Kang Posted October 23, 2022 Author Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) AJPW Spoiler Suwama and Kono won the World tags. I don't think they ever will replace those designs, the beat up Triple Crown now kinda matches those titles nowadays. Minoru was banished from VM, he hesitated to intervene in the World tag match after losing his Junior Title shot. Taru banished him, and dissed Minoru as GLEAT guy. Suwama said, "Minoru, go to hell". The Japanese wiki fixed the units page So AJPW Army, VM, GOA, Nextream, Evolution. Edited October 24, 2022 by Kevin Wilson quick fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 At first glance from the 6 on 6 from last night, Kingston and White match up pretty well. It was a fun one. I need to go back and find that Moxley vs Lawlor match from earlier this year now too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) I get the notion that Robinson is a better face but he very much comes off as a guy making overwrought mannerisms pretending to be a pro wrestling as a heel. On the other hand, there's maybe nothing in 2022 wrestling better than Eddie Kingston fighting off two guys with chops on a bad leg, right?

Kang Posted October 30, 2022 Author Share Posted October 30, 2022 We have two months left of this year and Jan and Feb for anymore remaining Muto/Muta matches. I hope we get some sort of Muto vs Tanahashi match for the last time in NJPW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted October 30, 2022 Author Share Posted October 30, 2022 Have to see in the future if Jake Lee will drop the now secondary demoted Ace position, I haven't checked if he even calling himself one of the Aces anymore. I think Suwama has the whole book now. Lot of the previous years (after Jun) stuff for AJPW have been dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Shinsuke Nakamura spoke with Tokyo Sports, as did Pro Wrestling NOAH, regarding the Great Muta vs. Nakamura match on 1/1 at Budokan Hall that was announced yesterday. Nakamura pushed heavily for it. NOAH had the idea as soon as they announced the Keiji Muto retirement series in June. WWE at first turned down the idea but after Vince McMahon left the company, NOAH tried again to put the match together. WWE only agreed to allowing the match on Wednesday. Nakamura referred to it as "What is it? A dream? An illusion? It's unmistakable, it's reality." In Tokyo Sports, he said, "It can only be called a miracle. I opened a door that no one could break in. Hahaha...it's a real 'Forbidden Door'." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
