Seemed like a fast count to me, bros.

BASED SANADA

Thank God that shit is over

Sanada is the man

Fucking finally

>lelele fuck flippy shit contrarians
>ZSJ does zero (cero) flippy spots
>HURRR DURR BORING
You faggots are like women that don’t know what they want, no wonder you’re all virgins

>copies the exact finish from their last G1 match and kills ZSJ’s gimmick in the process

This ref has been counting fast for some reason

Finally, we'll get some real food

Pretty fun match.
Never been the biggest fan of that match up
Now it's time for kino

Pretty solid match,nothing out of the ordinary

Why Zack very rarely defeated with finishers? When he lose, its always through surprised pins like that

I WAS HAPPY IN THE HAZE OF THE G1

KENTA NEXT NIGGAS

KENTA VS IBUSHI GET HYPE

No don't end it yet, I'm still outside
The two remaining matches are actually good fuuuuuuiuick

that match was great, what were you guys watching

rent free

All u edrones who bitch about 'boring wrestling' cream yer jeans when Shane beats Seff to unify the belts at Survivor Series and buries the company forever.

Seems like a lot of you disliked that match. I thought it was pretty good

>Kenta vs Ibushi
oh shit lads

>those empty seats

wtf is that Kairi Sane with the towel

Nice false dichotomy champ

No they aren’t

They've been showing them for the entire show, E drone. If anything they're not doing enough to hide them.

The problem with ZSJ is that he's one dimensional,its either 15+ minutes catch wrestling or nothing.

There's always a certain percent of the population that's permanently butt blasted no matter what.

ZSJ is the only skinny dude that get a pass because is necesary part of his gimmick. He is based, and so is Sanada. Gonna miss the mohicano tho

if ZSJ didn't looked like a fucking holohoax survivor he's submission specialist gimmick would actually work, instead he looks like a fucking fag and I can't buy into him submitting anyone over 100 pounds

this whole "show" has been trash

So he has an excuse why they don’t deserve the belt maybe? Because it was a fluke pin? I dunno

red shoes with the pop

look at the left

>red shoes gets a monster pop
based crowd desu

Beating him the normal way doesn't count, you have to beat him at his own game

Kenter better still be able to go and prove the E-drones wrong.

Wonder if they'll actually gift a win to fat out of shape kenta. That would be pathetic.

It was really great.

I want SANADA to win this G1 bros

It's not even at the sides. There are entire rows of the lower bowl dead center that look abandoned lol

LOOK IN MY EYES
WHAT DO YOU SEE
RELEASED EARLY FROM NXT

Alright time to do or die
will kenta be based?

Why does the fag at totanon always puts cringe inducing k-pop?

Better than the last AEW show or whatever the WWE shit out this year by far and its not even over.

ZSJ is great but really needs to cut his “submissions” by like half at least, just keep the at least semi realistic ones.

hard cam side

.t doesn't understand how submissions work

>shirt says Takeover

BASED

is KENTA going to be Ibushi’s only loss?
he is def losing tonight, they gotta make KENTA look good in his debut
Ibushi clean sweeps after this?

No they aren’t you retard
empty seats aren't a big deal in japan

MY DICK IS READY FOR THIS MATCH

>ZSJ is great
Nope

>weight matters when submitting
Red Sheos fucking sucks

I'm very dissapointed his entrance wasn't Shibata pointing at the stage for 10 minutes

Bros I like both these guys, who do I choose?

Why don't people move to a better seat? There's plenty of good ones open.

GOLDEN STARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

what does that mean?

Kenta
So he can prove E-drones wrong and make Puro tranny twitter mad

Ibushi always

>those thicc ass white chicks on the front corner

Very nice

Ibushi is suffering at least two defeats. I'm betting one of them is against Tanahashi again.

They're either vaping or jerking off and don't want to be seen

Kota is going over brother

This

So that his vegan faggot lanklet ass doesn't get exposed. The dude weighs 160 pounds at best. If he was taking actual offense from actual wrestlers, it would be blisteringly obvious that he doesn't belong.

Manage to get a flabbier guy than zsj. Puke.

That scar is fuckhuge

FUCKING BASED

Kota I don't lift weights Ibushi looking real jakked

What injury will Hideo Itami come down with in this match?

Is this going to be the best match of the night?

Nah, it's going to be an important part of his story that he overcomes Tana

Don't fuck this up bro

I honestly can't tell, surprise is the main element with this fight I think.

Broken neck

Ah shit, crowd is getting bad.

>Kenta gonna be able to use the GTS again
mmm based

FUCK OFF AMERICA WITH YOUR SHITTY MEME CHANTS

>bushi Kenta doing the kickboxing moves
Beautiful

You kikku me? I kikku you

Grow a neck

KENTA broke his jaw with one slap from Ibushi

Meme chants are based

How long until KENTA awakens Ibushi dark side?

