Kang Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) NOAH doesn't make those roster graphs anymore. Perros was done away with sometime ago. And M's alliance suspended activities as a unit months ago. Only NOAH army, Kongoh, Sugiura Army, STINGER exist right now. Of course there freelancer and other guys from other companies. Sometimes Noah Junior Army and rookies may get separated groupings blocks. Funky Express exists. But not as a unit, lower than 3 men grouped together. Kongoh is just assholes. Masakatsu Funaki is a face. The current roster page below counting everyone they currently use and will use and used briefly these past few months https://www.noah.co.jp/profile/ Some players will be deleted from the page later.

matwarz Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Tremendously laid out main event, way better than it had any right to be. Call backs, nostalgia, violence and a super fun time all round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kang Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 8433 fans for Muta's last show. The canvas mat was white without the green barriers and with the words. With unique aprons. Might go nowhere, but NOAH could create the GHC Women title. Sumire and Jungle Kyona think it would be a good idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) Watched some of this show. Basically skipped onto the main event. Very entertaining retirement match. Nowhere near as good as the greatest retirement match ever. That being Kenta Kobashi’s. That hit all the right spots, between the emotional journey of Kobashi’s cancer recovery, Misawa’s death, and the feeling at one point the same faith might befall Kobashi if he didn’t retire, but also looking back it felt like one last hurrah of King’s Road bridging from All Japan to NOAH. This one felt a lot more elaborate, and kinda weird. For one this is Great Muta’s retirement match in Pro Wrestling NOAH. I’m guessing that’s because Mutoh has some sort of creative stake in the promotion now, so he wants the company’s label on it. Still extremely weird, but skipping around the show this is definitely not Misawa’s baby anymore. The titles for each match tipped me off to that. I mean I noticed the changes last year on my brief dip into the company. This felt way more noticeable . It’s definitely visually appealing. I’d even say they feel even more big time than New Japan. But here’s the thing, something just feels temporary about this NOAH. It was the same with Wrestle-1. Mutoh just kinda sucks when booking way beyond his generation, and the best he ever got was All Japan when him, and the 90’s guys weren’t worn to the bone. On the bright side, these NJPW Vs. NOAH shows have gotten a lot of buzz. Let’s see if they can grip people past the visuals, headline grabbing retirement shows, and cross promotion warfare. Because we know that never lasts. What holds fans are the future acts that feel fresh, but give you a sense of seeing a turning point. Funny that Okada may be the catalyst of great turning points for two decades(Maybe three if you count Sugiura spiking him). From him beating Tanahashi the first time, and now Kaito with that kick on the noggin. A kick that I’m definitely sure Okada wasn’t aware was coming. Either that or he’s the greatest actor when receiving shoot kicks to the face. The stuff with the match breaking down was definitely planned though. I just don’t think Okada was expecting the placement of that kick to be so high, and precise. That was incredible stuff. I’m just not a total believer in Kaito recreating that feeling four, or five times a year, and that’s what is holding me back. It just doesn’t help that he doesn’t have a persona yet whatsoever. You actually need that to be a big star, not just colorful outfits, and big coats. That works for boxers, but not wrestlers.

Ace Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Muta looks to have tweaked his hammy at some point in the match. He motioned it to Sting afterwards and was in a wheelchair backstage for his post-match promo. I find it amusing that kayfabe-wise, Muta speaks English. The one point I spoke to him outside of gimmick, he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I always found it funny for that great tag match with Mutoh and Chono vs Hase and Saski, Mutoh came to the ring wearing a Cornell T shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I LOVED how much fan-service the main event gave, from the Great Kabuki to Sting's entrance beginning with his classic 89-92 WCW entrance theme. I was not expecting a death bump from Hakushi in 2023 either. I wasn't familiar with much of NOAH's roster aside from the Kaito/Kenou championship rivalry prior to these recent shows but I am DIGGING and looking forward to seeing more from: Amakusa, Maya Kitamiya, and Inamura. I am definitely keeping the wrestleUNIVERSE sub after the wave of Muta/Mutoh shows complete. And seeing the few minutes of Sting and Hakushi together makes me pine for the alternate universe where Hakushi goes to WCW in 96 and the two of them have an AMAZING 7-minute WCW Worldwide main event in that pre-Crow Sting window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Meltzer: As of last night, the Okada-Kiyomiya angle, which builds to the 2/21 show at the Tokyo Dome had more than 2.5 million views which is a good number for a WWE angle, a great number for an AEW angle and an unbelievable number for a Japanese angle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
