Not really? Lots of plastic swords and cheesy cgi effects and standard tokusatsu chest sparks 

That stinks, cuz I was hoping for Goto busting out a GTR in the outfit.

Goto actually wins fights in it, it's weird

This made me chuckle. Cheers. Sucks Hirooki Goto never won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. Goto will never hold a world title in NJPW. Least Lex Luger eventually won the big one in WCW.

REALXTIME was fuckin fantastic and I wish ZERO ONE had ended there. Goto was just a henchie in it and not the Big Bad and even then he was in it sparingly

There was a time, maybe 2010-2012ish when Goto was one of my favorite wrestlers. I still love the dude but he's such a choke artist that it got hard to get behind the guy any time he was in a title match. Lex Luger is a good comparison but like you said Lex eventually won the big one. I think it was when he joined Chaos and had the weird zombie Jinsei Shinzaki look that I finally just gave up on the dude being anything more than a JTTS/Gatekeeper.

Bret's the best.

challenge to various indy workers to try that sort of flip into a German Suplex instead of a backdrop (make sure you don't spike your opponent in the process)

Agreed with all you say, my friend. Cheers!
