Jesus christ this wwe mark is obnoxious, that being said the company did turn a profit with the network this year since they cancelled all their shows. That being said, they also had one of their biggest dropoffs in network subscribers yet and the tv deal is STILL the only thing keeping them in the black. So those ratings will bite them in the ass soon. NJPW is growing in size and popularity because of GOOD BOOKING DECISIONS, but will still probably never beat wwe in ratings.

>Having said that, how many times did Joe get the Clutch in during that match?
3 times. But again, I hear you on the finisher thing. It's just that we all know for a FACT that if Roman was in Joe's position, we would've lost count of the finishers that were in the match.
This is why I jumped on the NJPW bandwagon. It's because when a finisher happens, the majority of the time it means the match is over.
No.70871
>>70846
NJPW isn't afraid to use false finishes especially in the main event, but these mostly occur when a move isn't fully executed but still sorta hits. See naito's matches with an on the ropes destino, which doesn't get the 3 count. Or okada not performing the full rotation rainmaker and only getting 2 in the Omegay matches. False finishes CAN work as long as they aren't overused. Generally speaking if it's in the undercard false finishes shouldn't be done, and if someone hits 2 or more of their finisher then it should be a 3 count.
No.70874
>>70871
Yes, but I'm talking when a finisher hits. Not false finishes. In NJPW, usually when 1 or 2 finishers hit, it's over. I like the way they do the false finisher better since they never really hit it as much as WWE. Also G1 show is in 12 mins.

I think it's important to have more than one type of style on a card. Like ibushi is totally different than ishii, and fale is different from tanahashi. Sabre is again supposed to be something different and it's how those styles mesh that makes stuff interesting. Suzuki is a better example of what ZSJ is supposed to be, and makes his submissions look more physical. I think ZSJ could grow into being something really great, and he has improved even over this G1, his match with ibushi was especially good since high flyers and submission guys work really well together But I get that you just don't like it.

If he loses against either of them his opponent will have 10 points. If he draws with both of them he'll have 10 points. So Yoshi-Hashi can't finish top.

I honestly think it might happen. We don't even need Kenny to lose another match - as long as Evil wins his last two matches and Suzuki beats Okada, then a draw in the Omegay/Okada match will ensure Everything is Evil in the finals.
I really hope he at least wins tomorrow - Naito/Tanahashi and Okada/Omegay being the only matches that matter on the last two days would be boring as fuck.

No.72820
>>72810
What has that even got to do with my complaint? I agree that should be the Tokyo Dome main event and have wanted Naito to win from the start. What I'm annoyed about is that they've already mathematically eliminated everybody other than the guys in the main events and taken a lot of the fun out of this sort of event in the process. I wanted the chance of something surprising happening, even if it didn't. Going into the final shows with two or three matches able to decide the block, or a guy like Evil threatening to slide in and be a surprise winner like Goto did last year would have added a great deal of intrigue and excitement even if none of those things actually happened on the night. As it is, the booking has rendered everything other than two matches nothing but glorified filler and sucked a lot of the life out of the tournament in the process, mostly needlessly.
And for the record, I haven't even watched more than a small handful of WWE shows since 2008, let alone posted in threads about them.

Are these you? Because again, all I was saying is that you seem unreasonably upset over a pretty trivial issue. Also the posting style of a lot of the shitstirring posts in this thread are really similar. especially the overuse of pinktext which is lame and only newfags use.

The WWE doesn't even do large scale round robin tournaments, the issues people have with the booking are specific to this one and not really comparable to anything going on there. You're just looking for any way to talk down New Japan because it's recent growth seems to have triggered you.

>People annoyed that 4/5 matches on both cards are now redundant are dumbass marks
And you've somehow managed to make him look like he has a point.

>laughing at a brand proving itself to have issues when it's endlessly shilled by people genuinely claiming it's perfect and the best wrestling brand ever is being "triggered"
>implying pinktext a.k.a. fagposting is "newfag" instead of fagposting
>NJPW fans themselves point out that there are problems and express disappointment in some booking and the reaction is to call them marks and fags for not pretending everything is perfect
Having the veil lifted and realizing that all brands, even GFW, have pros and cons can be painful. Uncomfortable truths tend to be that way.

>4-5 matches are redundant
After an entire tournament of extremely important matches? With everyone getting a chance to main event, and reaffirming the top guys as the top guys? I don't think there's much of a point in what you're arguing, you're thinking short term not long term. The entire point of the G1 and all the NJPW summer tournaments is to determine the best wrestler in the company, if the 4 main guys you push aren't at the top what's the point? At some point people were gonna be eliminated, and I think of the people you could select from they chose the best options except for tanahashi he's injured and should really be off right now, not potentially competing in a G1 final. Everyone had their chance to shine this year, the matches were almost all fantastic, and there are tons of great title matches that could be made going down the line based off the results of the tournament. So yeah you're acting like a dumbass mark for complaining that the correct long term booking decisions were made.

You're responding in all caps and throwing a hissyfit. It's embarrassing dude, as I said take a break, oh and yeah pinktext is like barely 4 months old and only newfags use it, so fuck off newfag. And no not everything about NJPW is good, nothing is perfect you idiot and no one expects anything to be, but the complaints people are having are extremely marky in nature and don't take long term booking into account.

I still watch WWE and it bottomed out at battleground, slowly been getting better each week, I bet summerslam will be a decent show despite being 6 HOURS. Not having G1 for that week will probably help too since it'll be the only show in town that weekend. It's gonna be real weird not having a G1 show to watch when I get home from work now. It's been kinda overwhelming, but I know I'm gonna miss it when it's over

Especially the sweet ass intro. It's like if the Rumble was over the course of a few weeks. I know I was a bit disappointed with how Evil and Ibushi got eliminated, but that Okada™-Suzuki match showed that it was probably for a good reason. Also, you can see from the thread that I got the great fuzzy feeling when I saw Tanahashi and Naito in the ring again.

there is still no hope for SD's main event scene. it's either Poo Jobber, Shinsuke "no speak engrish and barely put in effort for most matches" Nakamura or Baron Borebin

NJPW has such good video production considering how little they spend on it. I hate to keep ragging on WWE beause we definitely do it too much, but why is it the biggest company in the world uses standard after effects texts and filters for their titantrons and promos, while NJPW gets this? All that aside, after the g1 is over, it'll be the end of this super dense period of great matches, but we're gonna get the LIJ Chaos feud they've been building forever, so the end of this year will be better than most for sure. I am gonna miss shitposting in the threads with everyone though, I feel like with school coming up there'll be less people posting here live. But I hope that's not the case

It's not that we want to keep ragging on WWE it's probably because they keep giving us weird shit that makes no sense. WWE has been sad to have done away with long term booking.
