Belgian_Waffle Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Nomura pinned Miyahara again today in a six man. Dunno if this means he's winning the Cup or just getting a title shot before the tournament or if it's just AJPW randomly beating Miyahara. I feel like Nomura could credibly hold the belt now in any case. Feud with Jake Lee while the new crop of young guys develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he beats him, it better be with something better than a FU/Attitude Adjustment. Fun match regardless. Some of the elbow/forearm strike counters were lovely looking by Nomura. To the point where I wouldn’t mind if he starts jacking Misawa’s elbow based offense, and makes it his own.

Curt McGirt Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 You've got to be kidding me. There is seriously a guy who wrestles in all that makeup? Do they just airbrush him before every match? How long has this idea been around? So many questions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Does anybody know who’s in the suit? I assume it’s one of the gaijin heavy’s under the makeup. Edited August 20, 2019 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sublime Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I think people were signing longer than one year deals but I don't think they were all five year. I think Juice and Rocky were reported as signing 3 year deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maciej Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I watched the Okabayashi/Nomura BJW title match from 7/21 that people have been hyping and it really is very good. Okabayashi has had a masterpiece of a match built around his arm before, a few years ago against Suzuki, and he's really great at working basically without it until the emotion of the match dictates that it's worth the risk to use it. The confidence Nomura shows throughout the match, especially in the strike exchanges, makes him super fun to cheer for. After watching a ton of the G1 (which I very much enjoyed), it was a really nice change of pace to watch a big match built more around hard hitting, emotion, and selling without the race to the finisher through a million reversals kinda style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archibald Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 So from what I gather Elgin/Sekimoto was a big success for BJW. Elgin was very over and I think that it is a safe bet that he is going to get more bookings either from BJW or other companies in Japan. I imagine that this is going to be the final nail for NJPW/AEW partnership that never was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
