available now too so easier to get instead of going thru a service.

NJPW won't work with WWE, no way. I don't even know if Anderson will be able to go there to drop his title. Maybe he retires and does a quick stop for a goodbye there before retiring for good.

the thing is they haven't stripped Karl of the NEVER title yet
Instead, Hikuleo vs Yujiro Takahashi is scheduled for the november show.

Yeah that's really weird

Like it's Karl Anderson. Who cares? Just strip him of the title.

I haven't sen the match yet but there's a lot of hype for Logan Paul

They got this crazy shot holding his phone during a frog splash onto a table, but he completely destroyed his knee doing it, and will be out 9-12 months

Logan's good
wrestling isn't fake, just predetermined
gotta work at the craft of professional wrestling

his frog splash is impressive, his buckshot lariot looks much better than CM skunks attempt

They definitely have him working a specific match laid out to make him look good... Like if you were to categorize different aspects, he's a 10/10 in athleticism but the rest not so much. I'm not a fan of Phil Brooks the person, but I'd watch a CM Punk match 10 times out of 10 more than a Logan Paul match.

Absolutely the perfect type of wrestler for 2020's WWE though. The other brother should get into it too

the US tour package for WK17 is highway robbery lol
https://www.njpw1972.com/134708

$1275-$2076 USD
mind you, that hotel by the dome is roughly $140 a night.

Im 90% certain im heading to Wrestle Kingdom. Trying to avoid buying tickets directly from them as i don't want to be put in the gaijin section. Some horror stories on reddit about this lol.

I don't think I can go, flights are too expensive still. Might go after CNY instead. There will always be plenty of wrestling to see :D

IT'S OFFICIAL

good stuff!!

full day of rasslin

That hammer is the plot device for this Elite vs Death Triangle series.
KNOCK ON WOOD kenny doesn't get hurt

I want a healthy kenny vs a healthy and well rest ospreay.
These two might very well try to top Okada vs Kenny from 2018.

Mayu vs Kairi was fantastic. The perfect showcase for STARDOM to the world.

Wrestle Kingdom is going to be fantastic


only thing it needs is to let the fans cheer again.
considering the reaction Kenny's Video got in Ariake last night. the Japanese fans are really excited