Based Americans working this bongoloid zsj mark into a fucking shoot

one might say that it would be important enough to blow it off at Wrestle Kingdom instead of in the middle of the G1

Ibushi taking bumps all over his neck this dude is determined to become a paraplegic within the year

Kenta got a bit of a GUT on him

Kenta wasn't able to make it in the big leagues

>boomer KENTA
based

I would do anything to rub down nubile Ibushi with delicious berry flavored massage oil while fingering and sniffing his butthole gingerly.

wtf why am i getting an area error???

But he's wrestling in the big leagues right this second, user.

his gimmick is he kicks you really hard

He returned to the big league after staying in the lower league's lower league.

sorry i cannot unsee that one

KENTA has been surprisingly good

Hi Kenny, enjoying those hotdogs?

remember to play chinese chess to enrich yourself mentally while watching

>WWE comeback sequence
cringe

took me a bit to notice it

this match is a disappointment

lmao why are you just tuning in now user
watch it on AXS, you can't watch it live in burgerland

KENTA is looking T H I C C

Fuck this then I'll just watch it later

KENTA looks like shit APOLOGIZE THOSE WHO SAID HE HAS LOST IT

This is pretty boring and Ibushi is trying his best to carry it

Let's see some fucking sawdust

rusty but he's doing great

WWE wrestlers suck.

Crowd is turning shit. Is it Elite fans shitchanting because Ibushi is in the match? Might have to stop watching, guys.

Did Ibushi ever successfully complete that rope german suplex?

I FUCKING TOLD YOU GUYS KENTA IS FINISHED ITS NOT A WWE THING HIS INJURED ARM FUCKED HIM FOREVER

If this show is any indication A block is surprisingly really gonna suck this year.

they're shitchanting because the match is shit

Im afraid Ibushi fucked his ankle

rip ibushi

god i hope not

If he didn't shoot fuck it up he's suddenly become amazing at selling

F for Ibushi's ankle

yeah him and Naito and kenny come to mind

cope

Attached: tumblr_pgot95lGDp1wpza6e_540.jpg (540x720, 71K)

what if after the match kenta got on the mic and came out as gay and kissed

yeah loads of times

Certainly looks like he's having alot of trouble putting any weight on it

Yeah you can see him babying the ankle on the last ride

>match was meant to build up to the GTS
>ibushi gets injured on purpose to not take it

>he's suddenly become amazing at selling
>suddenly
Ibushi works people into thinking he's injured literally every match
he's the best seller in the company

man ibushi's p-bomb is a thing of beauty

this is not All Elite Wrestling

>running through his soulless spots
Suddenly flashbacks of 2013 KENTA comes rushing back

>KENTA the one to actually injure the immortal Ibushi
The absolute irony

Why is this Kenta guy trying to use CM Punk's finisher?

They work very well with each other as suspected

>kenta keeps using his bro dbry's moves
noice

looks like a sprained ankle to me, but given that he performed a powerbomb I don't think it's legit
though if he shoot fucked up his ankle for this garbage match I'll be pissed

sigh

Who?

HAHH
HAHHHHH
HAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Kenta is finished what a fucking shitter ruining opening night of G1 how dare he

Beautiful masochist Ibushi is my favorite one

FIGHTING SPIRITU

>Managed to have a boring match with IBUSHI of all people
How does he do it

>that go to sleep
J U S T

Cringe

im enjoying this :)

I ELBOWA YOU YOU ELBOWA ME

lads is Ibushi the achievable natty?

who won?

KENTA is the new 3 star general HOLY SHIT

yikes

That finisher looked quite weak,very nice match though.

Shit finish

eh

*Knees your armpits in your path*

that was a fun match.

AND THE CROWD GOES MILD

Another based match, NJPW will never be beaten for match quality.

that move is illegal

That was a CM Punk-tier GTS. Honestly, it was pretty much what I expected, but I'm still disappointed.

That GTS was so shit it looked like Child Molester Puke's version

Did Kenta really just botch his own finisher

>rght to the head
>Clearly wasn't

Fucking rocky

was he worth the hype?

>Jobushi

Ok, I really thought Ibushi would win this one, hmmm.

A VISCIOUS KNEE TO THE shoulder

Well that was disappointing

it was allwyas to the stomach from KENTA

>that soulless logo

wrestling too formulaic
wish shoot style wasn't dead

Literally looked like Ibushi blocked it with his armpits, would have been a neat counter.

What is he supposed to say? A knee right to the armpit of Ibushi who pretends it was a direct hit in order to keep kayfabe?

Only with a pure heart and pure autism

Thank you KENTA for not having it anymore so maybe now i dont have to watch a month of who japan

The place that this shitter is from? No thanks.

a fun 4 star match

What the hell is Hideo Itami doing in the Nip Zone?

I didn’t think so, have to make Kenta look good in his first match.

>okada vs ace is getting a full hour to themselves
based

that was barely 3

This

that was fine, but if the best he can get out of Kota fucking Ibushi in a debut showing is "fine" the rest of his G1 is fucked

GO ACE!

