He gets heat. You need people like that.
He will never be a top star, but he is an entertaining heel in midcard. And he gets babyfaces over.
I wish I were in NJPW and Naito liked me
Name one wrestler who has come out of a feud with Taichi "more over". Goto's momentum got harmed when he fucking lost to him and he gained nothing back from beating him.
pretty sure the aim of that result was to elevate taichi, not goto
>That BOSJ match where Liger went full Kishin mode and fucking rekt him
anyone think yoshida is going to join suzuki-gun to replace iizuka?
Actually the best Liger match in 10 years right here.
based Taicherz carrying grandpa liger
I like his gimmick.
i like taichi because he has the GOAT theme and the GOAT valet
He work a lot of smarks, included Dave Metzler, into shoot, so he is cool.
Nah senpai, Based Lord Taichi gets pushed because he's the one that's eventually gonna give the boot to Suzuki and lead Taichi Gun to glory against the LIJ and Bullet Club shitters
also based filter going over me clean
This guy is one of the best heels in recent memory.
Is he a member of the Ultra Lux White Glove Society
Does he talk shit to the crowd? I always hear how he's not liked in Japan, but don't know why since I don't speak Japanese
i get the sense that they enjoy his heel antics. they enjoy booing him. in fact suzuki gun as a whole, i feel, are more liked by the crowd now, whereas bullet club have taken over the pure asshole heel spot.
taichi is based
his gimmick is based
his valet is based
his teacher is ESPECIALLY based
Taichi was getting constant Kaere chants in 2017, through late 2017-2018 the crowd warmed up to him because he just never changed from his shitheel babby cheating and now hes ironically over with the crowd.
Sounds like ding-dong diddly good reasons to me
Kaere chants as in they were chanting 'taichi wa kaere' which translates to taichi go home but kaere is a very blunt way of saying it. So its more like 'taichi fuck off'.
based women bitches where they belong in bikinis at the sidelines all hail new japan they get it
Naito. People went crazy for his match with Naito.
Back when I gave up on NJPW because it became PWG Japan the only act I still enjoyed was the TAKA and Taichi tag team which was absolutely based, but the jr tag division was just them and 3 teams having the same match every show - Young Bucks, ReDragon and Forever Hooligans. Everything else in NJPW was trash.
Now Taichi is still the only based worker in NJPW and all of the nujapanlets that found out about the company through WWE commentary and base their enjoyment of the shows on Meltzer's magic stars hate him because the autism bandwagon demands it, which makes based Taichi even more based.
Based Naito gets Taichi and himself more over every time they have a match, at taka taichi mania there was a momente where Taichi fans outchanted Naito in a spot, true KINO
Taichi has lots of smark fans and the vast majority have gender pronouns in their twitter bio.
Worked
Naito went from the most popular wrestler in Japan 2 years straight to barely making the top 10.
Definitely /ourguy/
>has been hanging around midcarders for a year and 3 months save for the occacional Jericho
The Jericho feud gave him new life. Just keep him away from Minoru Suzuki.
I just subbed to NJPW World, are the Honour Rising shows worth watching?
Skip anything involving any member of Kingdom. Rest of the shows are fun.
>I always hear how he's not liked in Japan, but don't know why
So a few years back Taichi was caught in an extramarital affair. Normally what happens is the person caught is supposed to apologize publicly for their shameful actions, do some kind of penance like shave their head or forego their salary for a year, basically something to show that they admit they fucked up and accept the consequences of their fuckups. Not only did Taichi got a two-month suspension, then turned his affair into the current wannabe-playboy gimmick he has now in order to get heat. Kind of like Edge but without the charisma.
I fucking hated him for a long time.
The past few months or so, he's really been growing on me... he's an idiot, but I'm starting to get the appeal beyond Miho Abe being there.
A fellow Kawadachad I see.
