Jiji Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Night 1 v Suzuki, night 2 v Muto Or do a Choshu-esque gauntlet where he beats 63 year old Kobayashi, Naoki Sano, Ohtani and then loses to Suzuki and Mutoh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tromatagon Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Liger vs Suzuki for the IWGP title Then Suzuki vs Kota Champ has to main both shows for some reason I just want Liger to miss a shoot koppo kick and have Suzuki laugh at him while fucking him up again like the shoot fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgian_Waffle Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) Oyaji's recapping of Sasaki's wild 2004 has me also recalling his tremendous 2005 Carny final the following year against Jamal/Umaga (RIP). Man I'm glad NJPW is making a big deal out of Lyger the Final. They should just let his final match be the main. What if they do Lyger vs the J Cup winner (so long as no one stupid wins the J Cup).

Jiji Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Liger vs. Ospreay as a main event of the dome show would be ambitious. Would need a heck of a co-main I think to sell tickets despite how beloved Liger is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tromatagon Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) You know what's kind of fucked up? Google Liger unmasked. Pictures of Tomonobu Itagaki come up. There's even youtubers making whole videos about it. I started that here as a joke and people believed me. It had to be like ten years ago.

Curt McGirt Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I saw Scott on Action Bronson Watches Ancient Aliens, which for some reason exists on Viceland. Seeing him paunchy and full white is weird. Sabu and RVD were on there too. Sabu threw a chair at a dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 So, this is my first time paying attention to the G1. Is it going to be seen as a shortcoming that Jon Moxley didn’t win the G1? How is that perceived? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) 20 people enter. One person wins. Not winning isn't a shortcoming. That's like saying the 29 other guys in a royal rumble are jabrones. As long as you're not Warlord or Luke you're good. But one year Honma lost every match and was way more over because of it.

Raziel Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Generally anything over 8 points is seen as a good showing. G1 is sold as the most grueling tournament in existence with 9 matches over 20 days that matter and pinning a champ pretty much guarantees a title shot at said title, along with winning gets you a potential Main Event slot at NJPW's Wrestlemania. Not winning isn't bad. This also ended up being one of the more even tournys in a while, where no one sat in the "jobber" role of guaranteed 2 points. Moxley had a pretty good showing since there were people, like me, that doubted his ability to turn out 9 good performances in a style that the crowd liked, and he brought it and brought me over to his side. Hell, Mox grabbed a pin over the #2 Champ and arguable #3 guy in the company during this tourny, so he's all good. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lost of course, but there's no shame in that. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E. Dynamite Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 There's also the fact that booking circumstances (not all of which were political) were never going to let Moxley win the thing. Although I was willing to consider Moxley in the finals (and likely would have enjoyed the match), there was a non-zero chance that Moxley's shtick wouldn't get as over as NJPW would have hoped for - these were and still are his first matches since leaving WWE, and I think there was just too much risk involved to keep somebody else out of the finals for the sake of his name value. I really wanted his match with Juice to go to a draw or a DCO after a big crazy bump. It wouldn't diminish any intrigue for the IWGP US Championship rematch. Juice could claim he kept Moxley out of the finals while still having Moxley finish a clear second in his block. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Liger should challenge whoever is IWGP champ on the second night. 3 hours ago, Belgian_Waffle said: Oyaji's recapping of Sasaki's wild 2004 has me also recalling his tremendous 2005 Carny final the following year against Jamal/Umaga (RIP).

Nice Guy Eddie Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I fell behind on the G1 Climax due to work and never got caught up. Tonight feels like a good night to at least watch White/Ibushi. That's the nice thing about not going to work until 12:30 pm; I don't have to go to bed early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
