Archibald Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 First major show after NJPW decides to have more matches on shows: Fujita/Oiwa vs Kanemaru/DOUKI TigerMask/Honma/Makabe vs Gedo/Jado/Tanga Wato/Taguchi/Nagata vs Hiromu/Bushi/Sanada Yoshi/Goto/Ishii vs Sho/Yujiro/Evil for trios titles Yano vs O-Khan for KOPW thing Eagles vs Desperado for Junior title Tanahashi vs KENTA for USA title Okada vs Tama for briefcase Shingo vs ZSJ for world heavyweight title We'll get three Road To shows streamed, two of them have elimination main events, while last one (10/26) has Eagles/TigerMask vs Desperado/Kanemaru for jr. tag titles. And Henare is back. I don't know, I could have lived without these three undercard tags. Only the one with young lions makes sense to me. To me good thing about "less matches" cards were that lots of fat was cut. If it was me I'd just move trios title match to one of the Road To shows that has elimination match for main event and drop second and third matches entirely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I'd love Zack Sabre Jr to win the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship here but he won't. I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archibald Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 Surprisingly Desperado/Kanemaru lost Jr. tag titles to TigerMask/Eagles. One last run for Tiger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horangi Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Robbie 2 Belts! So happy for him, an all-round top bloke who definitely deserves it. I'm sure it means he's dropping to Despe at Power Struggle though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 The KOPW match for Power Struggle will be Amateur Wrestling match. Evil wants to remove Chaos, he thinks the faction is like rotten oranges nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 House of Torture is such a fitting name with EVIL and Yujiro Takahashi in it. Oof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 https://www.njpw1972.com/107842 "ZSJ: It’s ridiculous, all these kids with their toys. At this rate, Tanahashi could show up with the old U-30 belt, call it the ‘Over 40’s’ belt. Why not bring them all back? But whether it’s a new title, or whether the fans like it or not, the IWGP World Heavyweight title is the top title in New Japan, Shingo is its rightful holder. So he’s who I’m aiming at." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Reading the results: Spoiler Zack Sabre Jr predictably lost in challenging for Shingo Takagi's IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. Wish the result went differently. EVIL/Yujiro Takahashi/SHO, The House of Torture are the new NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Champions. Yeah, it'll be a torture to watch them. Yeesh at that result. Sucks Hiroshi Tanahashi has dropped the NJPW United States Championship soon after winning it. Same happened with him and the NEVER Openweight Championship this year.

dragonzombie Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Spoiler All good results. I don't think they want Tana to do many defenses, to preserve him for longer. Shingo winning again is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Spoiler Hope those ideas are better than the KOPW Trophy. Great seeing the IWGP Heavyweight Championship V4 back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