Honestly, that could be a pretty sick spot. You ever been hit in the armpit before? That shit fucking hurts.

It would take another Stone Cold for me to give that garbage another chance

No

So this is the drawing power of former NXT superstars

He could've just said he hit him with it without being specific, would've got away with it if the camera was at a different angle

cringe

This match was as shoot style as modern NJ is going to get

Wow, Kenta claiming Ibushi for himself

hey tripfag, see

>Tanashit
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I can't wait for another Tana-Okada G1 match ended with a draw once more.

>a perfectly average match in 2019 is 4 stars now
god marks like you have completely lost the plot

If he can't deliver a good match with Okada or Ospreay then he's done

I didn't think this was bad but not that good, around 3 stars. Kenta is done

Yes
Just call it a big shot from KENTA

I'm only here for the Tanahashi match

>Okada vs Tanahashi
well I'm done with this show poop break time then UFC

>a full hour
There's a 30 minute time limit you stupid newfag

AMERICAM BADDASS

Friendly reminder B Block > A Block
All the Meltzer shitters saying otherwise just got BTFO today

Ishii, Moxley and Naito are gonna tear the house down

Tanahashi is the old guard, Okada is the cocky pup with talent who is taking over the mantle.

Who /rainmaker/ here?

Anything else?

Tana must have miss this familiar feeling of performing in front of a half empty arena during his reign of terror

Mmmmmmmm badass

Tanehashi is the John Cena of New Japan.

Tanahashit puts me to fucking sleep

Isn't Archer on A Block?
I wanna see far how that big nigga goes

I'd love to meet Tana IRL. He just seems like such a nice loveable guy.

>that cute nip photographer wet as fuck for based ACE

cody won't let him lol

What is the rivalry built on?

How do I get hair like tanahashi

BASED ACE just in time to switch to the UFC when his match ends

>Naito is going to tear the house down
Lmao. B block is going to be based, but not because of Naito

All three of their G1 matches have been time limit draws so one getting a clear victory here is a big deal.

>tfw he actually bought many random seats so it looks empty only for the sake of reminiscence
GO ACE

Okada already has taken over. Tana is so hurt he can no longer kick out of the rainmaker
Tana got lucky in their last match and won when okada was weak

Moxley can't wrestle

Hm.

Attached: ugh.jpg (369x337, 26K)

Honestly same, only realised when someone said it out loud

you would watch it

In 2012 Tanahashi was the best and most over wrestler in the world, Okada returned to Japan after a couple of years of being a geek in TNA and pinned Tanahashi for the IWGP title in a shocking title change.

They have feuded off and on ever since.

Never seen a crowd go wild like this just from the bell ringing.

And the crowd goes wild

crinfe

Okada is loving this crowd's reaction

do the cheering crowds are weird to the Japs?

Crowd is white hot right now holy shit

Of course I would. It was just a funny looking sign.

Thanks

Jesus Christ this crowd is white hot

Welcome to New Japan, baby.

I can't stand this bullshit

Attached: Yawning2.jpg (849x565, 47K)

wondering the same thing. I want to find their game thread and read the reactions

Same

Based.

Tana also humbled Okada over the years
Okada after losing at at wrestle kingdom 9 left the ring crying
they recentlybecame friends and have started tagging

I always hated this spot. I think it's too corny when both wrestlers just let the crowd jerk off like this.

I have to make the switch now

Seems to me that they enjoy it and try to milk it while they're there.

That's how you make credible superstars,WWE should relearn that stuff.

>full of pizza&beer while watching this classic
who else here /comfy/?

Tana looks a bit fat, needs to start hitting the gym again

How can you hit the gym when you have no knees

Okada, Tanahashi, or Draw?

2 hot dogs with a crown n coke.

Better that than a dead crowd

They always praise American crowds whenever I read 5ch and twitter.

A hot crowd is great, it's them standing around that I hate.

it's a upper body business brother, leg day can suck it.

Based Red Shoes

Draw or Okada

Okada

Attached: kurt-angle-taped-leg.jpg (650x400, 337K)

Red Shoes is over as fuck.

The fact the all the G1 matches with them are draws is the only thing Tana has leftover okada
okada has
>Broken most title defences and longest reign with the world title that Tana had
>Beat him in the main event of wrestle kingdom
>Ended Tana longest title reign

Tana

based crowd. shits on other indie promotions

based red shoes reminding okringe he's supposed to be the face

Tana/Okada matches are the ultimate 50/50 booking and anyone who says otherwise is a dumb drone

For me, it's Taner

That means Okada is going to win, right?

Tanahashi, babe

>other indie promotions
NJPW is not indie

Tana could use a decisive win

>GO ACE chants
This is pure.

i mean last year was a draw
they are 5-5-3
i feel like it should happen in japan but who knows
No one thought Tana would ever beat him again but he got lucky last year going up against a weaken Okada at king of pro wrestling

Time limit draw, they're not going to blow the streak this early in the G1

It's true.

You are a retard.
