  1. This one hurts. Vader was my favorite during my teenage years, and he got me to like Sting because of how Sting was able to hang with him. I'd say in terms of wrestler deaths that hurt me the most- Eddie comes first because he was so young, but this comes right after Eddie.
  2. EVIL beat Okada last year, that might have been part of it. He has some credibility, and he is a good wrestler, though he does come off as "just a guy" to me, whereas Sanada comes off as something more. Then again I enjoy Sanada more than Naito.
  3. I remember some Bret/Booker T matches. Bret thought the matches were good. Please don't make the argument that Booker T was not better than Sid.
  4. If it's an open challenge, it might be something really goofy given the event. CEO is goofy in the best ways. They might bring in Ken the Box as Mokujin.
  5. Could you see Omega being a New Japan Dad in 7-8 years?
  6. https://ceogaming.org/ceoxnjpw-june-29th-match-card-livestream-and-more/ Golden Lovers vs Naito/Hiromu Jeff Cobb vs Chase Owens Roppongi 3K vs Dragon Lee/Taguchi GoD vs Juice/Finlay Liger vs Rocky Romero Wish we were getting some Suzuki-Gun, but happy to be hitting this.
  7. Xavier's UUDD stuff keeps him somewhat credible, and overall the New Day is at the equivalent spots of the Bucks in NJPW. If the New Day ended up in NJPW en masse- I'd see Kofi and Xavier being in the tag division with Big E around ZSJ/Ishii-level in terms of where they'd be placed. If they threw ACH into the New Day you might see Xavier as a junior.
  8. Ibushi was also in the G1 last year I think, and you forgot Jay White. Also is Baretta out due to injury- wasn't he in the G1 last year as well?
  9. Now I want to see NBA played with roller derby rules.
  10. Cobb I believe was taking bookings during G1, but he is booked for the CEO show in Orlando. My guess is they still like Cobb but have nothing for him right now.
  11. Only saw the main event, and I missed the first 2-3 mins of it, but right now my hot take is that it's the best 2/3 falls title match I've ever seen, surpassing Flair/Steamboat, with equal quality wrestling, and better emotion/story. I got the feels watching it, which is very, very rare for this bitter old man.
  12. If I was running things, I'd have a stip that said if the secondary belt holder managed to hold it x days and make x credible defenses, they automatically get a title shot within x time.
  13. LU did this with their gift of the gods championship. You have to give 1 weeks notice to Dario (in order to "promote" the match properly) and the added stipulation of it being a championship you had to defend.
  14. I don't think there's a lot of national money an in super-indie promotion. At least not yet. There's no way possible that the All In roster could compete with WWE at all from scratch. It could surpass ROH and Impact easily, especially if you fleshed it out with a lot of LU folks. Also you'd probably have to keep good terms with NJPW and probably CMLL. It would be a process- though I think if anyone could pull it off- it would be Cody. Would be a better waste of his money than Clash of Clans.
  15. It's a Liger/Tana/Marty 3-way I think.
  16. Ishimori deserves better than the Bone Soldier gimmick. I don't think he fits Bullet Club at all. Also ACH had a moment in the undercard tags.
  17. I'm wondering what comes after this. How many of these shows a year could they do? Could they even get the talent they had, and get a promotion out of it if they really wanted to take a risk/be ambitious.
  18. Looks like mask vs mask is gonna happen at some point.
  19. Marty's shtick is annoying, but it's over. Sabre's glass jaw as mentioned above is why I could buy Okada winning after all the armwork. Okada's had some really good matches with the midcarders like Sabre and Sanada lately. Sabre would be well suited as a tag guy in NJPW if Suzuki-gun didn't have KES.
  20. There are so many guys who could be face of the Division that Despy gets lost in the shuffle behind Osprey, Kushida, and Hiromu , and the Japanese crowds love the Villain shtick so Marty gets his shots ahead of Despy as well. Taichi going heavy was the best thing ever to happen to Despy.
  21. The FGC is the pro-wrestling of E-sports. (seriously, and Kenny/Xavier has little to do with it)
  22. Hiromu vs Despy is a must-watch and MOTY candidate for NJPW this year. Great hatefest.
  23. I always felt Truth Martini was ok, good by today's meager manager standards.
  24. I still remember Sid's Crippler Crossface.
  25. Marty at least had a good rant at the press conference, and Hiromu's scrapbook was hilarious.
